An annotated example of a simple #symbolic #neuralnetwork written in #commonlisp, with a bunch of comments to help understand data flow.

Thanks @screwlisp for the implementation!

My #lisp #symbolic #deepLearning #ffnn #condition streamlined.

screwlisp.small-web.org/condit

The pretty and overtly useable rewrite of my earlier brace of articles.

An important condition handling style mistake I cleaned up was that I had previously put HANDLER-BIND /inside/ my INFER. But this freezes it in place; I might as well have used functions as such. Now the algorithm graph is essentially the condition handlers and restarts outside the function at runtime.

On the #climate I would like to talk about the company that found #curl and #openssl's #deeplearning many (10ish) 0-day vulns "using #ai ". (#llm s were involved).

This obviously relates to my #lisp #symbolic #DL screwlisp.small-web.org/condit (ffnn equiv). Thanks to everyone involved with that so far.

I implemented that using #commonLisp #condition handling viz KMP.

#Symbolic #deepLearning #inferencing with #commonLisp #conditions

The #DL from before, but it works via a mixture of condition handlers and restarts.

This turned out to be condition example boilerplate, but it was interesting to me personally, at least!

Not sure about this construction I used (paraphrasing):

(prog ((c nil))
start
(restart-case
(if c
(signal c))
(resignal (condition) (setq c condition) (go start))))

Okay I guess on the hour it's the Sunday-morning-in-Europe #lispyGopherClimate .

a. I will lightly go over my recent #commonLisp #symbolic #DL ( #ai!) algo / article.

b. Excitingly that gave me occasion to use

which I used to pass data-like parameters along without cluttering up arguements (waters' functions of seven arguments). People had tried to explain it to me previously but now I underst

A better and #symbolic #deeplearning #algorithm in #commonLisp .

I hope I come across as slightly tongue-in-cheek! Though all my points and notes are in fact genuine.

tl;dr I define completely explainable and interpretable deep learning / inferencing in terms of operations on sets of symbols.

I think it successfully underscores the wild misapprehensions about deep learning that abound in the wild. What do you think?

Friends of GNOME didn't sleep over the holidays, so I have a gap to catch. Still nowhere near the old fixed weight devkit coverage.
