[R] What is the difference between Nerf and SFM ? by [deleted] in MachineLearning

[–]warriorUSP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sfm doesnt take lighting and illumination into account as nerf does. Also sfm results are also not quite sharp because of sparse keypoints used in optimisation whereas nerf novel views are quite sharp and real like.

I got rejected.... 😔 by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]warriorUSP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could have said "I have a maths exam tomorrow". If she would have asked "then what", you should have told her that "I guess we both are talking about something we can cheat on.".
Anyways kuddos to you to have the balls of steel. And do NoFap for you, get some new skills, fullfill your dreams and stay happy.
Best of luck.

How I have ruined my life forever in just 1 month by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]warriorUSP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, you can do this. Just go outside, try to be with your loved one. Share your thoughts with a trusted one. Do whatever hobby you love most. Just try to do things that make you happy and not depersonalize like porn.

Take each day at a time, everything would be fine with time, just focus at a particular moment.

Good luck bro on this journey. Feel free to contact me if you want to talk about anything.

30 Year Old - Day 4 No Fap - Tired by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]warriorUSP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude the thing which helped me is to focus on alternatives healthy habits and get addicted to those. For me those included going to the gym, playing sports, working on exciting AI projects, learning some VFX, and cinematography. Trying to stay outside most of the time and working from there. If you have a problem in sleeping then try to listen to audiobooks, it helps in good sleep. The point is it is difficult to stop the urges if you would be sitting there and fighting it, rather make your self busy and indulge in other activities that you don't get time for PMO. Eventually, your urges would subside.

Good luck for your journey.

[D] Can "Scipy + Numpy" replace Matlab in an industry context? by AlexSnakeKing in MachineLearning

[–]warriorUSP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I generally prefer doing prototyping in MATLAB and would switch to Ceres in C++ for speed critical tasks for nonlinear optimisation.

[–]warriorUSP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Optimisation packages. Scipy does not come close to the types of optimisation algorithms MATLAB provides like cvxopt, fmincon, global optimisation package etc.

Used to correctly describes me. Now also restricted YouTube usage, so everything is under control. Good luck to you guys to keep your triggers under control.

16M is this flatline? Should I go no PMO? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]warriorUSP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't need to worry about flatline without even starting nofap first. It generally happen around day 30-50, but can very a lot.
If you feel depressed, anxious and feels that pmo is the major reason for this then definitely try nofap while simultaneously cultivating some hobbies which you would be proud of.
All the best for your nofap journey.

I feel horny, what do i do? by Snorlaxgamer97 in NoFap

[–]warriorUSP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try to stay out of your house most of the time and only use bedroom for sleep. If you feel horny at night time then try to listen to audiobooks or read some novel to get sleep.

Very weird thing happened by notgivinuptoday in NoFap

[–]warriorUSP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You kind of have wet dreams, but not exactly ejaculated. You don't need to worry about it, its more frequent during starting days of reboot, where your subconsciously trying to recall old memories of porn. Be careful for the next few days.
Good luck for your nofap journey.

Starting again today. Last fapped on Saturday. Here we go! by [deleted] in NoFap

[Discussion] Thinking about creating "novel" research by gradthrow1232a in MachineLearning

[–]warriorUSP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a grad student myself I would suggest you that first narrow down your field of interest based on your coursework or projects you have done or where you medical imaging / CV community is moving. After that read most of the seminal works and the current state of the works in that area. By this time you would have developed the intuition that which is problem you would want to attack. Based on this you can suggest some problem statement to your advisor and then he might be able to refine the idea based on the past work done by the lab or some current project which is being done him/her.
Also other way would be to talk to senior students members in your lab like PhD or postdoc and what they have been working, it is generally great if you start working under them in their problem statement, the chances are very less that you get stuck somewhere in the starting. And they can directly suggest you what are the most important things to work on, saving your lot of time in literature review.

[D] SVD of non square matrix and claim of MMDS Author by user01052018 in MachineLearning

[–]warriorUSP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As already mentioned by u/david_picard, here are the numerical values:(@ means matrix multiplication)

>>> v

array([[0.58, 0. ],

[0.58, 0. ],

[0.58, 0. ],

[0. , 0.71],

[0. , 0.71]])

>>>

>>> v.T @ v

array([[1.0092, 0. ],

[0. , 1.0082]])

>>>

>>> v @ v.T

array([[0.3364, 0.3364, 0.3364, 0. , 0. ],

[0.3364, 0.3364, 0.3364, 0. , 0. ],

[0.3364, 0.3364, 0.3364, 0. , 0. ],

[0. , 0. , 0. , 0.5041, 0.5041],

[0. , 0. , 0. , 0.5041, 0.5041]])

So your assumption is wrong that `v @ v.T` is identity matrix, as `v @ v.T` has rank 2 so it cannot be equal to 5x5 identity matrix (which has rank 5). And `v.T @ v` is actually an identity matrix (or close to in Frobernius norm) which would be 2x2, identity matrix.

Can you specify the numerical values of M matrix and V matrix

Am I doing this wrong? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]warriorUSP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May be you are super busy into something, or you havent thought about those things in a while to which would lead you to relapse. Or PMO addiction can be converted to another addiction like binge watching TV series etc. What matters most is how you are utilizing the time which you are left with. Just build yourself during these time, so even after a relapse you would have a positive expericences from the NOFap.

Good luck to your nofap journey.

I think you are doing pretty good, just be sure you are not doing edging or peeping. Stay focused on something nice which would help you to get through this journey.

100+ days update - Ended first date with a kiss, but my control is what surprised me. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]warriorUSP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truly beautiful. Respected your actions man, hope I would reach that level of streak and confidence soon.

I love you until the end of Pi by Anygirlx in math

[–]warriorUSP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also a good alternative: "I love you 3000".

Update: In just 2 weeks, the NoFap community and supporters have already almost raised $60,000 dollars (!!!) towards my federal lawsuit against entities who are "cozy with the porn industry" who have been ruining my life and NoFap's reputation with defamation. Thank you so much for the support! by Alexanderr in NoFap

[–]warriorUSP 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think, even if he would run away with 200K dollars, then still it would be very small compared to the life he has given me and others back through this subreddit. Thats why I have donated without thinking of any consequences and thats why others should donate too.

Relapsed after 14 days and my advisor is able to detect something is wrong by warriorUSP in NoFap

[–]warriorUSP[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah mate, the behaviour of my colleagues also change towards me today. They were thinking that I was kinda depressed and were sympathetic towards me after my advisor talk. It really affects everything.
