I guess this is the sort of thing Russell means by the disconnect between theory and engineering/science practice, regarding the connection between compression and prediction.
I list "latency" and "buffering" as differences on my page about the topic: http://matchingpennies.com/forecasting_as_compression/ Which is not to deny the mathematical equivalence between prediction and stream compression - just to say that practical predictors typically draw from a somewhat different region of the parameter space from practical stream compressors. -- __________ |im |yler http://timtyler.org/ [email protected] Remove lock to reply. ------------------------------------------- AGI Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/21088071-c97d2393 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21088071&id_secret=21088071-2484a968 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
