Learning as filtering: Implications for spike-based plasticity. by Jannes Jegminat, Simone Carlo Surace, Jean-Pascal Pfister

“…Most normative models in computational neuroscience describe the task of learning as the optimisation of a cost function with respect to a set of parameters. However, learning as optimisation fails to account for a time-varying environment during the learning process and the resulting point estimate in parameter space does not account for uncertainty. …”

Action, entropy and pair creation rate of charged black holes in de Sitter space by E. Morvan, J. P. van der Schaar, M. R. Visser

“…Finally, we suggest that the decay of charged de Sitter black holes is governed by the gradient flow of the entropy function and that, as a consequence, the regime of light, superradiant, rapid charge emission should describe the potential decay of extreme charged Nariai black holes to singular geometries.…”

Numerical modeling of thermomechanical processes in heat-resistant alloys by Б. Кенжегулов, Я. Култан, Д.Б. Алибиев, А.Ш. Кажикенова

“…To determine the temperature dependence, the temperature distribution field is approximated by a full polynomial of the second degree, and approximation spline functions are introduced. Using a temperature gradient for one element, the functional expression characterizing the total thermal energy is written, first for the (n-1) element, then for the last n-th element. …”
