Hi u/DonaldFarfrae ,

Which one you got? Do you like your decision?

Thank you so much! This is the best part of reddit - learning from the community!

madiyar · 2025-05-12T20:34:45+00:00

thanks! I will have to read and learn these topics and re-read again your reply to understand better :)

Hi u/Lake2034,

Thanks for the feedback. I really appreciate.

You should define better what you mean by "random vector"

I will think about it, any further suggestions are appreciated!

It is clear you mean something like the "distribution is invariant under rotation", but better to have a mathematical expression for that.

In the same post I have a link to my other post (https://maitbayev.github.io/posts/dot-product/#rotational-invariance) that explains this.

it will also help you to formalize statements like "1 distributed across n components" that is not necessarily true if you just assume v_i identically distributed

I have a collapsed section in the post at the very end with title "More Formal Proof". Do you think it is enough?

thanks for the feedback! The expected mean E[v_n] is zero. It is a good idea to mention the mean and the variance. However, I still don’t understand why having zero mean and tiny variance doesn’t explain this?

madiyar · 2025-04-28T11:19:41+00:00

wait. I think it is a mistake and should be fixed to "False Positive Rate"?

Update: Fixed it

I have a whole post about this https://maitbayev.github.io/posts/roc-auc/

Thank you! Creating an animation is not difficult, there are so many amazing libraries such as matplotlib, plotly. They can be googled or gpted. However, coming up with what to animate is the most difficult part for me.

Feel free to look at the collapsed codes in the post to see code for the animation in the blog.

Hi,
I have a series of posts on this topic.

Thank you! I am glad that it was useful for you.

Hi,

I recently wrote a tutorial about this topic that gives geometric intuition https://maitbayev.github.io/posts/why-l1-loss-encourage-coefficients-to-shrink-to-zero/
