What's your favorite computer science topic?
Right now I'm learning a ton... Entropy, compression, functional programming, genetic algorithms and genetic programming, artificial neural networks, k-nn classification, clustering, Bayesian stuff... Just a ton of stuff to be really excited about! What's some neat stuff you guys have learned about?
- rob-alarcon 14y agoMachine Learning
- kombinatorics 14y agoThis + Data Mining & Neural Networking.
- nayefc 14y ago^^ agreed.
- voidlogic 14y agoSystems Software (OS, VMs, Compilers, etc)
- nayefc 14y agoUsed to be a huge fan. After implementing an educational OS, I lost interest.
- opminion 14y agoInformation theory and its relationship with probability, learning and inference, and with theory of computation. The reason is that Algorithmic Information Theory provides a unifying view. Not terribly practical, though, but neat.
- tagabek 14y agoIn school: Java (Not really a 'topic') On my own: Objective-C, iOS Development, Native Mobile Development, Object-Oriented Programming, Memory Management, Human & Mobile Computer Interaction It's safe to assume that I am really excited about the mobile world. I still love my laptop and plan on building a desktop next year; but iOS, Android, and Windows RT fascinate me. It may sound weird, but I love watching how people interact with their mobile devices. I always ask people which apps they like, what phone they are using/want, and what they would like to have that DOESN'T EXIST. As a developer, I find it both intriguing and useful to know what others want out of the software that is accessible to them. Other Interests: Idealistic Virtual Reality, The Economics of Bitcoins, Mobile Battery Efficiency
- mcartyem 14y agoMine is compilers. Which is another way of saying: automating; reducing the work I have to do manually.
- rtcoms 14y agodata structures and algorithms
- codemonkeymike 14y agoThis. Basis of all CS and I went through school without learning it.
