A mass on a spring, a machine that hunts for its law, and a known right answer. Even here, alignment is hard for two reasons: fit and simplicity must share one loss at an exchange rate nobody hands you, and noise decides which model looks most likely.
Hi, my name is Michael Paris. I live on- and offline in the Python ecosystem and design machine learning systems.
At Common Crawl I work on measuring how much of the web a crawl actually sees. Earlier work and the papers that came out of it are on the research page; the Python side of things is under projects.
You can get in touch with me via any of these.
