Differentiating and Integrating ZX Diagrams with Applications to Quantum Machine Learning
ZX-calculus has proved to be a useful tool for quantum technology with a wide range of successful applications. Most of these applications are of an algebraic nature. However, other tasks that involve...

or perhaps some open-ended world model learner that uses ZX Diagrams for its world?

"many exceptional math students without mentors ... could be reached with modest investments"
Nice to see this coming out of Stanford, building on the Education Program for Gifted Youth (EPGY) that Pat Suppes initiated at Stanford in the early 1990s

Next up: Ian Calaway on early mentors for exceptional students.

Neural networks, seen as processes, have 3 distinct properties. They are:
* parametric
* bidirectional
* defined functorially by differentiation
Using the category Poly to model them blends these distinctions.
I'm still trying to decide whether that's a good or a bad thing.

Off to a terrific start: attended some terrific talks, managed to give my own (!), and saw many very interesting topics on display at the poster session. All augurs extremely well for the week to come!

Just out "Robustness and complexity of directed and weighted metabolic hypergraphs" (arxiv.org/abs/2310.03623). We propose a new hypergraph-based representation of metabolic networks that captures HOI among metabolites and reactions, preserving all essential information.

Or, as I like to call it, the “telescopes are not kaleidoscopes” theorem. It’s an exciting time to be a homotopy theorist!

An Old Conjecture Falls, Making Spheres a Lot More Complicated | Quanta Magazine
The telescope conjecture gave mathematicians a handle on ways to map one sphere to another. Now that it has been disproved, the universe of shapes has exploded.
