I have a history of publishing in computational physics. But that's beside the point. I have an exciting new result in digital signal processing and I would like to get retroactively funded for the work. If researchers…
6-7 figures. IDK if this is realistic, but it seems reasonable to me considering the cost and risk involved in reproducing this work from scratch (salary/benefits/overhead for a research group or individual; no…
Certainly. It also helps a resume. And if that is the only value to the work, then so be it. But there is a reason why R&D departments and universities publish AND protect generated IP. They want returns on investment.…
Yes, of course. When I write "pay me to publish" I don't mean "cover the costs of publication", I mean "fund my work".
I am an independent researcher currently funded by a part-time job and a very supportive spouse. I play with algorithms and have discovered a new fast Fourier transform and a neural network growth+training algorithm…
I would like to see solutions (for professionals) that ditch the whole generative part altogether. If it's so good at finding references or identifying relevant passages in large corpora, just show the references. As…
I think I agree with you, but democratizing distribution is still orthogonal to the piracy problem. On the one hand, I'm more likely to pay an artist if the only official way I can get their art is to purchase from…
> Source: I’ve been thinking about this “everything is released for free once the artist is paid” approach for a while... You should start a "media label" then. Take a cut of the threshold payment for (1) vetting and…
I think many proposed solutions to the creator compensation problem end up glossing over a fundamental difficulty: once an easily-distributed work (like anything digital) is in a consumable state (and thus copy-able),…
I look at this thing and can't help thinking "where will someone set down their coffee mug when their hands are full and they need to open the door?" There isn't a flat surface on it.
The time stretch algorithm is implemented in https://github.com/audacity/audacity/blob/master/libraries/l... particularly functions _time_stretch and _process_hop. It looks to me like a classic phase vocoder with…
I have a simple rule for GUI design: build trees not graphs. Write components that accept a state snapshot and broadcast changes. If component A listens for state changes from B, then A is a parent node of B. If A sends…
An audio encoder. The resulting format has simple compression parameters and will be optimized for time-stretching/pitch-shifting. The format is really nothing special; it is based on a sinusoids + noise model. The…
On a related note, I highly recommend Sean Carroll's series of videos: The Biggest Ideas in the Universe [0]. The fine structure constant comes up in the 10th video on Interactions [1]. [0]…
> To assess co-evolution you need a multiple sequence alignment between protein homologs containing correlated mutations. That makes sense. So in the CASP competition, when teams are given a sequence, do their…
> I don't think I fully understood this, but I'll give it a shot anyway. If your artificial sequence aligns with others, there's a chance that it will fold like them, depending on the quality and accuracy of the…
In case anyone is interested in yet another alternative, I have this old, unpolished project: https://github.com/bauerca/jv It is a JSON parser in C without heap allocations. The query language is piddly, but the tool…
To the extent that algebra courses consist of solving # + x = # over and over again, I agree that they are mostly useless. In life, algebraic questions don't come at you in symbols and numbers, they come in words. And I…
