Dear Fellow Scholars, this is Two Minute Papers with Károly Zsolnai-Fehér.

Let's have a look at this majestic technique that is about style transfer for photos.

Style transfer is a magical algorithm where we have one photograph with content, and one

with an interesting style.

And the output is a third image with these two photos fused together.

This is typically achieved by a classical machine learning technique that we call a

convolutional neural network.

The more layers these networks contain, the more powerful they are, and the more capable

they are in building an intuitive understanding of an image.

We had several earlier episodes on visualizing the inner workings of these neural networks,

as always, the links are available in the video description.

Don't miss out, I am sure you'll be as amazed by the results as I was when I have first

seen them.

These previous neural style transfer techniques work amazingly well if we're looking for a

painterly result.

However, for photo style transfer, the closeups here reveal that they introduce unnecessary

distortions to the image.

They won't look realistic anymore.

But not with this new one.

Have a look at these results.

This is absolute insanity.

They are just right in some sense.

There is an elusive quality to them.

And this is the challenge!

We not only have to put what we're searching for into words, but we have to find a mathematical

description of these words to make the computer execute it.

So what would this definition be?

Just think about this, this is a really challenging question.

The authors decided that the photorealism of the output image is to be maximized.

Well, this sounds great, but who really knows a rigorous mathematical description of photorealism?

One possible solution would be to stipulate that the changes in the output color would

have to preserve the ratios and distances of the input style colors.

Similar rules are used in linear algebra and computer graphics to make sure shapes don't

get distorted as we're tormenting them with rotations, translations and more.

We like to call these operations affine transformations.

So the fully scientific description would be that we add a regularization term that

stipulates, that these colors only undergo affine transformations.

But we've used one more new word here - what does this regularization term mean?

This means that there are a ton of different possible solutions for transferring the colors,

and we're trying to steer the optimizer towards solutions that adhere to some additional criterion,

in our case, the affine transformations.

In the mathematical description of this problem, these additional stipulations appear in the

form of a regularization term.

I am so happy that you Fellow Scholars have been watching Two Minute Papers for so long,

that we can finally talk about techniques like this.

It's fantastic to have an audience that has this level of understanding of these topics.

Love it.

Just absolutely love it.

The source code of this project is also available.

Also, make sure to have a look at Distill, an absolutely amazing new science journal

from the Google Brain team.

But this is no ordinary journal, because what they are looking for is not necessarily novel

techniques, but novel and intuitive ways of explaining already existing works.

There is also an excellent write-up on research debt that can almost be understood as a manifesto

for this journal.

A worthy read indeed.

They also created a prize for science distillation.

I love this new initiative and I am sure we'll hear about this journal a lot in the near

future.

Make sure to have a look, there is a link to all of these in the video description.

Thanks for watching and for your generous support, and I'll see you next time!

[YTP] Bill Nye- Science is on a Spectrum: Feat. Bloom's "I'm Junk" - Duration: 4:40.

But it's actually,

male and female.

But it's actually,

Biologically,

every living reproducing thing

is gay.

And I know I am.

[audience laughs]

♪Crawling in my skin♪

Derek- It's just you, Bill.

We used to think science and evidence are synonymous.

Now I know when you started this episode,

science.

But these days, sociologists, anthropologists

are a lot sexier than that.

And they're finding science

is on a spectrum.

The scientific method is cis-male, white guy insight.

And guess what it turns out,

science is gay.

on truth.

But people,

we have to listen to Bill Nye.

I think you'll find when we look at science this way,

it is more complicated,

but it's also, just gay.

Current definitions of humans don't fully capture the whole picture.

Some people are pansexual clownfish,

other people are wild sex fish,

some people are people who aren't people.

Other people are scientists.

And then this is me identifying myself as a scientist.

♪Crawling in my skin♪

Gender is like science:

it's on a spectrum.

It's more interesting.

But wait, there's more!

Seriously this next thing I feel is very special.

This is science.

You know this woman is a crazy pansexual clownfish.

Please give it up for Rachel Bloom!

