I never get the argument that because we are not solving the entire problem at once we shouldn't make any step in the right direction. Changing mentalities is a big deal. Eventually it can trickle down to our entire way of life and mak

I made a benchmark a few months ago for a friend of mine working on computational physics. She needed to compute the determinant of a lot of matrices to perform MCMC sampling and wanted to know how much GPUs could speed up things. For this

Black produces code with more lines than yapf. Sure sometimes yapf makes very weird decision (especially when using a dictionary litteral as an argument to a function) but at least it does not use 4 lines for a list with 2 items that could

It seems hard if not impossible to prevent illegal use of profile pictures. If a web browser can access them, collecting them can be automated. Even if they are only accessible through an app on iOS or Android, you could still, on a device

Maybe Americans could start changing their way of life rather than waiting for « political will » or a never coming technological revolution. UE has started reducing CO2 emissions will keeping a very reasonable and increasing level of life.

I agree that eventually this could work because on some training examples, two related entries will be in the same bucket. However, I'm not sure this would really scale to parsing an entire book all at once like the author suggest. Whi

There is no argument for why the LSH would work well, especially at the beginning of training. As the weights are initially random, bucket assignment would be random as well. If predicting at position A requires info from position B, but

Speech source separation has gone a long way, thanks to Yi Luo amazing work. With Dual Path RNN, he now achieves almost 20 Signal to Noise Ratio for 2 speaker separation, see [1]. This is a bit of an artificial setting though, only two spea

There exists many such bases, you could also take all the monomes and approximate a function by its Taylor development. However, it does not mean that such bases can be efficiently approximated in a reasonable dimension, nor that conversion

It is a possibility that there is a natural vector space embedding for functions in which integration/derivation is a simple operation. A deep learning network could find such an embedding.
