In the previous post I have given some ideas on how we can overcome the limitation of current neural network training without using supervised datasets. I want to go into more details here to provide more ideas and insights into the evolution of neural network training: neural nets v2.0 …

I do not know about you, but one of the worst way to spend time for me is filling forms. Yet it almost looks like we humans have evolved to hurt ourselves, and this time by creating more and more forms to fill! Why? Cry!

Do you feel like your social network is not what it used to be? The messages and community you once enjoyed are not giving you the warm feeling they once did? it may be partly your fault… Selecting the right people and connection after all, is the foundation of a…

This guide is designed to help people interested in astrophotography to hit the ground running without making mistakes or reading thousands of hours of forums. When I started I could not find a single guide or website with all the information I needed. Most of the site are of too…

How to escape the limitation imposed by a dataset when dealing with real-life machine learning applications do you want your machine learning to work? If you have worked on machine learning in the recent years, you are familiar with a dataset, a large set of samples, pairs of inputs and desired outputs. The goal of this post is…

I have been excited about reproducing the human brain in hardware and software since I read an article on neuromorphic engineering in the mid 1990s. …

early days It was the winter 1998 and I have just moved to Baltimore from Italy. I joined prof. Ernst Niebur at the Mind Brain Institute, Johns Hopkins University. At the time I was fascinated by the neuroscience of vision, and was trying to learn from neuroscience book how the brain works…

In this blog post I would like to share my view on the area of semiconductors: the design of integrated circuits, the fabrication and the scalability of design to millions of units. Microchip design today should be as easy as printing a 3D object online or ordering a poster to…

How much salary is enough? I hear many people complain that some others make too much, and often it is true. Imagine someone making 100 k$/year or 250, or 500 or 1M. Do you need all that? Are we taking too much? Will others be envious? Reality is that most…
