A 1994 University of Chicago study entitled The Social Organization of Sexuality found that on average men have 74% more opposite­gender partners than women, confirming a view that men are more promiscuous. But whoever reported this finding was lying or confused! We’ll show you how to use the properties of vertex degrees in a graph to prove this. Let’s recast opposite­gender partnering in graph...

MARR: Active vision model

Earlier13,18,19, the biologically plausible active vision ,model for Multiresolutional Attentional Representation and Recognition (MARR) has been developed. The model is based on the scanpath theory of Noton and Stark17and provides invariant recognition of gray-level images. In the present paper, the algorithm of automatic image viewing trajectory formation in the MARR model, the results of psy...

Reinforcement learning with Marr.

To many, the poster child for David Marr's famous three levels of scientific inquiry is reinforcement learning-a computational theory of reward optimization, which readily prescribes algorithmic solutions that evidence striking resemblance to signals found in the brain, suggesting a straightforward neural implementation. Here we review questions that remain open at each level of analysis, concl...

1866 he used to get up every morning at six in order to get from Bath to his classes in Bristol punctually. In 1869 he went to Edinburgh to complete his course, and qualified there in 1872. He was House Physician at the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary, a Fellow of the Edinburgh Botanical Society and President of the Royal Medical Society of Edinburgh.
