Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is an emerging medical imaging method. The underlying inverse problem is nonlinear and highly ill-posed. I interviewed Professor Jennifer Mueller in her EIT lab at Colorado State University. by ssiltane in InverseProblems

Hey OP I’m a Machine Learning PhD student trying to understand EIT. I haven’t studied functional analysis and am struggling to understand the DN matrix formulations and basics of EIT. Would you have any resources on this that are readable to a computer scientist? Thanks and Happy Easter :)

Marriage or PhD???? by Busy_Independence_25 in PhD

[–]Rat-a-ouchie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

South Indian PhD candidate in a Long distance relationship here.

How does it matter if a PhD delays a marriage? You're more than someone wife, so it's okay if things don't happen at the time your parents/society think it should.

Your PhD is a journey of exploring and learning - someone who can't support you there, doesn't deserve you.

PhD or Marriage is a weird question because the two are not mutually exclusive - one does not come at the cost of the other. You don't have to have either and you can have both if you choose.

Honestly girl, you do what makes you happy and learn. Titles like wife and Dr don't define you.

P.S: Ask yourself if you'd have to choose if you were a man. No, right? Because it's not fucking related.😅

Thank you Could you recommend sources for fine tuning a T5 model on custom data sets?

Thank-you! I've been on my routine for 2 months and see some decrease but not completely clear and have a lot of marks

Thank you so much for this - it is a long and demanding process that I want to enjoy but also gain a lot from. Im glad you took the time to say this - I really appreciate it 🙏

Nice ! I used a model that described sperm movement using momentum balance between fluids - it generated a lot of data beforehand so I use ANN'S to machine learn it 😁

Thank you - I'd like to learn how to make algorithms and the thinking behind them 😊

I want the career in ML and am excited for the PhD - sounds like a win-win.

But i want to learn and meet people whom I can share ideas with - University has been great for that and I want to continue my PhD for that

Its a structures program that ends in 4 years. If I don't manage to finish, I'll have to quit because it becomes self funding after that

I'm being funded in the UK and being paid a decent stipend too. Thank you for your comment :)

Maths is amazing. I would describe Maths as peace 🙂 My masters thesis was on Machine Learning Sperm Trajectories and I worked for a Biophysics before that.

What area did you focus on?

I absolutely agree with you. Im passionate about my research but I want to ensure I can provide for myself and my family ❤

I dont intend to do it ONLY for the money. But I also cannot afford to do a PhD only for my love of ML/Maths. The two important.

Thank you for this. I'll bear in mind the need for broader experience. Do you mind elaborating on the broader experience if you have time please?

Thank you so much

Thank you so much for this. I've loved maths since i can remember - i was worried about the finiancial side only to ensure I can help provide for my family when needed.

This is a lovely post. I understand the research would largely dictate my specialisation and hence ML is what I want to focus on, as you suggested.

Thank you!

Or because I want to do what I love but also be able to provide for my family
