One way to think of it is that each point in your data follows your model but with gaussian iid noise shifting them away. The likelihood is then product of gaussians mean shifted and rescaled by variance. Minimize the log-likelihood then be

My question is how much of the operations in JAX here can be done with reduced precision and can utilize training accelerators i.e. TPUs. I've noticed a lot of research coming out in physics, where everything is simulated in at least d

Few minutes in and, yep, someone is brute-forcing the forgot password.

A bit off-topic, but are there any Tailscale users here who consistently use it on mobile? How was the speed and battery life? I see that Tailscale offers a lot of nifty features like this that go beyond setting up a VPN, but if the overhea

`nb_conda_kernel` should add the kernels installed in both system and user conda environments as notebook kernels. EDIT: I meant `nb_conda_kernels` https://github.com/Anaconda-Platform/nb_conda_kernels

Even more than that, the structure of these networks imply that targeting influencers may be ineffective. There's an interview [0] with Duncan Watts discussing this. [0] Is the Tipping Point Toast? https://www.fastcompany.co

The article is a bit vague on these so I'll take a stab: Random network are generated randomly, i.e. drawn from some distribution. An example would be the Erdos-Renyi (ER) network, where edges are drawn from a Bernoulli distribution be

If I remember correctly, Mathematica started the notion of having a notebook interface when working with code, Theodore Gray even has the patent for this [0]. Even though the post reads like a longform ad for Mathematica and the Wolfram lan

I'm not sure how different this is with Cython since you can also write C/C++ code with it, and hence use any C/C++ libraries. I say that the benefit offered by the example is more of bringing the Rust ecosystem to Python tha

For the new AMD releases there's none yet, but for Ryzen 7 Phoronix did one comparison for code compiled with -mavx2 and Ryzen did really poorly. The other benchmarks which use more integer math or relies heavily in multithreading puts

People are currently discussing about the legal implications of storing images coming from federated Mastodon instances. A lot of this stems from an influx of users at pawoo.net, a Mastodon instance set up by Pixiv, posting CP and CP-like c

To comment on Apple's "cloud first" strategy, while they do provide local file storage in their APIs, their guideline suggests avoiding creating an option for storing local files since users "expect all of their files to

My rule of thumb is to always have a healthy dose of skepticism regardless of how a study was published, whether in a peer-reviewed journal, preprints, or even a blog post. About bleeding edge research, publishing machine learning methods i

I'm not the author, but I can happily provide some practical applications to his discussion of dynamical systems and chaos. One of the nice application of the logistic equation is its use as a simple model for population dynamics. In f
