    Yes, I agree, slime belongs to soft matter.

Detexify LaTeX handwritten symbol recognition - 2 views

  •  
    For hardcore latex users (btw ... implemented in haskell ... classical machine learning app, but useful)
  •  
    Also available as Android app (not sure if called "texify" or "detexify".
  •  
    works actually quite well!!

    Data-Visualization Firm's New Software Autonomously Finds Abstract Connections --> Annalisa?
  •  
    I had a nice introduction about Ordinal Regression via Manifold Learning by Francisco last week. It is doubtless a very actual research branch!
  •  
    I doubt :) The original paper from Liu is from 2011 and has .... wait for it .... 1 quotation (and a self-one)!!! http://scholar.google.it/scholar?hl=it&q=Ordinal+Regression+via+Manifold+Learning&btnG=&lr=

Kaggle: making data science a sport - 2 views

  •  
    Old post from Luis brought back from graveyard..... At least two good ideas to put there: 1) tipping points prediction 2) planetary phases for trajectory transfer and probably many more if we think about it a bit more

Astro Drone featured on robohub! - 4 views

LeopoldS and Joris _ liked it
  •  
    "Robohub is an online platform that brings together leading communicators in robotics research, start-ups, business, and education from around the world." What is nice about robohub is that they generally give a look behind the scenes of interesting robotic studies.
  •  
    This is currently a very trendy subject in navigation, indeed. In your case, how exactly do you resolve the ambiguity? why only one 2D marker? what would be the conclusion exactly?
  •  
    "leading communicators", love it!

Quadrocopter Pole Acrobatics - YouTube - 2 views

  •  
    very impressive!
  •  
    Very cool - I like also like the little tumble that the copter does after it launches the pole. It look like it is happy of what it just did :-D

Google X Acquires Makani Power And Its Airborne Wind Turbines - 1 views

  •  
    After previously investing in the company, Google has now acquired Makani Power, a green energy startup that is currently building airborne wind turbines. The acquisition was first reported in Brad Stone's Businessweek story about Google X, and judging from Stone's story, the team will join Google X.

    Nice. Though would have liked a better example ..

    this is a parody on the Norvig-Chomsky debate that has been going on for the last year or so. You can read more about it here: http://norvig.com/chomsky.html

Convolutional networks start to rule the world! - 2 views

  •  
    Recently, many competitions in the computer vision domain have been won by huge convolutional networks. In the image net competition, the convolutional network approach halves the error from ~30% to ~15%! Key changes that make this happen: weight-sharing to reduce the search space, and training with a massive GPU approach. (See also the work at IDSIA: http://www.idsia.ch/~juergen/vision.html) This should please Francisco :)

    where is Francisco when one needs him ...
  •  
    ...mmmmm... they use 60 million parameters and 650,000 neurons on a task that one can somehow consider easier than (say) predicting a financial crisis ... still they get 15% of errors .... reminds me of a comic we saw once ... cat http://www.sarjis.info/stripit/abstruse-goose/496/the_singularity_is_way_over_there.png

    I think the ultimate solution is still to put a human brain in a jar and use it for pattern recognition. Maybe we should get a stagiaire for this..?

    Winter is coming... and deep learning, too!

    "Sergey Brin has said he wants to build a benign version of HAL in 2001: A Space Odyssey" ... didn't they try to do that in that movie called "2001: A Space Odyssey" ?

Robotic insects make first controlled flight - 3 views

  •  
    The Robobee takes off without guide wires! It is still powered via a wire, and the control is done with the help of a VICON system and on an external computer, but this still is an amazing feat!
  •  
    The way they make this thing is just as impressive. The manufacturing technique is "pop-up book" folding, a method that has been developed by the same group and that allows a two dimensional monolithic MEMS structures to be easily assembled into a 3D structure. I actually put this as an item of the "Technology List 2020" on the wiki this morning.
  •  
    I agree, manufacturing is the amazing thing here ..... as soon as the power-consumption/density problem is solved these things will really take off :)
