I haven't thought it through, but feedback lets you do a few (perhaps connected?) things: 1. explore a trade-off between gain and bandwidth, 2. Reject disturbances and nonlinearities. So you could have a high gain but "low precisi

How does this relate to linear(/affine) as in e.g. y = mx (+ b) ?

That's really valid only in the case when the frequency response and the impulse response completely characterize a system--that is, only for linear and time-invariant systems. I know you covered this base by mentioning nonlinear disto

can you explain how that's different from toasting bread or roasting vegetables to someone who has a weak understanding of chemistry and what makes molecules harmful?

to clarify your [1], if I take two connected devices, unplug the cable, and plug it back in, reversing each of the two plugs, then that is a different configuration from what I started with?

You sound very passionate. "A few decades should do" to what? Make an example out of them? For restorative justice? To get back at them? To keep society safe from them?

Okay, but it doesn't make sense to me how a plane deviating (somehow) in order not to collide with a drone would affect any other plane. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_(aeronautics)

I agree that "1=2" would maybe cause more confusion. How about "x + 1 = x + 2".

I had never thought about the importance of being self-hosting like that. I missed the point about the camel case name. In any case, it's marketed as LabVIEW (VIEW standing for Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench), not LabView.

Perhaps they meant "data efficient" as opposed to "computationally efficient".

I think it's because, while "covers" is countable, you have a sort of continuous control of how much cover you have.

Just to clarify, it was O(n^2) for n the length of the string, not the number of statuses. Right?

Here are some (I thought helpful) comments regarding some of the tools you mentioned https://github.com/logpy/logpy/issues/24#issuecomment-269444...

In terms of implementation, what are you not quite agreeing with?

but perhaps not too much: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9189553

That's equivalent to fixed point, right?

I'll clarify mostly for my sake (I hadn't thought about this before) f(x) = 1/x takes takes numbers in the range (-1, 1) to numbers outside that range, and vice versa. The representable floats are split evenly between those t

It is most definitely not. For starters, you could also have argued that ε^2/ε = 0 since the numerator is 0.

Why does encoding of discrete-time signals have to do with Lebesgue integrals?

Learning a human's actions in most cases is probably a supervised learning problem. But in that case, you actually don't even want to look at the rewards. You just want to know what a human did given a specific scenario. However,

You can never use 1950s control theory to solve your problem? I think you didn't understand the my comment, so please let me clarify: I was claiming that even the control problems in this RC-car-lane-keeping domain can benefit from lea

by gugagore 10y ago
Are you disagreeing with my comment? Or stating that I should have included additional points in my comment? In any case I think I understand your comment, that in addition to the control problem, there's a perception problem.

I think it's important to ponder that a PID controller is , in almost every case it is used, a heuristic controller which achieves pretty mediocre performance. Unless the plant is second-order linear system, with constant gains, and ma

I agree with you. If you can leverage control theory from the 1950s to solve your problem, what's the point? However, I will state that using e.g. Lyapunov functions to prove the stability of the system requires a model of the system.

The melody for Still Alive at the end has a differing note for "it's hard to oVER state my satisfaction". Still sounds good!

and since we are nit-picking, Nyquist-Shannon doesn't have anything to say about quantized samples.

Okay, fine. "harmful assumptions".

When you are not careful to avoid making assumptions about people's disabilities, don't you think that's equivalently bad, intentional?

Who are you trying to be fair to right now?

To be clearer, I should have included "these researchers". I don't have a low opinion of researchers.
