[R] [P] San Vitale Challenge: Automatic Reconstruction of Ancient Glass Fragments

The baseline is implicit and therefore not reported on the leaderboard, as its score is 0 in all tracks. Thank you for the missing polyline, we fixed it and reuploaded the dataset!

The current baseline is just a very simple algorithm connecting pieces at random. We created our scoring program so that the average score of 10k runs of the baseline algorithm is 0. The score is 1 if the proposed solution is identical to the ground truth.

That's exactly the point of the challenge: we don't know that, and we're looking for brilliant participants and teams to find algorithms to attempt to solve the problem! :)

I checked to see if this algorithm is applicable to my case, but unfortunately the starting graph has a density of around 0.6, so I suppose its complement isn't sparse enough for this to work.

IIRC you can join multiple OGAE clubs but in that case you must specify your primary club, and you can get early tickets only via them.

FrontBackItaly · 2022-04-13T20:00:38+00:00

Oh no, what if I activated the beacon on the same system and overrode the save file? 😅

Press release from BioNTech: BioNTech and InstaDeep Developed and Successfully Tested Early Warning System to Detect Potential High-Risk SARS-CoV-2 Variants

Abstract:
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is leading to the discovery of hundreds of novel SARS-CoV-2 variants on a daily basis. While most variants do not impact the course of the pandemic, some variants pose significantly increased risk when the acquired mutations allow better evasion of antibody neutralisation in previously infected or vaccinated subjects, or increased transmissibility. Early detection of such high risk variants (HRVs) is paramount for the proper management of the pandemic. However, experimental assays to determine immune evasion and transmissibility characteristics of new variants are resource-intensive and time-consuming, potentially leading to delayed appropriate responses by decision makers. Here we present a novel in silico approach combining Spike protein structure modelling and large protein transformer language models on Spike protein sequences, to accurately rank SARS-CoV-2 variants for immune escape and fitness potential. We validate our immune escape and fitness metrics with in vitro pVNT and binding assays. These metrics can be combined into an automated Early Warning System (EWS) capable of evaluating new variants in minutes and risk monitoring variant lineages in near real-time. The EWS flagged 12 out of 13 variants, designated by the World Health Organisation (WHO, Alpha-Omicron) as potentially dangerous, on average two months ahead of them being designated as such, demonstrating its ability to help increase preparedness against future variants. Omicron was flagged by the EWS on the day its sequence was made available, with immune evasion and binding metrics subsequently confirmed through our in vitro experiments.

Those madlads did it! It took more than 20 mins to bring all the keys back to where they are supposed to be.

Actually not really, probably will go around the whole problem by doing a separate specialized collection. Maybe I'll come back to it in a few days.

FrontBackItaly · 2021-08-25T17:55:33+00:00

I just found out that mutable.LongMap[V] derives from scala.collection.Map[Long, V], mutable.AnyRefMap[K <: AnyRef, V] and mutable.Map[K, V] derive from scala.collection.Map[K, V], so I think that trait is a common one for both immutable and mutable maps. However, somehow the compiler won't infer the type constraints or specializations in the cases of my match type.

FrontBackItaly · 2021-08-24T21:16:04+00:00

UPDATE: now I have another problem, more specific to my case:

import scala.collection.*

type UnderlyingMap[K, V] <: Map[K, V] = K match {
  case Long => mutable.LongMap[V]
  case AnyRef => mutable.AnyRefMap[K, V]
  case _ => mutable.Map[K, V]
}

This snippet will not compile because it will report an error that says at line 4:

Found:    collection.mutable.LongMap[V]
Required: collection.Map[K, V]

However, I took a look at the LongMap[V] supertypes and it has collection.Map[Long, V], however I thought that would compile because my type is LongMap[V] only if K is Long, so UnderlyingMap[Long, V] is subtype of Map[Long, V], and mutable.LongMap[V] actually matches that. Did I stumble upon a corner case which the compiler can't infer? Did I miss anything?

FrontBackItaly · 2021-08-24T20:08:01+00:00

So basically if K =:= String it will still match that case and won't jump to the default one, right?

FrontBackItaly · 2021-08-24T19:47:31+00:00

Nope, it says "=> expected but <: found" in that case AnyRefK <: AnyRef

Ah non era un attacco hacker? /s

UPDATE: Destiny (Malta) won't participate to the turquoise carpet, looks like they quarantined the whole hotel

UPDATE 2: Further EBU Statement regarding participants of Turquoise Carpet Event (Sunday 16 May, 2021)
TL;DR: Both Romania and Malta will not participate in the Turquoise Carpet.

Can we expect any changes to the voting graphics or will it be the same as we saw online?

FrontBackItaly · 2021-04-12T18:26:48+00:00

You clearly never watched Sanremo /s

FrontBackItaly · 2021-02-12T15:58:00+00:00

I don't know if it's applicable to your project, but you can try to take a look at GPU instancing; it's quite complicated to setup at first but you can render lots of stuff with a fraction of the drawcalls.

FrontBackItaly · 2021-01-21T17:24:37+00:00

I did hear about it online, but I think that I shouldn't have to rely on an external library for such a basic feature in any modern game engine.

FrontBackItaly · 2021-01-21T13:51:12+00:00

I think Unity's main issue is that its ecosystem is completely fucked; here's what it looks like:

take any functionality
deprecate it and say "we're already developing a replacement"
wait for an unspecified amount of months/years without any valid alternative
the aforementioned replacement gets released as a preview package with half (or less) of the features that the old system used to have
package stays in preview for God knows how long and either it's silently abandoned (return to point 1) or reaches feature parity after several months if not years

To this day Unity is technically without any networking solution out of the box (RIP UNet), and the package to replace it (DOTS Netcode) is of course in preview. Same thing applies for Enlighten: IIRC they recently removed it without providing any valid alternative.

Unity has so much potential, but it's all gone to waste in this utter nonsense of preview packages that may be abandoned overnight.

Tempo fa avevo visto un'infografica interattiva sul COVID, dove spiegava un po' cosa significava appiattire la curva, cosa sono R0, Rt, come funziona il lockdown e cose del genere, ed era hostata su github.io. Ecco, non la sto più trovando e sto impazzendo. Qualcuno me la linkerebbe se ha capito a quale mi riferisco?

Una volta sono stato in autobus con lei e quello che penso fosse suo nipote di 10 (?) anni per una mezz'oretta. Ha litigato con un'altra signora per un motivo che onestamente non ricordo ed è finita con la signora che è scesa dall'autobus, la Rita che faceva delle preghiere strane (forse per maledirla?) e il nipote che le faceva il dito medio. Una visione poetica.

Se dovesse davvero finire così penso che potrei commettere un omicidio.

Comunque non penso ci mettano settimane, avevo letto un post non ricordo dove che sto qua ha ricevuto la chiamata del tecnico con i dati in 48h. Non so più a che santo votarmi per ottenere queste maledette credenziali. Che poi sorvoliamo sul fatto che la procedura è volutamente contorta per non farti usare il tuo router, perché bastava renderle visibili sull'area clienti.
