ah I see what you mean, sorry it took me a while. Yes, you're right, the two are dual: "fix complexity budget then optimize data error", and "fix data error budget then optimize cx". I'm struggling to put a fi

Right, but see how the complexity budget is prescribed ahead of time: we first set the regularization strength or whatever, and then optimize the model. The result is the best model with complexity no greater than the budget. In this standa

I agree with your observation about the exact noise-free nature of the problem. It allows them to formulate the problem as "minimize complexity such that you memorize the X-y relationship exactly". This would need to be generalize

I'm trying to distill the essence of their approach, which imho is concealed behind inessential and particular details such as the choice of this or that compression scheme or prior distributions. It seems like the central innovation i

Here's GPT's own explanation what the purpose of that while loop is: --- This code uses JavaScript's `eval` function to obfuscate the code by looping over an array of strings and passing them as arguments to `eval` to create

I shall learn from this post how to disagree respectfully on the internet. Hats off.

I wonder how a modern language model would fare here -- use something like GPT-3 to evaluate the log likelihood gain of stitching together each of all N^2 possible pairs, then merge greedily best matches until none are left. Totally within

I still don't understand why this ME feature has been created to begin with. Assuming that breaking it is a matter of time (someone clever enough thinking about it for long enough), it seems like a serious security vulnerability, worse
