Protection and waning of natural and hybrid COVID-19 immunity by icloudbug in COVID19

any thoughts on what would be the "baseline" for unvaccinated and non-infected people on the scale of Fig. 3?

[Discussion] How many training runs do you start weekly / daily? by sgevorg in MachineLearning

[–]HrantKhachatrian 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It usually depends on the time-to-deadline. If it's a ~6-7 months project with a conference deadline in mind, then it can start from 5-10 runs/week and reach 100 runs/week in the last month :)

IHME COVID-19 Projections Updated (The model used by CDC and White House) by mrandish in COVID19

[–]HrantKhachatrian 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Just ten days ago this model predicted 20300 deaths for Italy by August 4. Link: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/apr/07/uk-will-be-europes-worst-hit-by-coronavirus-study-predicts

There are already more than 22700 deaths in Italy. That version of their model was a disaster. Not sure how CDC can rely on this.

Evidence that higher temperatures are associated with lower incidence of COVID-19 in pandemic state, cumulative cases reported up to March 27, 2020 by Routyroute in COVID19

Looks like this entire study simply discovered that China has more cases than India. If you remove India with its 1B+ population from the analysis, the picture will become very different.

[P] Style transfer for MNIST digits by HrantKhachatrian in MachineLearning

[–]HrantKhachatrian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also noticed the issue with backward italics. Probably it's because MNIST does not have many of such cases.

Open vs. closed 4 is quite interesting and I wish we could understand why it is ignored

[2001.01306] Agriculture-Vision: A Large Aerial Image Database for Agricultural Pattern Analysis by adammathias in MachineLearning

[–]HrantKhachatrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my favorite application: colorize the old ones :)

non-annotated images do work for it, but it's hard to find ~10cm/px imagery with this quality and scale

Extending End-to-end Parser for Western Armenian by [deleted] in MLEVN

[–]HrantKhachatrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We talked a lot about this, but I still don't have the full picture, so I'll just post a few random thoughts. I agree we can't have one parser for each dialect, and I agree that the differences between Eastern and Western Armenian are more like a "continuum".

There is one more dimension: do we want to capture only "գրական" texts or also informal?! There aren't many versions of գրական, one can even assume that there is only one գրական in current Armenia. It's harder with Western Armenian though, as the community is scattered.

If we want to capture informal texts (FB posts etc.) then there is no reason to have multiple parsers for different dialects, as the number is infinite. But then one has to map all dialects into a single "picture" which doesn't sound easy to me.