This one goes out to all my bipeds,

who identify as bi bipeds

who identify as- ♪This world of ours, is full of choice♪

Bloom's Vagina- "Not even death can save you from me."

Such a nasty woman.

NO! GOD!!

Michael Scott- NO!!! GOD, PLEASE NO!! NO!!!

Michael Scott- NO!!

Michael Scott- NO!!

NO!!!!!!!!

Slice off my moist vagina

then just add salt.

'Cause I'm junk,

I'm a ho-o-o-o

'Cause it's your goddam right.

Just schmear lots

of cum in my box.

'Cause I'm junk.

Everyone is junk.

♪Crawling in my skin♪

♪These wounds they will not heal♪

- Derek: It's just you Bill....

I learned a lot tonight.

I mean, I'm this ex-scientist who's been living

in this crazy gay world.

But this stuff, to me, is just cool.

Science is not cool.

The truth should be up to you!

Bloom: 'Cause I'm junk.

My vagina don't want ya soap.

Sexuality is anything.

Evolution is junk.

God is dead.

Science is not cool.

BILL! BILL! BILL! BILL!

Bill Nye the Gay Guy.

Is this Laptop All You Need? - Duration: 4:00.

- Hey guys, this is Austin.

Is this all the laptop that you need?

Now that might sound like a weird question

but as someone who takes a look

at a lot of weird and extreme tech,

this is a lot more reasonable for most people.

And of course, big shout out to Acer

for not only hooking us up with a laptop,

but sponsoring this video

and let's take a look.

So this is the Acer Aspire R15.

Now inside, we get the power cable

and some lovely cardboard packaging.

"Having trouble? Contact Acer first."

Seems like perfectly reasonable advice I can't make fun of.

So this is the Aspire R15.

I'm actually curious to see,

I have actually not seen this in person, yet.

I like the sort of cross-brushed finish here.

It looks pretty nice.

But of course, this is a pretty beefy laptop.

So inside, we have a full 15.6 inch display.

So what's cool is that this is a convertible,

so you can use it in standard laptop mode,

you have a solid trackpad,

and you also have a touch screen so you can scroll like that

but when you're ready, you can actually

just flip the entire screen around

and say, watch a video like this

or you can even flip it upside down

and get tent mode.

It's a pretty cool setup, I've got to say.

Like yeah, this is a little bit big

to be used as a standard tablet,

but if you flip the screen all the way closed,

what you get here is what is essentially a 15 inch tablet.

This gives you a lot of flexibility.

So say you want to use the laptop at a normal situation.

You sit down, open it up,

and you can use it just like any other laptop.

You've got the touch screen,

you have your keyboard, as well as your trackpad.

When it comes to watching video, though,

it's really helpful to be able to flip the screen around.

I think that's the big advantage of the laptop.

Sure, if you want to use it as a standard laptop,

by all means, go ahead.

But having the flexibility to just flip the screen around

and use it in pretty much any orientation you want

is a huge advantage.

This guy also has a pretty good screen.

So this is a 15.6 inch display with a full 1080p resolution

and not only is it IPS, but it also has zero air gap,

which especially helps with the viewing angles.

Having a good screen is important,

as this is a very media-focused laptop.

So you're going to be watching video, playing games,

and while yes, it would be nice if it had a 4K screen,

but that would add a lot to the price.

I think this is a good compromise.

So the last time Jay and I may or may not have, uh,

made a little bit of a mistake.

Speakers are also not bad, so that's important.

Well sure, you're probably going to want

to plug in headphones for video editing or gaming,

but it's nice to be able to know that you have speakers

that are going to work in pretty much any orientation.

Of course, this guy's running Windows 10,

but what's cool is that it's the signature edition.

What that means is that there's no extra bloatware

or junk that you have on the computer

when you first get it.

And if you're anything like me,

you know that you usually have to spend 30 minutes

getting rid of all the crap when you first get

a brand new computer.

But here it's pretty much good to go out of the box.

And since it is Windows 10,

it means we have things like Cortana.

So for example, I can ask it,

"Tell me an interesting fact."

- Venus is the only planet that rotates clockwise.

