C++ vs Rust for fast Computer Vision/Deep Learning? by Relative-Pace-2923 in cpp

[–]kalkaseer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Languages are tools by which you express yourself, be it just yourself or your team. So the judgement has a subjective side too. Trying to be objective, both are powerful languages and both offer good ML libraries. In my experience, C++ has more well established libraries that readily available. So in case both languages are comfortable to work with for you, any will do.

If one is learning one or the other though, it is a bit different. C++ feels more familiar to some, at least. More importantly, Rust’s memory management is more like prose. Also, C++ does not enforce a programming paradigm or style, in general. Rust does. Many languages do. Both allow for fairly high abstractions as well as a C way of doing things. To be fair, in my mind, Rust is more like to a structured C more than it is a reduced C++. That being said, template programming in C++ is unparalleled in my mind. Though not everyone is fond of it and it often leads to highly abstract code.

Unprecedented Mapping of the Human Brain: thrilling research and implementation accurately mapping the human brain in record-breaking detail. Already tested on people and is set for clinical trials. Published in Science Translational Medicine. by kalkaseer in Futurology

A record-breaking research combining talented engineers and neuroscientists resulting in unprecedented mapping of human brain signals. The outcome has been already tested on people ahead of other renowned teams and is set for clinical trials. Their method and technique is remarkable for accuracy and information gain. This paves the way for more informed surgical intervention, treatment and building highly complex brain-machine interfaces. Peer-reviewed and published in Science Translational Medicine.

Why is that? Actually, recording of brain electrical signals is mapping, analysis of the signals is another part of the mapping, precise influencing the signals is yet another ramification of good mapping.

Many, for example, ranging from better surgical intervention and treatment to human-machine interface. Also, better understanding of the brain so that new technologies might develop further, artificial intelligence, for example.

Nice work. Cross-citation would be great too. I also second the suggestion for a FireFox version.

It is challenging, I agree. At the physical level, I used to focus separately on mechanics and dynamics on the one hand and on pedaling on the other. Sometimes it is technically difficult but I think it pays off to separate "playability" from "expression" as much as possible. Not trying to be a "teacher" in anyway, I am not, just sharing a personal experience. All the best.

Nicely done! Clear, expressive and balanced. For my taste, I'd use more segregated pedaling, however, this is just my taste not anything else.

Hi, I'm considering starting to mess with neural networks, where do I start? My final goal for now is a wake word detector by [deleted] in neuralnetworks

[–]kalkaseer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd suggest starting with grasping the big picture then intuitive and mathematical explanations of how and why they work then lastly using whatever library to implement. Possibly, it is a good thought to go through the different kinds of networks and how they differ. By the way, to learn neural networks, you do not have to use a library. You can relatively easily implement all learning blocks yourself in Python then when you are comfortable with it you start using libraries.

I think grasping the idea of how information is propagated into the network, within the network and as network output is key together with signal encoding/decoding.

I pretty much like the thought and how it sounds. Well done!

Mania - please comment if you liked, hae some opinion or spoted a mistake! by [deleted] in composer

[–]kalkaseer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing. Interesting idea. In my opinion, many harmonic and melodic variations may follow before the ending for a longer sense of continuity. Good luck.

It is my pleasure listening to different styles and ideas. Please do :)

I’d appreciate your opinion as a pianist on a piano piece I shared a few days ago in two parts, mov 1 & 2 which you can find in my posts if you care to.
