> on the algorithmic differentiable ring (and operator)

That sounds like an interesting read. Do you have the chapter or the reference to the paper that you can share ?

Regarding th crop of deep neural network research their self-serving and willful blindness has a reputation that's well deserved.

A grad student from Hinton's lab mentioned one researcher who would misspell a citation on purpose so that the citation count of the cited paper does not go up.

My PhD, and its chapters are junk. Just read Griewank; I don't have anything more to say than his monograph. (We could never generalize the AD operator to the hybrid mode, so it's useless for real workloads.)

I think most people think so about their own dissertation. I have Griewank.