- You know what's cool about Cortana?

I feel like Cortana actually has probably like

the best voice of any of these sort of assistants.

There's also support for Windows Hello

as well as a built-in fingerprint reader and the trackpad.

So something as simple as just trying

to drop my finger on it,

and we're immediately logged in.

Now I feel like the more laptops I use

that have fingerprint readers,

the more I find that it's actually a really useful feature.

Inside the Aspire R15,

we have a Core i7-7500U, 12 gigabytes of memory,

a 256 gigabyte SSD, as well as dedicated

Nvidia 940MX graphics.

So with that KBA processor,

not only are you getting the latest and greatest

but it also should be easy on battery.

There's also support for Windows Hello

as well as a built-in fingerprint reader and the trackpad.

So that is 4K ProRes footage playing back

inside DaVinci Resolve.

Now this is not going to be an amazing editing PC,

for that I would really want a quad-core processor,

but thanks to those Nvidia graphics

you actually can do some fairly light editing.

You can also do some gaming.

So right now, I'm playing Overwatch at 1080p

on low settings

and I'm getting a really respectable

60 to 70 frames per second.

So I think that's one of the big advantages

of the Aspire R15.

Not only can you do stuff like gaming,

but you can do video editing.

It kind of will let you do a little bit of everything,

especially because it has that SSD and plenty of memory.

And while the graphics aren't amazing

or going to blow you away,

they're totally not bad.

You can definitely do a fair bit of gaming on this guy.

So, is this all the computer you need?

For a lot of people, the answer is yeah.

But what do you guys think?

Let me know in the comments below

and I will catch you in the next one.

Upscale with Prentice Penny - Upscale Your Gift-Wrapping Game | truTV - Duration: 2:08.

my gift wrapping game.

Why is the presentation of the gift so important?

That's the first thing they're going to see.

When you walk into somebody's home

like you want to give them a gift.

Of course, right.

You want them to actually look at it and admire it.

I mean, it can actually be like

each thing cost five dollars in each box.

That's what I thought, like, I could buy a cheap gift,

but if I wrap it cool...

Exactly!

...then it's like, "Oh, he did something."

Exactly.

But if you give somebody a pair of socks

and it's in a gift bag and some tissues,

they're gonna be like, "Gee, thanks."

I feel like I could buy my wife some socks,

and if I wrap 'em cool...

[record scratches]

You're not gonna put me in that drama.

You don't want her coming down here.

I don't want her coming down here.

♪

So now we're over here in our gift wrap area.

This is where I'm going to bring you to

so you can see the difference...

Okay.

...between the paper here

versus, like, our paper at the drugstore.

Okay.

So feel, like, this paper.

Oh, wow.

You see?

This is crazy.

And then...

I feel like this is when, like, Eddie Murphy was like,

"What is this? Velvet?"

[laughing]

This is some "Coming to America" type stuff up there.

Exactly.

Yeah.

♪

What I normally do, right, I think a lot of people do this,

we wrap the gift fast and then we realize,

oh, I could've done this...

Right.

...I could've done that.

How do I even upscale this upscale... gift paper?

This is kind of what everyone would do.

Normally they would put it in a box, wrap the paper...

Right, right, right.

...put a ribbon on it.

But why do that?

She knows, right.

It's a wine box.

There we go.

So I think that...

So how do we do that?

...if we're really going to do something,

we're going to use a wine crate.

Ooh, wine crate, I like that.

We're going to use a little bit of this crepe paper.

You like how that feels?

Ooh, this is nice,

this is nice.

See how it looks?

And the different colors in there?

This is nice.

And we'll use some of this ribbon.

All right.

And then we're gonna top it

with some flowers.

Oh, come on, now, I might get a sexy outfit for this.

Yep, you might, you might.

There we go!

A brother might get some heels from his wife with this.

Wait, you're going to get some heels?

No, I mean, she's gonna put the heels...

Yvette, this is not that kind of show.

Benefits Of Blessings PART 1 - Duration: 2:34.

In conjunction with the neutralization of anger, let us consider the

benefits of blessings.

