The claim that “tourism has little financial benefits to the local economy in Venice” is debatable and context-dependent. Here's a detailed breakdown addressing both why the claim may be true in some aspects, and why it…
Algebra geometry view makes sense to me. Considering ML as a learning to approximate scheme algorithm. Tensor representation is similar to the SDP trick achieving the optimal max-sat approximation. The difference is…
US was wiser than others because we were able to look at our mistakes and fix them admirably. It's only a weak character who tries to demonize others in exchange for self-comforting. Sadly, I'm seeing more and more…
To be honest, many potential murders sacrifice themselves so much that I can live safely. I really should have thanked them for not killing me.
https://promo.guahao.com/en/global/pneumonia/?_cp=yhcbz0315 It seems that a lot of Chinese doctors volunteer to consult on this coronavirus. Not sure whether they are helpful or not.
Exactly. a+b should be the same as a.add.b A high level programming language should be designed for communication instead of dictating the computations.
Supervised learning algorithms assume that the input data are iid of the future. This is not valid in most of the real applications. The observation that we see men more than women in programming does not necessarily…
The fear is that jobs left to humans are those low level ones. Technology divide up the society into elites who control machines and labors who is controlled by machines. And gradually, the elites become less and less…
Python does have a lot of problems, but it's so far the most flexible language like English. High level programming language is meant to communicate, not to dictate the computation. Python happens to be easy to…
Most of human knowledge are represented in logic. Semantic web is designed from description logic. A less powerful logic than first order logic.
It seems odd to me that they ended up computing the average of the word vectors which is way too simple to represent meaning. Similarity metric over this semantic vector is not accurate.
HK has been in a bad economic situation for many years. Without mainland China's support, it's even worse. The tension in the HK society is at the breaking point. Young generation has less opportunities to improve their…
I prefer a user driven random walk. Like a multi-arm bandit over a hierarchical graph instead of a stuck-in-local-minimun + noise recommender. But no one does it. Years ago, there is an app stumble upon. I always find…
I am not sure that I get the definition of skill right. Does classifying hot dog or not count as a unique skill or not? Or does object detection count as one skill? Intelligence is hard to measure. It's personal and…
Agree. Most of program languages are context free. Human language is mostly context dependent. The auto completion and auto suggestion are the tools to close the gaps of the user experience. Moreover, human…
Good comment. A truly ideological person with high moral ground should help instead of blame. Media's double standard is a deal with evil.
This is a less studied senario for time series research: contextual forecasting. With enough contextual information, forecasting doesn't need to squeeze the information from its own history that hard.
CNN is essentially a FT with learnable kernels.
Relational algebra didn't evolved into a relational programming language. SQL is merely a query language. The recursion is horribly done and there is no type systems. Imagine this, Friends(a: Person, b: Person) defines…
Most people have their own domains and don't want to make softwares. But their jobs depend on softwares sometimes. When the software developers don't understand the domain, it's reasonable to provide a DSL for users to…
Most of the time, the surrogate metrics align with the unknown metrics when they are small, e.g. 80%. They can start to diverge at 90% for example. When I see people report a .5% improvement over a 98% accuracy and…
Exactly, the high dimensionality is very difficult to grasp for regular people. The nonlinearity of AI models makes the situation even worse.
One key question is whether symbolic AI is the right model of the world. It underperforms vector based AI on many specific tasks. But human experts heavily reply on it to communicate with each other. If symbolic AI is…
Extreme Islamic is a difficult problem to deal with globally. Look at Israel, they are taking extreme measure too. Historically, this extreme ideology comes from Western culture. Both Christian and Islamic are exclusive…
Unfortunately Capitalism is not Democracy. Capitalism serves a set of dictators instead of one dictator.
