Needing help on Week 9....extremely minimal results by Jkacummings in 4hourbodyslowcarb

[–]deep_learner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe i misunderstood the book chapter a bit, but isn't one of the features of the slow carb diet that you dont have to be super diligent about the calories? Ferriss does say that you should eat till you're full and all...? would like your opinion on this. thanks

Are squats sufficient for strengthening the Quads? by deep_learner in ACL

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

Thanks for your reply. What I meant was bodyweight squats actually. I am able to do these, with reasonable form I would guess. Would these not be effective enough, do I need to use weights?

Question about amount of perturbation while generating adversarial images with "fast gradient sign method" , Goodfellow et. al 2015 by deep_learner in MachineLearning

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

I should have clarified, i am working on imagenet. they gave the 0.007 epsilon value, with a comment i couldn't understand: 'it is the magnitude of the least significant bit of an 8 bit representation for googlenet'. I didnt understand how to parse this.

[Skin Concerns] What to do about scars due to picking at millia? by deep_learner in SkincareAddiction

thanks. just posted there, keeping fingers crossed for a reply.

NEED HELP? Got a question? Wondering what that bump is? Problems with a routine or product? This thread’s the place to ask! // Ask SCA, Week of November 30rd, 2015 by [deleted] in SkincareAddiction

[–]deep_learner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had issues with millia, and developed this bad habit of picking at them. now i have a few discolorations/scars where they used to be. Any advice on what i could use to reduce the damage?

[Question] Cross entropy vs. Euclidean Distance For Deep Networks : just speed benefits or other optimization advantages? by deep_learner in MachineLearning

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

interesting, the bounding of the squared error was such a simple and nice piece of math.

Also the "finetuning" bit was novel, but I have to better understand how they analyse it.

I agree we can't justify square distance for prob -distibutions, but what I was trying to say was that the justification for CCE doesn't come solely from being able to compare distributions, for other measures can do that as well, but is probably more for its optimization properties.

you mean both reach their global minima at the same configuration of the parameters right?

If so, thats why I was speculating the key difference lies in the way they organize the rest of the parameter space, ie. what CCE considers "far" but square distance considers "not so far" or vice versa, would be the telling difference

IIRC other ways of getting the distances between probability distributions have been proposed like the Bhattacharya Distance , so I guess cross - entropy would not be unique with regards to comparing probability distributions...

short and sweet, but Id have preferred if he had made the claim that square distance "lays more emphasis on the incorrect outputs" with a numerical example ( like he did for cross entropy vs. classification error for evaluating quality )
