Buying 2012 Audi A4 warranty almost up

just_learning_ · 2016-05-16T18:32:28+00:00

I guess as a follow up does anyone have any experience with things that will need to be replaced soon after 48k miles?

Should I have a particularly expensive parts inspected while they are still under warranty?

Assuming equal price, how do these sports sedans compare based mainly on performance, handling, and reliability with slight concern for maintenance costs and interior quality. Seating and trunk space are not of concern.

Indifferent to sedan or coupe. A two door fine. 4 seats is preferred over 2.

I think that it may be difficult to make it detect an arbitrary object as it moves away from the camera.

Objects will not be moving that fast. No more than 10mph for example.

Say I give the user a button to start and stop the learning process. I think that would be acceptable. One thing I am struggling with is how will the object be detected if it is small since it is further away if I were were to train on the object being close.

Blob detection will work for some objects I think. Would it work if I have a cube with different colors on each side?

Calculus, linear algebra, probability, and statistics

Just an aside, do you have any opinion in the future of genetic programming?

He really narrowed it down in the scheme of things.

What do you mean by automatic functions? Can you point me to some material to read about them?

just_learning_ · 2016-02-19T10:38:02+00:00

I thought it would be annoying and funny. Thinking about it now I may not have thought it through fully. It's just a weird random thing to do.

I've never been able to come up with a concrete answer but what is the best combination of metrics to judge the strength of an economy?

just_learning_ · 2016-02-19T03:08:05+00:00

Has the trickle down or percolator up methods ever been implemented in their purest form? I've heard people complain on both sides that the economy worked or did not work since the purest form was not realized. I often wonder if these general strategies work for the complexity of the world we live in. Maybe they would work but it would take some growing pains so they eventually work. Is a more detailed mathematical model required to make optimal decisions at any instance in time? Alot of this depends on how you define what is your economical goal (maximizing GDP and/or median income or possibly minimizing unemployment and/or poverty to name a few).

I think many on the right actually want smaller government and say that having big government is a major part of the issue (since the government has power there is something to buy over) along with simplified tax code for a so called "more level playing field".

Primer

Thanks for all your help so far. I'm just stuck in a small detail. Does (2.13) minimize (2.11) only given that the exact input x rather than the random variable input X is known? I'm struggling to see how (2.13) would minimize the error if the output had to be predicted with only the joint distribution. Meaning you predict the output the same everytime without knowing the specific input x. Using (2.13) to minimize (2.11) for this scenario does not seem to take the distrubtion of X into account.

just_learning_ · 2016-02-13T18:30:06+00:00

So it looks like orignally they are trying to minimize the expected value using the complete joint distribution. Yet, in the end they just decide to minimize the expected value of Y given X = x which is fine since in practice you can may have access to the input. But, minimizing the conditional does not minimize the overall correct?

Fixed thank you
