In a previous post, I proposed to study complex systems through a mereological lens by applying the Möbius inversion theorem. This has become my favourite theorem by now, because I think it allows you to do integration and differentiation on observables in complex systems where this was not possible before.| Abel Jansma
UPDATE: I have now found an explicit formula for the Möbius function on the redundancy lattice. This will appear in a preprint soon.| Abel Jansma
In my PhD thesis, I developed a method and software package to infer interactions and cell states from gene expression data. Both the software and the research are now published!| Abel Jansma
I was completely mesmerised by the swallows in Portugal, and while playing around with some origami paper, I came up with this simple design for an origami swallow. It is based on the famous ‘crane base’ (steps 1-7), and implements many folds used in the standard Orizuru crane (inside-reverse folds for the wings, narrowing the bottom two flaps, etc).| Abel Jansma
Generative models, in particular energy-based models, are often used to sample from conditional distributions–a process known as inpainting. One of the most fundamental kinds of generative energy-based models is called a restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM), which is essentially a bipartite, glassy Ising model. Inpainting with RBMs is usually done by sampling from the visible layer while fixing the value of some visible nodes, which is an intervention, not a passive observation. I could not f...| Abel Jansma
