FROM DATA TO LAWS. "We have demonstrated the discovery of physical laws, from scratch, directly from experimentally captured data with the use of a computational search. We used the presented approach to detect nonlinear energy conservation laws, Newtonian force laws, geometric invariants, and system manifolds in various synthetic and physically implemented systems without prior knowledge about physics, kinematics, or geometry." https://lnkd.in/dJJ9HmD View in LinkedIn

"SELF-MODIFYING CODE allows for code injection attacks such as “Stack smashing”, “Format string attacks” and many others. In these attacks, the injected code is written to a program’s memory as input data to which control is subsequently transferred. The majority of attacks of this kind are prevented today at the hardware level by marking writable memory pages as non-executable." https://lnkd.in/dHTSZ_H View in LinkedIn

LIPSON'S EUREQUA was capable of "deriving Newton's second law of motion from a data set of positions and velocities of a double pendulum." Breathtaking achievement. Read again. https://lnkd.in/dHKcrCf View in LinkedIn

CODE VERSUS DATA. "Self-modifying code weakens the distinction between program code and data." https://lnkd.in/dHTSZ_H View in LinkedIn

PROFESSOR HOD LIPSON. "Beginning in 2009, he and his Cornell University graduate student Michael Schmidt developed software named Eureqa capable of deriving equations, mathematical relationships and laws of nature from sets of data." https://lnkd.in/dHKcrCf View in LinkedIn

FEW LIMITS. "Metalearning (or Meta-Learning) means learning the credit assignment method itself through self-modifying code. Metalearning may be the most ambitious but also the most rewarding goal of machine learning. There are few limits to what a good metalearner will learn." https://lnkd.in/dgfxJ_E View in LinkedIn

MACHINE LEARNING. "The Pentagon is particularly interested in this game. Through DARPA, its hoping to develop a computer that can teach itself. Ultimately, it wants to create machines that are able to perform a number of complex tasks, like unsupervised learning, vision, planning, and statistical model selection. https://lnkd.in/dp3ZKye View in LinkedIn

CONCEPTS WITHIN CODE. "Sarkar’s team is trying to develop software that analyzes not only text, but also the concepts expressed in code, regardless of the programming language it’s written in. Sarkar hopes this will enable PLINY to suggest even large chunks of code that can seamlessly integrate with what a developer has already written." (A DARPA venture). https://lnkd.in/d42vHmf View in LinkedIn

DIMINISHING IMPULSE CONTROL. "The time between a person’s need and the ability to satisfy it through the web is shrinking." https://lnkd.in/dASsZrK View in LinkedIn
