GEOG100--Lecture 03--Maps
The document discusses key aspects of maps and cartography. It begins by explaining that maps are a 2D representation of the 3D world that illustrate and reinforce our ideas about the world. Throughout history, maps have depicted what mapmakers see as important and omitted things seen as unimportant or threatening. Modern GIS systems have revolutionized mapmaking but still depict only what data is included. The document concludes that while maps involve simplification, omitting important data can amount to "cartographic censorship."

Magna carta and the law of nature
This document discusses a lecture given by Richard H. Helmholz on the topic of Magna Carta and the law of nature. The lecture explores possible connections between Magna Carta, which was enacted in 1215, and principles of natural law as understood at that time and for centuries afterward. While recent scholarship has been skeptical of portraying Magna Carta as guaranteeing broad human rights or natural law, the lecture examines whether the enactment of Magna Carta could be connected to contemporary understandings of justice and natural law. The lecture acknowledges limitations in proving conclusions definitively but aims to reasonably infer connections from evidence in Magna Carta's clauses based on natural law perspectives current at the time, rather than an

Constitution billofrightsfacts
James Madison proposed the Bill of Rights in response to calls for more protections of basic liberties in the newly ratified Constitution. The first ten amendments were ratified in 1791 and guarantee freedoms like speech, religion, press, trial rights, search and seizure protections, and the right to bear arms. The Bill of Rights plays a central role in American law and government and protects fundamental rights and values of the nation.
Feudal strength! henry ii and the struggle for royal control in
Henry II faced the challenge of reasserting royal authority over powerful feudal barons who had gained influence and control over lands during the chaotic reign of King Stephen. Henry worked to curb the barons' power by destroying unauthorized castles and establishing a centralized system of common law with the crown at its head. Through military prowess and administrative reforms, Henry was largely successful in reclaiming royal power, expanding the authority of the monarchy in legal matters and its relationship with the church. However, the difficulties of controlling a vast feudal empire remained immense for even a skilled ruler like Henry.
Constitution
The Constitution establishes the legislative branch of the US government, known as Congress, which is made up of the Senate and House of Representatives. It outlines the composition and election process for both chambers, as well as their powers and responsibilities. These include the ability to create laws, approve the federal budget, declare war, and impeach and remove the president or other federal officials from office. The Constitution also establishes the basic framework for how legislation is passed and how the executive branch, through the president, can veto bills.
Bill of rights
The document summarizes the Bill of Rights, which was ratified on December 15, 1791. It outlines the first ten amendments to the US Constitution, which aim to protect individual liberties and limit the powers of the federal government. The amendments establish protections for freedoms of religion, speech, press, assembly, gun ownership, due process, fair trials, and prohibit cruel and unusual punishment. They also reserve powers not delegated to the federal government to the states and people.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.JavaLand 2024: Application Development Green Masterplan

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.How to Interpret Trends in the Kalyan Rajdhani Mix Chart.pdf
