Congratulations, Deeplab 3+ finally discovered that the U-net architecture, first proposed 3 years ago, is more efficient than the flat architecture they used before. Deeplab 3+ is still a wildly inefficient network structure, but it undeni

There is one thing that stops me from using Safari (or Chrome/Opera) on Mac OS: the lack of middle-click autoscrolling. Firefox lets me do a triple-finger tap and then scroll a page smoothly at a consistent pace. This is wonderful for

Because that allows you to capture a complete, scrollable website as a single png image. OS tools only let you capture the currently viewable area.

One thing to note is that most cameras use 12 or 14 bit sensors, so in-sensor digital gain can still be better than post-processing.

Indeed, but if performance is affected so much by the initialisation, then I would avoid random initialisation in the first place. There are various publications exploring different initialisation methods for various problems. I'm afra

When using a single GPU, as is the case here, you will not be able to saturate a TB2 slot in any reasonable deep learning workload. For multiple GPUs, sure, PCIe performance matters, but for single GPUs it is not a bottleneck for any practi

Extremely so. My current (and only) working solution is to disable the Nvidia GPU on a host and use it PCIe passthrough to assign it to another Linux or Windows VM. That's the only stable solution that doesn't break the world when