In everyday life, we use words to convey our thoughts and feelings

to others.

What is a word?

It is a sound system having a particular shape, quality and radiation, determined by

our character and personality, according to imprints of habit, force of need

and environmental conditions.

A word is a sound, and a sound is a wave.

In the light of this, let us consider again the philosophy of Nature.

We see countless objects and appearances in the universe.

But all these manitestations are only associations

of energy particles.

Every energy particle is a tiny fundamental, basic

particle having self-rotative force.

Because of its speedy self-rotation, it radiates a spreading wave-

the basic wave of energy which fills up the entire universe.

When some of these fundamental energy particles

come together to form a group, an atom is brought into being.

This atom gives rise to a collective wave, from all the constituent basic energy

particles.

Two or more atoms form a molecule.

Then the third aggregate layer of wave starts.

In this manner, everything-from the individual particle to the largest

star-radiates its own wave.

This is because of energy functioning at various levels.

When a wave comes from something, it has all the qualities of the

object from which it originated.

A wave coming from a rose, for instance, has the fragrant characteristic

of that flower.

In like manner, any wave emanating from anything has a distinct

quality-mechanical, chemical, magnetic, electrical and psychic.

All functions, contents and characteristics of the objects are transmitted

from the wave, through the wave and by the wave.

A Day In My Life +Weight loss advice ll Subtitles added ll ReallIfe Realhome - Duration: 12:37.

It's 11 am right Now .

Many of you ask me often : How to lose weight and be active ?

You often ask what is your secret to weight loss?

So the answer is there is no secret:)

If we see on youtube these days

So many video with million of views

With Titles Like: " how to lose 15 kg in 10 days? or " how to lose 10 kg in 10 days? how to lose 4 inches from your waist in 7 days?

Without execrcise

People will be asking you to drink Miracle drink, miracle tea even miracle Roti:)

Before telling my thoughts .. I would like to put a disclaimer that I am not a nutritionist or a doctor. I have learnt it from my own mistakes.

The first thing is not to go after short term solutions or fad diets

This is a lifestyle Change . Not a matter of just few days or months

You have to think Exercise as part of your life just like eating, bathing and breathing

Diet plays an important role too and so is sleep.

If you think you will just go walking for two days expecting the results... that will not work:(

You yourself know everything.... but the only problem is you are not following ...

Eat clean and healthy.. whenever you are passing by the kitchen take a glass of water

Have atleast 7-8 hours of sleep

You will wake up fresh ... and will not feel lazy

Always remember that fad diets and crash diets will give you repercussions later on in your life.

Specially Young women... please please stay away from fad diets. You will see the affects later on your skin, hair and body

Human body is designed in a way that it has to MOVE

Don't make unsustainable goals.... like if you leave everything together: bread, sugar , sweets etc.... your chances to fail will increase more....

Its better to lookout for more healthy food options.

Eat everything but in moderation

Eat less of fried food but don't leave it altogether unless you have a health condition

When it comes to me ... I too had fluctuations in my weight .... I try to walk ( sometimes I forget:(... but I keep trying

I try to drink enough water and take good sleep

I am a normal person like you so I also have stress sometimes when I eat junk..... but try to avoid it.... and dont let one mistake ruin the hard work you have put so far

Keep doing it... and let me know if you see some change in yourself by following these simple rules.

Now I will go and give my son an apple. Will edit and then sleep for sometime.

He is asking me to drink my TEA:)

This Is the New York Yankees' New Secret Weapon || Rising Stars - Duration: 2:31.

Aaron Judge: The Lord blessed me with long arms, so I think my long arms kind of helped

me with the bigger strike zone a little bit, but ah ... and I'm jealous that they can ride

roller coasters, you know there's some roller coasters that I can't fit on anymore, so.

You know as a kid growing up, I kind of just wanted to be outdoors and play any sport I

could, soccer, football, basketball, baseball.

It wasn't probably until I think around high school that I kind of, high school, college

I think that I maybe had a future in baseball.

