    (How to calculate) False positivity rate of lookup when using a pair of fingerprints of hashes

    Posted: 03 Jun 2020 02:51 AM PDT

    I thought of a data structure (let's call it twin fingerprints) similar to cuckoo filters that I hope might beat cuckoo filters for very low rates of false positives (think 10-13).

    The idea: For every entry, we calculate two hashes (makes collisions highly unlikely, similar to cuckoo filters) and store the two fingerprints (of f bits) of the hashes (in order to save space) as a pair.

    In order to calculate whether this idea has merit, I need to answer the following question: Given n entries and fingerprints of f bits. For a number m not in the list, how likely is it to yield a pair of fingerprints that is in the list (= false positive lookup)? I am aware that the hash functions will play a role in this, but I don't know what their role in this calculation will be either.

    A closed formula would be great, but I am gratefull for any resource or pointer! I don't want to dig deep if I don't have too, but if I have, I would work through the subsection "hashes" in my copy of "Concrete Mathematics" and/or through the analysis of the cuckoo filter paper from 2004.


    Lookup by going through a list of pairs is horribly slow! Yes, in practise I would use a hashmap for that. For the purpose of simplification, I stated that we use a list of pairs, since my primary concerns is the chance of a false positive lookup.

    This is just a cuckoo filter in bad! I hope not! Like a cuckoo filter, we use two hash functions. However, cuckoo filters only use one hash function, and their main purpose is to find the position of the fingerprint. We don't use the hashes as a guide on the entries' position, but as seeds for the fingerprint pair (hopefully, a very compact, yet very distinct representation). The hope is that instead using a single long fingerprint to achieve a low rate of false positives, we can achieve the same low rate of false positives using a pair of two short fingerprints with the implicit knowledge that both fingerprints belong to the same entry.

    Today, organizers of the 34th Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS 2020) announced extending the paper submission deadline by 48 hours. The new deadline is Friday, June 5, 2020, at 1 pm PDT.

    Here is a quick read: NeurIPS Extends Paper Submission Deadline In Support of Black Community

    Chat with a question-answering AI based on Banned Books - or watch the results live!

    Posted: 02 Jun 2020 07:22 PM PDT

    I fed an AI context from banned books, from serial killers to Noam Chomsky to the occult and strange to some fairly complex manifestos.

    Note - it's a question answering bot, not a chatbot. It has no context from your previous questions, and it's simply answering whatever new question it's given. It has no sense of 'self' and doesn't get questions like 'Have you read Brave New World?' (which also isn't a banned book, mind you).

    Have a try: http://jare.cloud/banned-books-bot/

    CS student here. What are must-have technical skills?

    Posted: 02 Jun 2020 06:38 AM PDT

    Hi, I'm a rising sophomore in UG right now. I don't know a ton of CS but I'm becoming more interested in it and might potentially switch majors to CS. I have a few questions.

    1. What are some technical skills needed as a CS Major? I'm thinking algorithms, some data science, web/app development, machine learning, stuff like that. What are those categories and sub-categories kinda things. What languages, skills basically.
    2. What kinds of skills do internships look for in UG students? I guess this kind of overlaps with #1.
    3. Also, what's the best way to learn these? I heard of codecadamy and stuff but I'm not sure what's best.

    Thanks so much. :-)
