Samsung has released Bixby, a next generation conversational “virtual assistant” platform. You can download the Bixby Developer studio now, but before doing something with it, you have to understand some basics of Bixby. I hope this post can help you to understand those basics. At client side, imagine Bixby as a personal virtual assistant app…
I am going run my 3rd lecture on deep learning (DL). Here I would like to explain my thoughts on how I designed/revised all 12 weeks lectures from ground up. It is NOT really hard to follow as it works well for me, but I have no guarantees it works well for others!. Here is…
I am writing down my thoughts on how to educate my kids at home. I lost belief on school education since long time and it is getting worst this time. For me, school is the biggest threat for their education, it is a killing machine for their curiosity. This is not my final method, just…
[Thinking] Anyone who does research required to think hard. To solve problem. Thinking usually happen to everyone, however being a better thinker and keeping our mind sharp, creatively and critically, is not an easy task. The thinking process requires mental effort in which physically, our nervous system will consume more glucose to execute. The effortful mental activity appears to be especially…
One thing that I do enjoy in my job is teaching. No, I don’t believe I can really do my job without teaching ! My personal reason is simple, when I do teach, I contribute to next generation scientists and engineers in good way. It is not just about delivering engineering contents like machine learning, C++ or algorithm,…
[Writing] Basically we can put like this – reading affects writing and writing affects reading. Good writers are also good readers. Activities while reading and writing share many of the same working brain’s memory region, and potentially draw upon the same as well as unique cognitive systems. Neuroscientists perhaps have more evidences or maybe can…
I found myself signed PhD (Permanent head Damage) program for deep learning topic. It was a conscious decision to put myself into new rhythm, to explore current trends in AI technology, do research and perhaps contribute little things to the body of knowledge. Not a bias decision, as I wanted to get “in rhythm of…
I remembered my first interview to apply web developer job back in 2000 during Indonesia first Web bubble. I didn’t know about SQL Database and HTML, even had never heard about IDE to write code before. As theoretical physic graduate, I knew Matlab, Fortran and C compilers, but never in touch with latest trend. I…
Usually it takes sometime for me to answer such question or I just give my best two cents smile because the context is not well defined. We hear a lot of myth of being good software engineers and mostly more familiar with the other side of the equation – the bad habits of software engineers,…
What we are referring here is this most famous equation: When a particle has zero mass, its energy must be zero because E = 0 * c^2 = 0. So you are already concluding it right. A photon (light particle) that has its mass zero, could not have energy. As many has mentioned, E = mc^2 is…