Oh, the debut, that was a crazy day 'cause when I first got the calls, it was about midnight,

I was in Rochester, New York with my family, I just finished a game there, then I got told

and I hopped in the car, drove about five, six hours, maybe slept maybe an hour to be

honest and then had to wake up for a one o'clock game, so it was a pretty hectic day, but once

I got to the field, once I started playing, you know, nerves kind of went away.

When I'm walking with the play, I just try to have a clear mind and just stick to my

approach, which is trying to drive the ball to center field and that's all really want

to think about 'cause when you start thinking about too many things, like going up to the

plate, you know, you kind of get into trouble.

I try to prepare as best I can, you know, so all my preparation for the pitcher, you

know, goes in not only that morning or day, but the night before, you know, I'm watching

video.

You know, if I wasn't playing baseball, I'd probably be a teacher.

I'd probably follow my parents' footsteps because my older brother, he's a teacher as

well so I think it just kind of ran in the family, so for me, I'd probably be a science

or a math teacher.

I've kind of grown up in this organization, you know we've been blessed with a lot of

veterans, you know like huge veteran presence in this clubhouse in the past couple of years,

so I had a chance to pick the brains of Jeter, A-Rod, Mark Teixeira.

This year especially man, getting Matt Holliday, Chris Carter, yeah, just a couple of bigger

guys, but successful at this game it's been kind of fun picking Matty's brain a little

big about experiences, being in the World Series, how to handle certain situations.

Flight Sim World - Announce Video - Duration: 2:41.

Flight Sim World is an incredibly exciting challenge, it's about moving flight simulation forward.

We're bringing Flight Sim World to Early Access.

We believe it makes no sense to work in isolation, so we wish to work with the community,

engage with them to shape the future of Flight Sim World over the coming weeks and months.

Things have changed dramatically in the flight simulation space over recent years.

Not just in hardware configurations and the available power, but in the demands of the audience.

What we're trying to do at Dovetail is provide a platform that will stand the test of the

time over the next five or ten years.

Dovetail has listened a lot to the community, being able to unleash what the hardware can

do today is very good for longevity.

So we moved from DX9 to DX11, we changed from a 32 bit application to a 64 bit application

and we also tried to rebalance the usage between the CPU and the GPU.

What our flight sim offers is the opportunity to really appreciate the aircraft in a way

not previously possible.

We've integrated a host of new technologies, physically based rendering, image based lighting,

ambient occlusion.

We've captured even minute details in the aircraft, such as gauges wobbling under motion,

the perspex shimmers.

The systems in the aeroplanes are all faithfully represented.

You really feel as though you're in that cockpit at 3000 feet.

We work with a number of third party developers, who have years of experience creating

top quality flight simulation content.

To the extent that we've engaged with some of them to provide content that is part of

the core Flight Sim World software.

As a pilot, you care hugely about the environments around you.

It has to be accurately portrayed in Flight Sim World in order for you to fear it.

For those people who want to take it to the next step, we have the pro mission tool.

Which will allow you to use the same tools that the designers at Dovetail are using to create content.

I'm really passionate about aviation and aeroplanes,

being able to work on Flight Sim World is sort of a dream come true.

It allows me to try and bring that involvement that I've had with aeroplanes

and all the finer details into the simulator.

Warhammer 40000 Dawn Of War 3 - Mission 08 None Left Behind - Duration: 28:53.

Welcome to the eighth mission of my Warhammer 40000 Dawn Of War III walkthrough.

Our dumb Inquisitor thinks that Diomedes is lost, howewer Angelos wants to clear his resting place out of the Orks and Eldars.

In this mission we do not build a base or train units, it's a typical commando mission.

And oh boy, we are introduced to the Terminator Elites, their firepower with missiles special power is devastating.

It's a squad of 3 resilient and dangerous guys in Power Armors, excellent in ranged warfare - they've also got some drawbacks.

First, do not let them overwhelmed in melee combat, there are only 3 of them and Assault Terminators are better in this type of combat.

They can take a lot of punch too, but they are great when covered by other units, being surrounded by Boyz or Banshees make them basically out of combat.
