𝜆ₛ: computable semantics for differentiable programming with higher-order functions and datatypes by Sherman, Benjamin, Michel, Jesse, Carbin, Michael

“…Deep learning is moving towards increasingly sophisticated optimization objectives that employ higher-order functions, such as integration, continuous optimization, and root-finding. Since differentiable programming frameworks such as PyTorch and TensorFlow do not have first-class representations of these functions, developers must reason about the semantics of such objectives and manually translate them to differentiable code. …”

Parameterization of nice polynomials by Anton, Hozjee

“…A univariable polynomial p(x) is said to be nice if all of its coefficients as well as all of the roots of both p(x) and its derivative p0(x) are integers. p(x) is called Q-nice polynomial if the coefficients, roots, and critical points are rational numbers. …”

We’re too busy singing: acoustic analysis with apes by French, Fiona, Good, Stephen, Mokkadem, Karim, Frost, Naomi, Finch, Katherine

“…At this early stage, technology is being used to passively monitor acoustic signals in the environment and subsequently support the analysis of recordings, using visualisation and machine learning techniques to reveal patterns and identify sound sources. Initial findings demonstrate that the fundamental frequency of gorilla low growls fall in the range of 150 to 200 Hz, with subharmonics as low as 30 Hz, just on the edge of human hearing. …”
