当地时间 1 月 11 日,在宾夕法尼亚州匹兹堡的 Rivers 赌场,由卡耐基梅隆大学(
CMU)开发的名为 Libratus 的人工智能系统将与人类顶级职业德州扑克玩家进行 20
万美元的比赛。然而 CMU 并不是唯一一个在研究如何让人工智能学习玩扑克牌的地方
,近日,加拿大阿尔伯塔大学、捷克布拉格查理大学和捷克理工大学的研究者联合发表
了一篇论文,表示其人工智能已经在无限制扑克(No-Limit Poker)游戏上达到了专家
级的水平。点击阅读原文可下载该论文。
摘要
近些年来,人工智能领域出现了很多突破,其中游戏往往被用作重要的里程碑。过去实
现那些成功的游戏的一个常见的特征是它们都涉及到玩家之间的信息对称,即所有的玩
家都获取了相同的信息。然而和游戏相比,这种完美信息(perfect information)的
性质在真实世界问题中却少见得多。扑克是一个典型的不完美信息(impe... 阅读全帖 |

像纯歌剧这么稳定的低喉头确实护嗓,音量也大。。。但副作用(side effect)也就
是声音显得更多的 manipulated 的感觉,也就是离自然人声的距离有点远。。。或者
用 Brett Manning 的用词就是,声音比较
dopey 一些。。。或者用我无厘头的用词就是,有点像把头伸在抽水马桶里唱歌的效
果。(我承认这个说法确实无厘头,但是文学表达效果给力。)
我其实尝试了一下波切利那种音色,确实感觉如果模仿过猛的话,声带压力有点大。。
。但这个貌似确实可以折中,也就是主观上加强气息支持(客观上是声带支持),同时
通过调节口腔形状(sound modifier),以及允许喉头一定程度的自由活动但也不要灵
活度过猛,貌似可以在自然音色和护嗓两者之间取得折中。。。当然这里的另一个前提
是绝对音量不是考虑因子(not a optimization target or constraint),只要帮助
达到所需的音色就行,反正后期会用 clean / clarity 的压缩器。。。 |

经过深思熟虑之后,我决定再次“抛弃”我的博士学位。这是我第三次决定离开博士学
位,也应该是最后一次了。这应该不是什么惊人的消息,因为我虽然读博士 10 年了,
可是我的目标从来就不是博士学位。我在寻找更重要的东西,而且那个东西已经被我找
到了。所以我的“博士生涯”其实完成了它的使命,基本上可以圆满结束了。
如果你从我之前的博文判定我现在生活在我所向往的环境中,那么你就误会了。我
学到了我想要的东西,但是却发现学术界不再是我向往的地方。相反,它阻碍了我的前

如今,SpaceX公司的猎鹰9号运载火箭的Block 5 版本高调出场。
这个改进型号被称作“目前最理想的可回收运载火箭”“有可能跨进重复使用100次门

那么,猎鹰9号运载火箭的Block 5 版本相较于之前的火箭有哪些改进?
(改进程度之大,让小火箭觉得有必要再次为猎鹰9号火箭开启新的话题。)

government contractors, postal workers, members of Congress, Congressional
staffers, or federal court judges and workers.
