Today's random #Discogs choice Protodroids - Clouds Of Venus / Correlations - Zodiac Rising CIS sub library 2022. Two different electronic albums in one. Protodroids offer up a groovy dance style and Correlations a smoother, more introspective listen. Both quite wonderful.

Google Search Rankings Correlate HIGHLY with Websites that publish content, use domain names in their URLs, use internal links to connect pages together, and that appear in results on other search engines.

Correlation studies do NOT reveal how Google's algorithms work. Correlation studies do not identify cause-and-effect, they do not point to or imply cause-and-effect, and they do not explain why anything is happening in Google's search results.

"A major function [of deductive #logic is in] assessing exactly what is involved in asserting some set of propositions. […] By omitting some premiss without which the deduction of some conclusion is not valid, it misrepresents the premiss from which this conclusion is obtained, and hence responsibility for the conclusion. To agree to accept partial responsibility as good enough here is like agreeing to say that somebody was responsible for the dinner when he peeled potatoes and the cook did the rest. The first statement cannot be accepted as an elliptical, but allowable, way of making the second statement. And similarly suppression [of some premiss] enables us to obtain as causally responsible a partially sufficient rather than a fully sufficient causal condition."

“A new computer model uses a better artificial intelligence process to measure snow and water availability more accurately across vast distances in the West, information that could someday be used to better predict water availability for farmers and others. The researchers [link above] predict water availability from areas in the West where snow amounts aren't being physically measured…”

I used to be annoyed by the absurdly low p-values that can be obtained when doing #correlations with thousands of data points. Permutation analysis could help to see if the observed relationships might be a random occurence.

Searching now for tools that automate the process, while also explaining clearly what is being done.

Weak supervision - Strong results! 💪

Smith and team introduce Perturbational Metric Learning (PeML) to extract biological relationships from noisy high-throughput perturbational datasets.

Team effort from preLighters Benjamin Dominik Maier & Anna Foix Romero – read their preLight! 👀

🔥 In this tutorial, we'll show you to install Giskard #Python #library. In just 4 lines of code, you will discover vulnerabilities, such as:
✅ #Performance biases.
✅ #Data leakage.
✅ Spurious #correlations.
✅ #Overconfidence issues.
✅ #Underconfidence issues.

[2/4]

🎉 The replay of our webinar 'Detect vulnerabilities in your AI models' is now available! 🎥🍿

Detect #biases, #data leakage, spurious #correlations, and confidence issues, using our #Python #library and x2 your #ML #workflow.

Happy learning! 🚀🔬

Giskard 1.4 is out! What's new in this version? ⭐

🔪 With Giskard’s new Slice feature, we introduce the possibility to identify business areas in which your #AI models underperform. This will make it easier to debug performance #biases or identify spurious #correlations. We have also added an export/import feature to share your projects, as well as other minor improvements.

I was reading an #article whose authors made and validated an index for professional prestige! They provided the OP scores for the fields and then listed the 15 top #occupations with highest and lowest mean prestige scores (table).
Below is the gist of the #correlations

• #interpersonal is not strongly correlated with the prestige (no relationship).
• Critical thinking is strongly related with the prestige.
• Physical is slightly negatively correlated with the prestige.

Not fair at all 🥸

PhD opportunity in my group of Statistical #Physics of #Complex #Systems at Coventry University.

Interested in #graphs, #networks and #algorithms? Join us to study a new #ensemble of complex networks focusing on #correlations, and determine its relations to the degree-sequence and degree-distribution ensembles, to discover mesoscopic drivers in the #evolution of complex systems.

Please boost widely and feel free to send to possible interested candidates.

Quan people: I just found a fun #game about #correlations on https://guessthecorrelation.com/ designed by a PhD student.

Finished chapter one. I like that this text has so many linked resources, but some of the links to the sister texts make me think I’d be getting a deeper and more technical understanding by reading them instead of this more introductory text. Still, this has some tremendous value even as a refresher.

Government bodies also tend to be more limited in their capacity to expand if successful, and are usually protected from failure if they perform poorly. ❧

They can expand in different ways however. Think about the expansion of empires of Egypt, Rome, and the Mongols in the 12th Century. What caused them to cease growing and decrease? What allowed them to keep increasing? Annotated on February 10, 2020 at 04:50PM

Capitalism is an economic system that can combine centralization with decentralization. ❧

How can we analogize this with the decentralization of the web and its economy? Annotated on February 10, 2020 at 04:50PM

Market competition provides a mechanism for weeding out those who underperform. ❧

Note how this has failed in the current guilded age of the United States where it is possible for things to be “too big to fail”. Annotated on February 10, 2020 at 04:50PM

First, because capital goods do not fall from the sky: all countries that have successfully moved from poverty to affluence have done so, of necessity, by accumulating large amounts of capital. We will also see that a crucial feature of capitalism is who owns and controls the capital goods in an economy. ❧

Annotated on February 10, 2020 at 03:11PM

Yet some things that we value are not private property—for example, the air we breathe and most of the knowledge we use cannot be owned, bought, or sold. ❧

Annotated on February 10, 2020 at 04:49PM

We should be sceptical when anyone claims that something complex (capitalism) ‘causes’ something else (increased living standards, technological improvement, a networked world, or environmental challenges), just because we can see there is a correlation. ❧

Great and ridiculous examples of this can be found at https://www.tylervigen.com/spurious-correlations Annotated on February 10, 2020 at 08:59PM

Figure 1.16 ❧

Note the dramatic inconsistency of the scale on the left hand side. What is going on here? Annotated on February 10, 2020 at 09:23PM

Firms should not be owned and managed by people who survive because of their connections to government or their privileged birth: Capitalism is dynamic when owners or managers succeed because they are good at delivering high-quality goods and services at a competitive price. This is more likely to be a failure when the other two factors above are not working well. ❧

Here is where we’re likely to fail in the United States by following the example of Donald Trump, who ostensibly has survived solely off the wealth of his father’s dwindling empire. With that empire gone, he’s now turning to creating wealth by associating with the government. We should carefully follow where this potentially leads the country. Annotated on February 10, 2020 at 09:31PM

In some, their spending on goods and services as well as on transfers like unemployment benefits and pensions, accounts for more than half of GDP. ❧

What is the Government’s proportion of the US GDP presently? Annotated on February 10, 2020 at 09:34PM

James Bronterre O’Brien, told the people:‘Knaves will tell you that it is because you have no property, you are unrepresented. I tell you on the contrary, it is because you are unrepresented that you have no property …’ ❧
