Missing momentum is effectively the only way that the main detectors at the LHC (like CMS) can measure the indirect signs of neutrinos (or undiscovered particles). This #CMSPaper present how we use #machinelearning to make our missing momentum measurement much, much better: arxiv.org/abs/2509.12012

As much as I loathe LLM "AI" built from hoards of stolen data, machine learning "AI" has become terrifically useful.

This past week I had 10 audio recorders set out in the forest and nearby grassland, all recording non-stop from Monday afternoon to Friday morning. That was on our recent university field ecology field trip.

Today I downloaded all the files to a hard drive (156 GB of data) and then I set my little M1 Macbook Air to work, using the offline desktop BirdNet app to identify all of the birds in the recordings.

It took most of the day, and now I have a 42,284 row spreadsheet of birds detected.

It really feels like magic.

Here's a quick sorted lists of all the bird detections with species IDs with a confidence score >0.9.

Together with the students in the course, we'll later compare how birds have changed since we started doing this in 2020, and how the birds in the grassland differ from the forest.

#birds #BirdNet #ecology #nz #MachineLearning

A screenshot of an R output listing bird scientific names and the number of detections made by BirdNet with a certainty >0.9. They're listed in order from most common, with the top eight birds being silvereyes, bellbirds, yellowhammers, greenfinches, fantails, riflemen, grey warblers, and dunnocks.

In the Reverse Engineering world, we have a rule: You don't own it until you can take it apart.

The same applies to Artificial Intelligence.

We are currently drowning in API wrappers. Everyone is "building AI apps," but very few people are looking at the wiring underneath. To truly understand modern LLMs, I decided to stop using libraries. I went back to the drawing board to build a custom architecture from scratch.

Meet SARAN (Shallow Auto-Regressive Attention Network).

It’s not designed to beat GPT-4. It’s designed to be transparent. 🔹 I built a strict 15-stage computational graph. 🔹 I manually implemented backpropagation to trace the gradients. 🔹 I scaled it to a 354M parameter model to watch how it learns.

I’ve documented the entire build log—including the architecture decisions and the "why" behind the math—in my new engineering newsletter, Bits & Neurons.

If you want to move beyond the hype and understand the mechanics of AI, read the full breakdown here: https://mytechnotalent.substack.com

AI is stepping up to help diagnose cervical cancer more accurately. Studies show AI can detect cancer cells in biopsies with comparable results to human pathologists. But challenges like inconsistent training data and the need for clinical validation remain. It's a promising tool, but not quite ready to replace doctors yet. 😐

Binary Fuse Filters: Fast and Smaller Than XOR Filters

https://arxiv.org/abs/2201.01174

#HackerNews #BinaryFuseFilters #FastAlgorithms #XORFilters #DataStructures #MachineLearning

Binary Fuse Filters: Fast and Smaller Than Xor Filters

Bloom and cuckoo filters provide fast approximate set membership while using little memory. Engineers use them to avoid expensive disk and network accesses. The recently introduced xor filters can be faster and smaller than Bloom and cuckoo filters. The xor filters are within 23% of the theoretical lower bound in storage as opposed to 44% for Bloom filters. Inspired by Dietzfelbinger and Walzer, we build probabilistic filters -- called binary fuse filters -- that are within 13% of the storage lower bound -- without sacrificing query speed. As an additional benefit, the construction of the new binary fuse filters can be more than twice as fast as the construction of xor filters. By slightly sacrificing query speed, we further reduce storage to within 8% of the lower bound. We compare the performance against a wide range of competitive alternatives such as Bloom filters, blocked Bloom filters, vector quotient filters, cuckoo filters, and the recent ribbon filters. Our experiments suggest that binary fuse filters are superior to xor filters.
