Draw a convex polygon with four vertices randomly selected on the unit circle. The probability that the origin lies inside your polygon is 1/2. Why?
This problem, a very special graph, and more: https://cgad.ski/blog/a-coin-flip-by-any-other-name.html
The entropy of a mixture of two distributions is larger than the convex combination of their entropies. In fact, the difference between these two quantities measures a certain mutual information. How does this quantity change as you vary t…
New blog post on how efficiently neural networks might encode information.

Noether's theorem applies to physical processes that are characterized as stationary points for actions. We can also look at the intermediate computations within certain machine learning models as "processes" which by construction are (app…
New blog post: "Backprop Isn't Just For Calculus"
(This semester I had to explain backprop to a class that didn't know what partial derivatives are, and this came out of it.)

Learned about the Schur product theorem this week (products of PD kernels are PD), and just ran into a really simple proof of it on Huis Addison's blog: http://huisaddison.com/blog/cute-proof-about-kernels.html
In fact this is not true, as I realized this morning. My question/answer on SE: https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/4807153/conjugation-of-integration-by-an-increasing-convex-function-is-convex/4807415#4807415
Let f: R -> R be a strictly increasing convex function. For arbitrary measurable functions g, define v(g) = f^-1 (\int f \circ g). Then I claim that v is convex with respect to g.
Does anyone know of a name for this result? It sounds like …
Oh boy, here I go learning what a coend is again.
Got my latest blog post on Hacker News over the weekend! Always fun to see site analytics from the Hacker News crowd. This time someone has even shown up using the niche browser called "Edge."

Realized last weekend that I made a mistake in a blog post from last month. (https://cgad.ski/blog/a-note-on-scale-free-networks.html). Fixed now, but a little confused about my new conclusion.
