| | | | | [AI summary] The text discusses the representation of functions as vectors and their applications in various domains such as signal processing, geometry, and physics. It explains how functions can be treated as vectors in a vector space, leading to the concept of eigenfunctions and eigenvalues, which are crucial for understanding and manipulating signals and geometries. The text also covers different types of Laplacians, including the standard Laplacian, higher-dimensional Laplacians, and the Laplace-Beltrami operator, and their applications in fields like image compression, computer graphics, and quantum mechanics. The discussion includes spherical harmonics, which are used in representing functions on spheres, and their applications in game engines and glo... | |

| | | | | [LatexPage] In this post, I'll describe some experiments on word2vec, a technique invented by researchers at Google that aims to find compact vector representations for words in a natural language that capture natural semantic relationships between words. For example, vec("Madrid") - vec("Spain") should be close to vec("Paris") - vec("France"). I refer you to the original paper | |

| | | | | This post is a sequel to Formulating the Support Vector Machine Optimization Problem. The Karush-Kuhn-Tucker theorem Generic optimization problems are hard to solve efficiently. However, optimization problems whose objective and constraints have special structure often succumb to analytic simplifications. For example, if you want to optimize a linear function subject to linear equality constraints, one can compute the Lagrangian of the system and find the zeros of its gradient. More generally, optimizing... | |

| | | [AI summary] The provided text is a collection of comments and discussions from a blog post that originally criticized artificial neural networks (ANNs) in 2008. The comments reflect a range of opinions and debates about the relationship between machine learning (ML) and statistics, with some users defending ML techniques like support vector machines (SVMs), probabilistic graphical models, and deep learning, while others argue for the importance of statistical methods. There are also discussions about the need for better communication between disciplines, the limitations of ML approaches, and the importance of understanding the underlying assumptions of models. The text includes recommendations for textbooks and courses, such as 'All of Statistics' and Andre... | ||
