We often hear that Machine Learning models learn patterns in data. But what does that look like in geometry? Picture dropping an elastic mesh into a cloud of points and letting it adapt. How would it bend, stretch, and settle so it matches the shape hiding in the data? In this scene we watch a self-organizing map(SOM)...a classic unsupervised neural model...learn a 2D dataset arranged like a spiral arm. Over the points we place a square grid of neurons whose weights live in the same plane. At the start it’s just a flat net drifting across the cloud. No clue what the structure is. Fir the SOM, learning is a repeated game: Pick a random data point, find the neuron whose weight is closest, then nudge that neuron and its neighbours toward the point. Repeat, repeat, repeat...while gradually shrinking how wide the neighbourhood influence spreads. The result is satisfying...the grid stops being a grid and turns into a coordinate sheet wrapped onto the spiral. #MachineLearning #ManifoldLearning #UnsupervisedLearning #NeuralMaps #GeometricML #SelfOrganizingMap #Topology

A neural network can begin as a flat sheet and learn the shape of hidden data A self-organizing map turns learning into geometry. Each data point pulls one winning neuron toward it, but nearby neurons move too, and so the whole lattice bends without losing its neighborhood structure. The strange part is that the network is not given the roll shape. It discovers the shape through competition and local cooperation.

A Neural Sheet Discovers the Shape of Data A self-organizing map (SOM) starts as a flat sheet of neurons with no knowledge of the data around it. For every input sample, it finds the best-matching neuron, c = argminᵢ ‖x - wᵢ‖, and updates that neuron together with its neighbours, wᵢ ← wᵢ + η(t)hᶜᵢ(t)(x - wᵢ). As the neighbourhood radius shrinks during training, the sheet gradually bends and folds onto the hidden geometry of the dataset while preserving its neighbourhood structure. Developed by Finnish computer scientist Teuvo Kohonen, the Self-Organizing Map remains one of the most elegant examples of competitive learning, where order emerges from thousands of simple local updates. #MachineLearning #ArtificialIntelligence #SelfOrganizingMap #NeuralNetworks #DataVisualization #Mathematics #ComputerScience #Finland #TeuvoKohonen

The Machine That Learns The Law Behind The Data A very very interesting US Patent US10963540B2 - Physics Informed Learning Machine describes a learning system that does not begin with data alone. It begins with a physical model, usually written as a differential equation (or PDE) dx/dt = f(x,t) A normal Machine Learning model sees scattered data and tries to fit it. A physics-informed learning machine starts with a law. Then it treats the data as evidence that updates what the model believes about the physical system. For this application, I use the patent idea on NASA C-MAPSS Turbofan engine data. The machine watches multivariate telemetry from a degrading engine and infers a hidden health state that is not measured directly. From that posterior belief, it estimates the engine’s remaining useful life. In the main 3D scene, the engine lifetime is turned into a tunnel. The spiral ribbons are real sensor channels evolving over cycle-time. The glowing core is the inferred health state. The surrounding cloud is uncertainty. The orange wall ahead is the predicted failure horizon. So the big picture is: sensor evidence comes in, posterior belief tightens, and the machine moves from uncertainty toward a concrete failure prediction. The inset posteriors make that explicit. The health posterior shows where the model believes the hidden engine condition sits at the current moment, and how sharply it believes it. The RUL posterior shows the same idea for remaining life... early on it is broad, later it shifts left and narrows as the machine becomes more certain about how close failure is. This idea is not limited to engines. The same idea can apply to data centers, CPUs, GPUs, cooling systems, power grids, robotics, batteries, and any machine that produces telemetry while obeying physical constraints. In an age where machine learning runs on massive hardware infrastructure, this kind of model matters: it can turn noisy sensor streams into early warnings before expensive systems fail.

