I would say that the main purpose of communication is to give a universal understanding of abstract ideas. An abstraction is, for my...

A convex set is a subset of a Euclidian (more specifically an Affine space), one in which the line between any two points in that subset...

One thing that kind of goes unquestioned in the deep learning and reinforcement learning community is an agent having a fixed...

We are taught to study the way things behave as a function of time. We organize our days by the hours, we write our functions with...

The fundamental problem with supervised learning is that the learning of the optimal latent representation of the input data and the...

I think it is important to realize that before anything else, deep learning and computer science are truly mathematical fields of study....

Does the sun go around the earth or does the earth go around the sun? You would surely answer that the earth goes around the sun - but...

In transportation engineering, there is a phenomenon called user equilibrium. As engineers, we will change a transportation structure in...

Meaninglessness is the most neutral thing there is, the word has no negative or positive connotation. Meaning is a really fundamental...

Cop lights, flashlights, spotlights, strobe lights, street lights… out of all of the lights we could talk about today I want to focus on...

One of the most popular uses for a standard autoencoder is for data compression. If I have a picture of a whale on my phone and I want to...

Auto-encoders use two features. The first is the reconstruction element, which ensures that the data in an encoded state is still...

One of my main goals is to get machines to look at the world like a human. I make inferences about how we think about things from our...

I feel great about finishing my final project, so releaving, and just looking at my paper I feel proud of myself for accomplishing this....

Looking ahead in the context of my future being purely a programmer, it honestly seems pretty dreary. I can’t see myself happy coding and...

I don't really constrain myself to talking about or thinking about things specific to computer sceince, but somehow it always drifts back...

I think that to some extent or another, we are indeed programmed. From the celestial forces behind evolution to the way your parents...
