You can even use Chinese in GitHub Codespaces. 😱
Well this is trivial if you have Chinese input methods on your computer. What if you are using a company computer and you would like to add some Chinese comments just for fun....

note2self:

From ref 1

> we can take any expected utility maximization problem, and decompose it into an entropy minimization term plus a “make-the-world-look-like-this-specific-model” term.

This view should be combined with ref 2. If the utility is related to the curvature of the discrete state space, we are making a connection between entropy + KL divergence and curvature on graph. (This idea has to be polished in depth.)

The easiest method to apply constraints to a dynamical system is through Lagrange multiplier, aka, penalties in statistical learning. Penalties don't guarantee any conservation laws as they are simply penalties, unless you find the multiplers carrying some physical meaning like what we have in Boltzmann statistics.
This paper explains a simple method to hardcode conservation laws in a Neural Network architecture.

Paper:
https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.126.098302

TLDR:
See the attached figure. Basically, the hardcoded conservation is realized using additional layers after the normal neural network predictions.

A quick bite of the paper: https://physics.aps.org/articles/v14/s25


Some thoughts:
I like this paper. When physicists work on problems, they like dimensionlessness. This paper follows this convention. This is extremely important when you are working on a numerical problem. One should always make it dimensionless before implementing the equations in code.

> Growth in data science interviews plateaued in 2020. Data science interviews only grew by 10% after previously growing by 80% year over year.

> Data engineering specific interviews increased by 40% in the past year.

I just found an elegant decision tree visualization package for sklearn.

I have been trying to explain decision tree results to many business people. It is very hard. This package makes it much easier to explain the results to a non-techinical person.

How do we interpret the capacities of the neural nets? Naively, we would represent the capacity using the number of parameters. Even for Hopfield network, Hopfield introduced the concept of capacity using entropy which in turn is related to the number of parameters.

But adding layers to neural nets also introduces regularizations. It might be related to capacities of the neural nets but we do not have a clear clue.

This paper introduced a new perspective using sparse approximation theory. Sparse approximation theory represents the data by encouraging parsimony. The more parameters, the more accurate the model is representing the training data. But it causes generalization issues as similar data points in the test data may have been pushed apart [^Murdock2021].

By mapping the neural nets to shallow "overcomplete frames", the capacity of the neural nets is easier to interpret.
