I need a good representation for this. I have an idea for something for PCmasterrace, and i think you will all enjoy it. However the face used for consoles needs to be widely recognizable by ALL conso...
I study the possibility of baryogenesis can take place in fresh inflation. I find that it is possible that violation of baryon number conservation can occur during the period out-of-equilibrium in this scenario. Indeed, baryogenesis could be possib...
This project is intended to help teams and individuals currently using a Fedora Project or derivative distribution of Linux to shorten the time it takes to go from fresh install to ready-to-rock-n-roll! (⭐ 35)

Finishing 90-epoch ImageNet-1k training with ResNet-50 on a NVIDIA M40 GPU takes 14 days. This training requires 10^18 single precision operations in total. On the other hand, the world's current fastest supercomputer can finish 2 * 10^17 single prec...
Equilibria in auctions can be very difficult to analyze, beyond the symmetric environments where revenue equivalence renders the analysis straightforward. This paper takes a robust approach to evaluating the equilibria of auctions. Rather than identi...
An established body of literature shows that a student's affect can be linked to her epistemological stance [1]. In this literature, the epistemology is generally taken as a belief or stance toward a discipline, and the affective stance applies broad...

This project takes a number of MCP servers from GitHub locations, packages them together with this repo's GHCR container, and launches them with docker-compose to run as a stack for ML/AI resources. (⭐ 7)
In this work we give a community detection algorithm in which the communities both respects the intrinsic order of a directed acyclic graph and also finds similar nodes. We take inspiration from classic similarity measures of bibliometrics, used to a...
