My understanding from the discussion part, section 5 of the linked paper, is that the GAN could be modified so that the relative power of the discriminator and generator is fine tunned in order to generate hard to detect images, by giving

From the paper: (1) We show that when the correct steps are taken, classifiers are indeed robust to common operations such as JPEG compression, blurring, and resizing. (2) When using Photoshop like methods the detector performs at chance (i

Using Kolmogorov Complexity and then using PCA is not valid since you are approximating a solution and Kolmogorov Complexity is for exact solutions. Anyway perhaps there is, or should be defined, a signal/noise Kolmogorov Complexity me

Just a reflection about this: Could a modification of this backscattering technique be used so that hundred of this devices use the same channel to transmit a set?, I am thinking about collecting the information of hundred of devices each

In the paper there are some bounds about the number of states in the automata as a function of the length of the input. So one could limit the length of the input when using back references to bound the complexity of the algorithm. They hav

if you call a function in the form module:function-name then erlang detect and use the latest compiled version of the module, if you use function-name without the module then the old version is used. Is advised to use the module:function-n

In erlang the code is compiled to an intermmediate representation for a virtual machine, BEAM (erlang virtual machine), usually the functions you define are very short and in this case the BEAM code is sent over the network, so the univers

I agree with you, the phrase should be preceded with: Caution, this is a math joke, don't lose sleep trying to grok it.

I wonder what's the point of using such a phrase, it doesn't help you to grok the concept of monad. It can help you to know that someone has given a new definition to sound cute, shame on them. By the way I admire MacLane as a ma

The definition of a monoid here is not the usual definition, is a new definition for the special case of a strict category as defined MacLane's Book Categories for the Working Mathematicean. Since you maybe thinking about composition

It seems you learned from the decline of Perl, so you have the experience of a warrior. But Rhombus represents the hope of a better future for Racket, so another step in this fight should be to embrace the future and learn from the past, I

Thanks, nice. bytes.fromhex is really reading bytes from a hex string, so perhaps a better name should be bytes.fromhexstring, but since python names are short I understand the trade-off. Also, my first impression is that hex should be call

About the work you cite, I think that double descent is simply because the extra number of parameters (low bias) used produces a large variance when the input data is small, but as more data is introduced the extra parameters don't pla

The critique is about the importance of priors in BNN. In my humble understanding of Bayesian reasoning the argument to defend any prior is that with enought data the learning method converges to the real distribution, so if the result o

The example of misuse of the CLT illustrates that a mixture of normals is not a normal distribution. For example the height of people is a mixture of two normals, one for men and the other for women, this mixture has two modes and so it
