    Do any of you study electronics at implementation level? Would it be useful for programmers?

    Particularly, do you think that having a view on "computation on electronics" is useful for people who "have mainly only dealt with software computation"? Or would you say that "while they're related, they are different".

    This question has come to my mind, because I've been thinking about DSP and whether it's "more of a hardware thing or a software thing". And my perception has become that "in DSP, the hardware seems to be only 'means to realize', but not 'what to realize'". This view makes hardware seem "means to an end" and software "much more significant in terms of practical value". And then I would not know, whether electronics per se can offer "insightful views on computation" that could not be thought "at abstract level"?

    As a lot of electronics design is done in software nowadays, then this could also suggest that "software = electronics without hardware".

    Opinions about computational geometry, complexity theory, machine learning and algorithms in general

    Posted: 19 May 2020 04:26 PM PDT

    Hi everybody, I'm a CS student and I'm highly interested in develop an academic life. I love algorithms, data structures and theoretical CS. In this year I have to select a topic for make my graduation proyect, but I'm blocked because I don't know what to choose. Recently I've been interested in computational geometry, but none of my professors works in this, so I would like to receive an opinion from somebody who work in this field. Is it too mathematical and have a low amount of algorithms? How hard is to grow academically in that topic? Is hard make papers on it? I ask this because I'm a little afraid that computational geometry turns to be a topic more apropiate for mathematicians. Also I would like to know if some of you have experience in the complexity theory too(same questions). I know that machine learning can be more friendly with CS people, but I'm not too interested on that

    [R] Google Introduces ‘Meta-Dataset’ Benchmark for Few-Shot Learning | ICLR 2020

    Posted: 19 May 2020 04:46 PM PDT

    In a paper published at ICLR 2020 this month, Google AI researchers introduce Meta-Dataset, a large-scale and diverse benchmark for measuring the ability of few-shot classification models. The team also proposes a new set of baselines to quantify the benefit of meta-learning in Meta-Dataset with ten publicly available datasets including ImageNet, CUB-200–2011, Describable Textures, Quick Draw, Fungi, VGG Flower, Traffic Signs, and MSCOCO.

    Here is a quick read: Google Introduces 'Meta-Dataset' Benchmark for Few-Shot Learning

    The project code is open-sourced and further information available on the GitHub project page. The paper Meta-Dataset: A Dataset of Datasets for Learning to Learn from Few Examples is on arXiv.

    Courses Choices

    Posted: 19 May 2020 09:21 AM PDT

    Right now I'm choosing my University courses for next year and it's my first year. I was wondering which courses I should take the would be most related to computer science and programming languages. As there are courses as physics or calculus but I don't think they would benefit me later on so what courses I must take ?

    [R] Facebook’s Highly Efficient New Real-Time Text-To-Speech System Runs on CPUs

    Posted: 19 May 2020 12:59 PM PDT

    To deliver human-level voices to its platform's billions of users while maintaining strict compute efficiency, Facebook AI researchers have deployed a new neural TTS system that works on CPU servers. The model attains a 160x speedup over the company baseline while retaining state-of-the-art audio quality.

    I want to confirm if I understand the halting problem.

    Posted: 19 May 2020 04:08 PM PDT

    resources I used for research
    https://www.reddit.com/r/explainlikeimfive/comments/2ec9hv/eli5_the_halting_problem_in_computer_science/

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=macM_MtS_w4

    I have a few question about the halting problem.

    The halting problem is the idea is that a machine for every computer program that can tells me if the program halts or does not halts. I then feed the output of the machine as input into the same machine.

    So the input that is fed into the machine gives me halt or infinite loop.

    The second time I feed the information into the machine I get again two results.

    The results are if an infinite loop it it halts. The other result is if it halts it goes into an infinite loop.

    Why is this a big deal? Is it because I can't gather any information if the final results is an infinite loop?

    I have further questions but will start from here.

    I understand code a little but have not coded in a while so I may be rusty.

    Anxiety with Comp Sci degree

    Posted: 19 May 2020 10:28 AM PDT

    You can take a look at my post history and see how much I've been stressing over this.

    I plan on attending a community college, after which I'd like to transfer to an accredited university. However, in order for this to be applicable, I must complete certain requirements with a B at most.

    These requirements are:

    First-year: Calc 1, Calc 2, Linear Algebra

    Second-year: Calc 3, Differential Eq, Discreet Math.

    As I am not well acquainted with mathematics (yet), can someone please tell me if this even humanly possible for the reasonably determined and average minded?

    Has it been proven that you can do computations with any type of wave?

    Posted: 19 May 2020 02:06 PM PDT

    I was thinking about how I read the vaccuum of space can be thought of as a collection of quantum harmonic oscillators. Since oscillators are closely related to waves and if waves are capable of computation that means the vaccuum is capable of computation as well. The only thing missing is a proof that you can use any type of wave to compute things. To do this you would need to construct logic gates/circuits from waves. Anyone know how to do this?

    So I want to release my 99% compression algorithm but I also want to make a little bit of cash for it ��

    How do I release my algorithm and make a little bit of money from it not too much just enough
