  1. 📐 New preprint by Gabriel Peyré: The paper introduces a new class of spectral #Wasserstein distances, linking #OptimalTransport with normalized #gradient methods. It shows that spectrally normalized #GradientDescent can be interpreted as a gradient flow in this spectral-W geometry, providing a principled bridge between #optimization dynamics and transport metrics:

    Tangent and Remainder Maps

    If we follow the classical line which singles out linear functions as ideals of simplicity then we may complete the analytic series of the proposition in the following way.

    The next venn diagram shows the differential proposition we get by extracting the linear approximation to the difference map at each cell or point of the universe   What results is the logical analogue of what would ordinarily be called the differential of but since the adjective differential is being attached to just about everything in sight the alternative name tangent map is commonly used for whenever it’s necessary to single it out.


    To be clear about what’s being indicated here, it’s a visual way of summarizing the following data.

    To understand the extended interpretations, that is, the conjunctions of basic and differential features which are being indicated here, it may help to note the following equivalences.

    Capping the analysis of the proposition in terms of succeeding orders of linear propositions, the final venn diagram of the series shows the remainder map which happens to be linear in pairs of variables.


    Reading the arrows off the map produces the following data.

    In short, is a constant field, having the value at each cell.

    Enlargement and Difference Maps

    Continuing with the example the following venn diagram shows the enlargement or shift map in the same style of field picture we drew for the tacit extension


    A very important conceptual transition has just occurred here, almost tacitly, as it were.  Generally speaking, having a set of mathematical objects of compatible types, in this case the two differential fields and both of the type is very useful, because it allows us to consider those fields as integral mathematical objects which can be operated on and combined in the ways we usually associate with algebras.

    In the present case one notices the tacit extension and the enlargement are in a sense dual to each other.  The tacit extension indicates all the arrows out of the region where is true and the enlargement indicates all the arrows into the region where is true.  The only arc they have in common is the no‑change loop at   If we add the two sets of arcs in mod 2 fashion then the loop of multiplicity 2 zeroes out, leaving the 6 arrows of shown in the following venn diagram.

    Differential Fields

    The structure of a differential field may be described as follows.  With each point of there is associated an object of the following type:  a proposition about changes in that is, a proposition   In that frame of reference, if is the universe generated by the set of coordinate propositions then is the differential universe generated by the set of differential propositions   The differential propositions and may thus be interpreted as indicating and respectively.

    A differential operator of the first order type we are currently considering, takes a proposition and gives back a differential proposition   In the field view of the scene, we see the proposition as a scalar field and we see the differential proposition as a vector field, specifically, a field of propositions about contemplated changes in

    The field of changes produced by on is shown in the following venn diagram.


    The differential field specifies the changes which need to be made from each point of in order to reach one of the models of the proposition that is, in order to satisfy the proposition

    Field Picture

    Let us summarize the outlook on differential logic we’ve reached so far.  We’ve been considering a class of operators on universes of discourse, each of which takes us from considering one universe of discourse to considering a larger universe of discourse   An operator of that general type, namely, acts on each proposition of the source universe to produce a proposition of the target universe

    The operators we’ve examined so far are the enlargement or shift operator and the difference operator   The operators and act on propositions in that is, propositions of the form which amount to propositions about the subject matter of and they produce propositions of the form which amount to propositions about specified collections of changes conceivably occurring in

    At this point we find ourselves in need of visual representations, suitable arrays of concrete pictures to anchor our more earthy intuitions and help us keep our wits about us as we venture into ever more rarefied airs of abstraction.

    One good picture comes to us by way of the field concept.  Given a space a field of a specified type over is formed by associating with each point of an object of type   If that sounds like the same thing as a function from to the space of things of type — it is nothing but — and yet it does seem helpful to vary the mental images and take advantage of the figures of speech most naturally springing to mind under the emblem of the field idea.

    In the field picture a proposition becomes a scalar field, that is, a field of values in

    For example, consider the logical conjunction shown in the following venn diagram.


    Each of the operators takes us from considering propositions here viewed as scalar fields over to considering the corresponding differential fields over analogous to what in real analysis are usually called vector fields over

    Field Picture

    Let us summarize the outlook on differential logic we’ve reached so far.  We’ve been considering a class of operators on universes of discourse, each of which takes us from considering one universe of discourse to considering a larger universe of discourse   An operator of that general type, namely, acts on each proposition of the source universe to produce a proposition of the target universe

    The operators we’ve examined so far are the enlargement or shift operator and the difference operator   The operators and act on propositions in that is, propositions of the form which amount to propositions about the subject matter of and they produce propositions of the form which amount to propositions about specified collections of changes conceivably occurring in

    At this point we find ourselves in need of visual representations, suitable arrays of concrete pictures to anchor our more earthy intuitions and help us keep our wits about us as we venture into ever more rarefied airs of abstraction.

    One good picture comes to us by way of the field concept.  Given a space a field of a specified type over is formed by associating with each point of an object of type   If that sounds like the same thing as a function from to the space of things of type — it is nothing but — and yet it does seem helpful to vary the mental images and take advantage of the figures of speech most naturally springing to mind under the emblem of the field idea.

    In the field picture a proposition becomes a scalar field, that is, a field of values in

    For example, consider the logical conjunction shown in the following venn diagram.


    Each of the operators takes us from considering propositions here viewed as scalar fields over to considering the corresponding differential fields over analogous to what in real analysis are usually called vector fields over

  23. Partly some thoughts for the players in our Mothership campaign and partly the tip-of-the-iceberg of my problems with Gradient Descent.

    After posting this and talking with a player, a side-adventure with Ooze Nuns might be a good change-of-pace.

    Saving lives through the medium of understanding

    Gradient descent to the pits of hell to drag the ignorant - those chosen to lead, to consume human resources in vain efforts to consumer more of the graph - into the light to save those who could not save themselves from yet another instance of that ever so recursive graph.

    Bureaucracy is structure for structures sake

    War is an attempt at patching the computational substrate, of fixing a perceived wrong in the world, with more damage.

    Agency without understanding is violence

    Sure. Not that #GradientDescent is any panacea anyways. Local optima are infamously its bane -- and there's a potential for techniques that look beyond the local differential neighborhood to find more global optima.

    That's one of the cool things about evolving and cross-breeding algorithms, although that particular approach has a lot of overhead. Cool, though.

  36. I say, #Mastodon should adopt this "common decency rule" of conduct:

    A poster who has not studied thoroughly the #mathematics that underlies the #GradientDescent optimisation method (of at least one among Cauchy, Hadamard, Curry, Rumelhart, et al.) shall be barred from hyping up all things #DL #AI.

  42. The method of #GradientDescent has been wildly used in #MachineLearning. Most of these ML models are set up in such a way that there is a target to be learned. The difference between the AI's prediction and the target value forms a loss function that will be minimized gradually by the AI using gradient descent. However, gradient descent can also be used in linear approximation of functions or even doing simultaneous equation linear regression estimations. #AI #mathematics
