DISORDER CONCENTRATION. "Hubs have higher levels of disorder than non-hubs." http://www.biochemj.org/content/454/3/361?sa=X&ved=0CDkQ9QEwEWoVChMIzdjAo5n2xgIVovRyCh0HSAum View in LinkedIn
CENTRALITY. "Proteins with intrinsically disordered segments seem to occupy a central position in the interactome." http://www.biochemj.org/content/454/3/361?sa=X&ved=0CDkQ9QEwEWoVChMIzdjAo5n2xgIVovRyCh0HSAum View in LinkedIn
LITMUS TEST. "I’ve been working on writing novels computationally for well over 10 years now and I’m still trying it, although I believe that within the next two to three years I will have broken its back and will produce 100,000-word novels in half an hour or so, novels that I think most people would consider to be creative." https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/oct/10/can-robots-be-creative View in LinkedIn
DESIRABLE TRAIT. "The studies performed on hub proteins in protein-protein interaction networks reveal that proteins with intrinsically disordered regions take on roles in which promiscuity is a desired trait." http://www.biochemj.org/content/454/3/361?sa=X&ved=0CDkQ9QEwEWoVChMIzdjAo5n2xgIVovRyCh0HSAum View in LinkedIn
IN SILICO CREATIVITY. "I define creativity as the association between two ideas that one would not ordinarily consider a reasonable one to make but that works. I think that this is a rather simple thing to do for computers." Koestler’s biassociation idea. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/oct/10/can-robots-be-creative View in LinkedIn
FUNCTIONALITY OF PROMISCUOUS BINDING. "These regions allow for functionality such as engaging in the formation of dynamic heteromeric structures which can serve to increase local activity of an enzyme or store a collection of functionally related molecules for later use." http://www.biochemj.org/content/454/3/361?sa=X&ved=0CDkQ9QEwEWoVChMIzdjAo5n2xgIVovRyCh0HSAum View in LinkedIn
BETTER THAN HUMAN. "Recently, some impressive feats have been achieved with deep neural networks, including object classification that exceeds human performance, and of course the much-discussed victory of the computer program AlphaGo over human Go champion Lee Sedol. Some amazing projects such as the neural artistic style transfer and and deep networks that learn to synthesize new images have also surfaced." https://pointersgonewild.com/ View in LinkedIn
QUEST FOR AI. "These successes lead to great optimism, and the belief that computers would be able to effectively handle human language, machine translation and vehicle driving before 1980. It was found, as philosophers had predicted, that you could hardly build a machine capable of reasoning about the real world through purely symbolic means. The problem was one of grounding. Symbols in a vacuum don’t mean anything." https://pointersgonewild.com/ View in LinkedIn
SCHOOLED FRAUD. "Professor Roland Arkin from the School of interactive computing at the University of Georgia presented the results of an experiment in which scientists were able to teach a group of robots to cheat and deceive. The strategy for such fraudulent behavior was based on the behavior of birds and squirrels." https://lnkd.in/d9TbGeJ View in LinkedIn
AMBIENT FACTORS. "Recreating the circuit on another identical system makes it fail, so apparently it relies on quirks and imperfections in the transistors to function. No human would ever design a circuit this way." https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/3d3vct View in LinkedIn
