1 hour, 3 minutes, 4 secondsBrian Beckman: Hidden Markov Models, Viterbi Algorithm, LINQ, Rx and Higgs BosonIt's been WAY too long since we've had Brian Beckman sharing knowledge, insights and perspectives on Channel 9. This changes now! Needless to say, I was incredibly happy to spend an hour with Brian learning all about what he's up to these days. Not surprisingly, he's writing code and employing… -
25 minutes, 29 secondsJohn Platt: Introduction to Sho - A Playground for DataSho is an interactive environment for data analysis and scientific computing that lets you seamlessly connect scripts (in IronPython) with compiled code (in .NET) to enable fast and flexible prototyping. The environment includes powerful and efficient libraries for linear algebra as well as data… -
39 minutes, 55 secondsE2E: Whiteboard Jam Session with Brian Beckman and Greg Meredith - Monads and Coordinate SystemsIn this latest edition of Expert to Expert (and Going Deep), the great Brian Beckman, astrophysicist and software architect, is joined by Greg Meredith, a mathematician and computer scientist. It's just bound to be an intellectual jam session!The idea for the format of this… -
1 hour, 21 minutes, 16 secondsC9 Lectures: Yuri Gurevich - Introduction to Algorithms and Computational Complexity, 1 of nIn mathematics, computer science, and related subjects, an 'algorithm' is an effective method for solving a problem expressed as a finite sequence of instructions. Algorithms are used for calculation, data processing, and many other fields. (In more advanced or abstract settings, the instructions… -
15 minutes, 44 secondsSimply working with Matrixes: Mulitplying and AddingGames, Graphics, Solar Array and Nuclear Reactor design all have a common element: Matrix math. Matrix math is like washing dishes, boring, but necessary to doing interesting stuff. -
36 minutes, 2 secondsE2E: Brian Beckman and Erik Meijer - Co/Contravariance in Physics and Programming, 3 of nPart 3 of the Beckman Meijer Co/Contravariance in Physics and Programming Hypothesis/Challenge has finally arrived, Niners! You learned about Brian Beckman's perspective on covariance and contravariance in physics. Erik Meijer found this topic to be incredibly interesting and the… -
50 minutes, 40 secondsA Conversation with Jaron LanierJaron Lanier is an extraordinary individual. He is the father of virtual reality, a forceful pundit for "software humanism," an accomplished musician, a philosopher, and a Microsoft Partner Architect working on cloud computing problems in the Extreme Computing group. For three… -
56 minutes, 11 secondsE2E: Erik Meijer and Leslie Lamport - Mathematical Reasoning and Distributed SystemsA distributed system is one in which the failure of a computer you didn't even know existed can render your own computer unusable. -Leslie Lamport. Leslie Lamport is a computer scientist and mathematician best known for his work with distributed systems. In fact, Dr. Lamport’s research… -
1 hour, 4 minutes, 50 secondsE2E: Brian Beckman and Erik Meijer - Co/Contravariance in Physics and Programming, 2 of 3Happy new year! It's hard to believe that it's 2010. To start off the new year, how about some Beckman and Meijer? You recently learned about Dr. Beckman's perspective on covariance and contravariance in physics. Dr. Meijer found this topic to be incredibly interesting and the two geniuses decided… -
