A list of interesting papers on optical mapping

-
At GYDLE inc., I work on optical mapping problems, and sometimes I find solutions to these problems. To tackle efficiently any problem, the error model for the problem must be understood. To write software that deals well with a given type of data, this type of data has to be understood, and one must be able to separate the good data from the bad data.

Once in a while, I read scientific papers to keep myself up to date with the optical mapping technologies. I created a Mendeley group where I maintain a list of papers on optical mapping. The list is available here. Some of these papers describe error models for optical mapping.

Generating neural machine instructions for multi-head attention

-
  An animal can do training and inference every day of its existence until the day of its death. A forward pass is all you need.   Here is the current model configuration that I use for multi-head attention:         let sequence_length = 6;         let vocab_size = 20;         let n_embd = 64;         let num_heads = 8; You can see the full model here: https://github.com/sebhtml/novigrad/blob/8df6192829edd9cda3a221e12affa770fbda2a1b/src/models/mega_man_attention.rs The struct uses Embedding, MultiHeadAttention, Linear, Softmax: struct MegaManAttentionModel {     input_shape: Vec<usize>,     output_shape: Vec<usize>,     vocab_size: usize,     sequence_length: usize,     embedding: Embedding,     multi_head_attention: MultiHeadAttention, ...

Learning to solve the example 1 of puzzle 3aa6fb7a in the ARC prize

Hi dear reader, Puzzle rules The example 1 of the puzzle 3aa6fb7a of the ARC prize looks like this: A playout starts with an blank board of width 7 and of height 7. There are therefore 49 cells. Each cell can be blank or can contain one of the 10 possible colors. The colors are identified from 0 to 9.  I added a rule. This rule is that each cell has to be changed exactly once.  The game ends when all cells have been changed. The player wins if all the cell colors match the cell colors in the expected output. Some numbers: Each cell has 11 possible values: 10 colors + blank state There are 49! ( 6.0828186e+62) distinct possible orders of cell changes in a playout.  There are 49!*10 ( 6.0828186e+63) 49 * 10 = 490 possible actions for the first action.  There are 11^49 ( 1.0671896e+51) possible board states The number of possible pairs (s, a) is even larger and upper-bounded by 11^49 * 49 * 10 = 5.2292289e+53 . Given a board state s and a proposed action a, an actio...