IN 1986 MIT FILMED THE LECTURE WHERE CODE STOPPED BEING CODE AND BECAME DATA 43 minutes from Gerald Sussman, in the most legendary intro programming course ever recorded. -> The idea that lands: to a program, your code is just data it can read and rewrite. He builds a program that does real calculus -- not by crunching numbers, but by reading the math as a list and transforming it piece by piece. Then he shows the trick hiding under all of it: in this language, code and data are the same material. Forty years later that is exactly what an AI coding agent is -- a program that reads your code as data, rewrites it, and hands it back. Sussman drew the whole idea on a blackboard in 1986. Writing code was never the deepest skill -- understanding that code itself is data a program can manipulate is. This is where you learn it. Most people think AI writing code is brand new. The ones who watch this saw the blueprint 40 years ago. Bookmark & Watch it. This one's a legend ↓

New PNAS paper. Historical GDP per capita data is scarce, but data on the places of birth, death, and occupations of famous individuals is abundant. In this paper we estimate the historical GDP per capita of hundreds of regions in Europe and North America using a machine learning model that leveraged data on about 500k famous biographies. Our estimates more-or-less quadruple the availability of historical GDP per capita estimates for the last 700 years. So why use biographies to augment historical GDP per capita data? Biographical data contains information about people who might have contributed directly to economic growth, like James Watt, or that were attracted to wealthy places looking for patrons, like Michelangelo. So we--mainly Philipp (Philipp Koch)--used this data to construct hundreds of features describing each European region. Then, we trained a machine learning model to find the features that explained most of the variance in a cross-validation test, where we split regions multiple times into a training set and a test set. On average, the model explained about 90% of the variance in GDP per capita of the regions it had not seen during training. But we wanted to go further, and Philipp really went to town by looking at different ways to validate our estimates. We found our estimates correlate positively with historical measures of wellbeing, church building activity, urbanization, and body height. We also used these measures to reproduce the basic Atlantic trade result of Acemoglu, Johnson, and Robison and to explore the economic consequences of the famous Lisbon earthquake of 1755. But what I personally loved most about this project, other than working with Philipp Koch and V, is that it shows that we can use machine learning methods not only to explore the future, but the past. There is a bright and growing future in the use of machine learning for economic history. Hope you enjoy the paper and the data. You can find links to the paper and a data exploration tool in the first comment.

In 1998, Japanese Mathematician, Engineer and Machine Learning pioneer Shun-ichi Amari published "Natural Gradient Works Efficiently in Learning (722 Cites in Papers and 9 Cites in Patents)" and made a point that still feels fresh even today If your loss is L(θ), then the usual update θ̇ = −∇ L(θ) quietly assumes your parameter space is flat. Amari asked what happens when the model itself has geometry, described by G(θ), the Fisher information. Then the more natural direction becomes θ̇ = −G(θ)⁻¹∇ L(θ). This is the same loss, but with a different notion of distance. As the animation shows, ordinary Gradient Descent follows the raw slope and gets dragged around by distortion, while the natural gradient moves in a way that respects the geometry of the statistical model itself.

Geometry of Machine Learning Models - Gaussian Process Kernel In 1948 Norbert Wiener framed prediction as a correlation problem, and in the 1970s George Wahba clarified that picking a smoothness preference is the same as picking a kernel. The motivation is that whenever data i s sparse and noisy, you don't just want a fit, you want a fit with calibrated uncertainty.

Do you know how we simulate electromagnetic radiation around real systems like antennas, aircraft, and waveguides? We break the geometry into a mesh, a collection of small elements that lets the solver compute Maxwell’s equations locally instead of attacking the whole shape at once. This makes the simulations practical, fast, and accurate enough to use in real engineering.

A Neural Network Can Grow New Neurons Where It Is Confused? In 1994, Bernd Fritzke published A Growing Neural Gas Network Learns Topologies. He introduced a network that starts small, follows incoming data, and inserts new neurons where its error is highest. In the animation, the fog is the drifting data. The glowing nodes are neurons. The fibers are learned connections. The network grows into a living skeleton of the manifold.

