I'm not sure if you're responding to my claim that it doesn't mean power. I agree that it means "watch over". Like physical "above-ness".

I don't think "sur-" necessarily means "more power". Here's a bunch of sur-prefixed words in French: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Category:French_words_prefixe... My favorite so far on t

I think you are thinking about this the wrong way. nilpotence doesn't relate to smoothness (of what) and differentiability (of what). Dual numbers happen to, the way I see it, model forward-mode differentiation. There are a couple of

There's something that feels different about that. You're talking about the rate of some event occurring (like a Poisson process), and measuring how many occurrences are in an interval (a year). What are the 6 samples you are coll

That's the case when you think the measurement noise is only positive. But are there kinds of noise that reduce your benchmark time? On one hand, I believe a piece of code has a true benchmark time, but we only measure noisy versions t

Do you know if there's work on adapting to the vehicle dynamics on the fly? The comment about tires degrading made me thing that there should be some parameters in the model corresponding to how degraded the tires are, and instead of r

I think the (or perhaps only one) key phrase is "beamforming". A single microphone element has a certain sensitivity pattern (e.g. it may be a very directional microphone, or be equally sensitive in all directions). With multiple

Maybe I don't see your point, but an iOS app could execute code locally. The only risk is the device owner could compromise the device. There is no [additional] risk of another user doing so.

I think what I found most lacking in this video is that data did not play a role in the overview. The presenter discusses that a ton of computation is needed to do deep learning, but doesn't explain why. And really, it's because t

I love knowing about Lie algebras and groups, but I think I disagree about the "because". The matrix exponential and logarithm just are. You can define and compute them without invoking anything about Lie groups. I didn't kno

It's beautiful to see that the logarithm of a rotation matrix is a skew-symmetric matrix. The skew-symmetric matrices correspond to angular velocity, which behave like vectors. You can add and interpolate as you expect. Rotation matric

I don't think the parent was suggesting that what makes your ear hot is RF.(of course it's conduction from a hot phon and lack of ventilation). They were suggesting, I think, that cancer can arise from having frequent hot ear, reg

Aren't these embeddings task-specific? For example a word2vec embedding is found by letting the embedder participate in a task to predict a word given words around it, on a particular corpus of text. The embedding of sentences are trai

I'm not sure I followed, but I thought that the standard approach was to only store a quarter of a cycle (0 to pi/2) in the LUT, and use symmetry to generate the rest of the cycle. Is the advantage of having two LUTs that you can

presumably, source-to-source "AD" could do some symbolic reasoning (whether any systems do, and whether it still counts as AD, I don't actually know). Specifically, I have in mind a source-to-source system that could look a

It might be that the triangle is big enough (relative to, say, the radius of the sphere) that that approximation doesn't apply.

I think it may also be the case that (old-school, non-concatenated but generated) synthesized speech, with practice, is more intelligible at higher speeds than natural speech. The sounds are more distinct and consistent.

If I may emphasize your point, the frequency reference doesn't come from a neurological time-keeping mechanism. Instead it comes from physical resonance. So it is definitely still a "clock". It's like having many pendulu
