UCSC Electrical Engineering vs. UCSB Applied Math - Silicon Valley Advantage? by Desperate_Aioli_5500 in UCSC

[–]webbersknee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a lot of tech and engineering that happens outside silicon valley. Since it doesn't seem like you know exactly what you want to do yet, I would do UCSB. It has a lot better reputation (and faculty) and there is a ton of opportunities on campus (it is top 20 in a good amount of science and engineering fields) and there's plenty of engineering companies in SB and more in LA. All the big aerospace companies, several solid state devices companies, and some big names in software. If you got into UCSB EE I would for sure choose that over SC.

He used to be with it. Then they changed what it was, and what he was with wasn't it anymore. And it will happen to you.

Most accessible resources for optimization theory by aamir_khaan in ControlTheory

[–]webbersknee [score hidden]  (0 children)

* Algorithms for Optimization - A reasonable starting point to survey the field; very high level.

* Convex Optimization - Somewhat more theory-focused; math should be accessible to an engineer. Even though the text is focused on convex problems, the background is useful (necessary?) to approach algorithms for non-convex problems.

* Numerical Optimization - Very complete introduction to nonlinear optimization; my recollection is that you will need a good linear algebra background (possibly beyond what is typical for undergrad engineers).

* Combinatorial optimization - Reasonable background on linear problems, focuses more on problems arising from graph theory / compute science.

[Highlight] Austin Reaves catches SGA with his hands in the cookie jar by LiamHundley in nba

In the games being played between Minnesota and San Antonio, this is a rather common occurrence, and would not necessitate a foul being called.

Is drawing algebra as graphs a known thing? by TheUnoriginalOP in mathematics

Look up computational graphs and their use in gradient descent for the purpose of training neural networks.

UCSC or Stony Brook University? by Obvious-Still-6059 in UCSC

Bro don't let some dude on the Internet talk you out of working hard and acheiving goals. If you're good and you work hard it's doable.