I got a smart meter recently and saw you can download a HDF file with the data so I had the idea of writing a script that could parse that and show the data in a useful manner. However I discovered that someone has already done this and done a really good job on it. The video explains how it works. In simple terms it uses the ESB smart meter data and shows a breakdown of how much data you are using and when and also recommends plans and estimates what each one would cost based on the data. The tool is available at easier to read on Laptop or Tablet or then your phone to Landscape.

We spoke with Michael Mignano & Nir Zicherman about Oboe; a new AI-powered learning app that lets you build personalized courses on any topic with just a prompt. As Nir put it: "People do not learn in one path, and they don't learn with one format. So a core philosophy of ours is if you're going to build a learning platform, you have to learn it the way that people actually learn. And the way that people actually learn is multimodal."

Does GPT understand the world? Here is what Ilya Sutskever, co-founder of OpenAI, says during a discussion with Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia: (1) When we train a large neural network to accurately predict the next word in lots of different texts from the internet, the AI is learning a world model. (2) On the surface, it may look like learning correlations in text, but it turns out that to 'just learn' statistical correlations in text, to compress information really well, what the neural network learns is some representation of the process that produced the text. (3) This text is a projection of the world...what the neural network is learning is aspects of the world, of people, of the human conditions, their hopes, dreams, motivations, their interactions...the situations we are in. The neural network learns a compressed, abstract, usable representation." Do you think learning representations = understanding? Are large language models simply stochastic parrots, or are they much more?

Here's how I would learn data engineering basics in 2025: - Find a data source you care about (examples: gaming APIs, stock market, web scraping, etc) - Use Python to interact and ingest your source. Initially just write the data to a CSV. - Setup an account with Snowflake or Google BigQuery. - update your Python script to load a table in Snowflake/BigQuery - schedule your script with CRON in the cloud with a service like Heroku. - build aggregations and visualizations on top of your ingested data Only thing this misses is data quality and complex job orchestration which you can learn later! How would you learn data engineering nowadays?

The biggest marketplace on Earth won't be the assets humans own. It'll be the data AI needs. Everything that can be digitised is getting pulled in to train the next models. Every scientific dataset, every piece of research sitting in a university, every sensor reading off every John Deere tractor in a field. All of it feeds the machine, and almost none of it is visible to us. What comes out is an agentic economy running at machine speed. You plug your data into a vault, and agents monetise it on your behalf, trading with other agents in real time, in a marketplace we never see. The company sitting on proprietary data becomes part of it without even knowing. This is what the Economic Singularity actually looks like from the inside. The real economy stops being the one we can see and price, and moves somewhere we can't follow. You own a piece of it, or you get priced out of it. Jordi Visser.

🚨David Friedberg: AI is starting to identify and solve problems on its own “I'll give you a science corner example: there's this Evo 2 model that they publish at the Arc Institute, which Patrick Collison, you know, is the main funder and chairman.” “So that Evo 2 model, they just ingested all the DNA data they could find in the world.” “Trillions and trillions of base paired data that they ingested and then they looked at patterns in DNA. And that's it.” “They had no context for what the DNA represented, they had no context for the concept of genes, none of the structured understanding of what that DNA does, what it is, and you know what it did?” “They fed in the BRCA gene variant and the thing output a warning saying, ‘I think that this is a pathogenic variant to DNA,’ without having any context.” “This is the breast cancer allele.” “And it didn't have any knowledge and it wasn't trained on that at all.” “It had no knowledge that there are pathogenic variants for cancer, and it identified that this was a genetic variant that can cause some sort of pathogenic outcome in the organism.” “That's a great example where there's a lack of understanding at the human level on what really drives some of the patterns in nature, the patterns in society, the patterns in behavior that are kind of emergent phenomena perhaps, that these AI models are starting to identify.”
