You're right that part of the problem is, indeed, theoretical (it remains to be shown that BPP ≠ BQP, even if it is widely believed to be true), but part of the problem is also physical (we need to build a model of BQP---i.e. a quant

See the above thread given in [0]. It sounds weird, but they are talking about the strong CT thesis (e.g. that all realizable models are polynomial-time-reducible to BPP), not just the usual one (that no realizable model can solve haltin

Yay! That's awesome, I'm glad (this was a bit of a problem with last year's EE364A exam, actually, since the solver for a problem was too slow, so we decided to not include it). The benchmarks are quite impressive as well! An

If the variable is constrained to be an integer, the problem becomes NP-hard-as-hell (in both a complexity sense and an approximation sense), sadly. It also stops being convex, so splitting-cone methods can't be directly applied and th

Yeah! Another way of seeing it is that the derivative is a small (infinitesimal) perturbation around a region of interest: Any input that isn't maximal will be some finite distance away from the maximum, so any small enough perturbatio

This is pretty cool; Boyd had mentioned to me something about there being a good method for solving QPs that was nicer than the usual SOCP reduction (that's horrible and pretty slow in the general case). I think this was the case he wa

I think it's not weight-by-weight equivalent. I believe that a tiny amount of Erythritol is enough to be equivalently sweet relative to a much larger amount of sugar. That being said: I'm not sure if it's enough to make it ch

Not only do I think (b) is more likely than (a), I think (b) is strictly true. I mean, our concentration is quite limited and there are optical illusions which are, perhaps even more strongly than eps-adversarial examples for a given archit

I'm not sure it's about how shallow the network is; even logistic regression can be fooled by the same techniques (e.g. 1-layer NN). That being said, maybe it does have something to do with linearity (I suspect not) or maybe it&#x

Sure, you can't claim that every machine learning system is susceptible to this attack (here's one that isn't, a model that always returns the same class on all inputs). But (apart from obvious trivialities) I suspect this

I've seen this paper enough to warrant a comment. The paper makes no reduction that the market is computing in P, so it's unclear to me how this conclusion of P=NP iff EMH is warranted by the paper. Perhaps more clearly showing th

Oh, interesting! I'm so used to reading it in papers that they're first anesthetized before being put in CO2 (along with many lab experiment that do it) that I thought that was SOP. Thanks!

You're right, but SOP for euthanizing rodents is CO2 after anesthetizing them.

Sure, two partial functions are equivalent over a set d iff they halt on the same subset of inputs and have equal outputs whenever each terminates. Then, if you could decide equality of two functions, f, g, over a finite domain d, then let
