    Foundation of mathematical logic in a nutshell

    Posted: 21 Aug 2020 09:27 AM PDT

    If context switching was random in an Operating System, would that decrease or increase the efficiency of that operating system? And, why?

    Posted: 22 Aug 2020 01:42 AM PDT

    https://science.jrank.org/computer-science/Multitasking_Operating_Systems.html

    This says that random context switching will decrease the efficiency.

    CPU efficiency= useful time/(useful+useless time)

    useless time=time spent in switching/overhead.

    Build a Real-Time Face Detecting Web App using Javascript and Face-api.js!!!

    Posted: 22 Aug 2020 01:24 AM PDT

    You can read the complete step by step tutorial here on my blog - thecodingpie.com

    The finished version can do something like this!!!

    In this tutorial, you will build a Real-Time Face Detection Javascript Web App that can access your webcam and identifies your facial expressions, face landmarks, and much much more inside the browser!!!

    I tried my best to make this tutorial fun and friendly. So fear not! If you got stuck, I am always here to help you :) As always, any feedback is accepted...

    Is there a name for the things a language needs on top of being 'Turing complete' to be practical?

    Posted: 21 Aug 2020 12:02 PM PDT

    Any language that is Turing complete can perform every possible (computable) calculation.

    Most general-purpose programming languages are Turing complete. However, they usually have a lot of other things as well, to be useful for 'general-purpose' work, like reading/writing files, interacting with the keyboard and/or mouse, drawing to screen, interacting with other computers over a wire, etc.

    Many of these things are provided by a Kernel (or other parts of the Operating System), and implemented differently under the hood depending on the architecture the language runs on.

    Is if there is a name for the extra set of (common) capabilities that languages used in practice have, on top of being 'Turing complete'.

    Thank you! :-)

    Reference(s) for Byzantine fault tolerance?

    Posted: 22 Aug 2020 04:26 AM PDT

    I am starting my work in Byzantine fault tolerant algorithms and their randomized solutions. Is there a current reference such as a textbook or lecture notes which covers the topic with sufficient emphasis on randomization? Thanks!

    [R] Using Deep RL to Model Human Locomotion Control in Neuromechanical Simulations

    Posted: 21 Aug 2020 02:04 PM PDT

    In the new paper Deep Reinforcement Learning for Modeling Human Locomotion Control in Neuromechanical Simulation, researchers from Stanford University, UC Berkeley and CMU review neuromechanical simulations and DRL, with a focus on modelling the control of human locomotion. Many biomechanics and motor control researchers have studied motor control models using neuromechanical simulations, which enable physically correct motions in a musculoskeletal model for the purpose of analyzing the observed human motions. However, the team notes that DRL has rarely been applied in neuromechanical simulations to model human locomotion control, suggesting this has hindered the development of accurate motion prediction models.

    Instruction costs resource

    Posted: 21 Aug 2020 11:57 AM PDT

    So I know one may argue that perhaps you shouldn't worry about this because it is practically negligible, but in my circumstances this is not the case.

    I am dealing with images and video at the moment so millions of operations. I want to use the fastest instructions I can to cut costs wherever possible since time is of the essence. I know some instructions are faster than others--some are very obviously so e.g. shift right versus integer divide by two. But other times, it is not so clear (using shift and addition versus using divide, for example). Are there any resources that specify these things, or do you just have to test it out yourself. I was just wondering.
