HI Chetan,

That's brilliant to hear, congrats and enjoy! It's a great sign of a
community that a contributor can graduate to work full time on the software.

Another great video where the details are presented and everyone gets to
discuss the implications and alternatives.

When we were discussing this idea last year, I didn't really Grok how it
worked, so your explanation and the discussion were invaluable in making it
clear that this is an avenue worth pursuing. I've done a little work on it
and have produced a short analysis [1] of a first-stab implementation.
Please take a look and let me know if this is along the lines of your plan.

As Subutai mentioned, this design does not take into account the statistics
of the data. As mentioned, there is a NonUniformScalarEncoder in the python
source which has the bits needed for this. I think a combination of the two
would be a fascinating project.

Regards, and congrats again!

Fergal Byrne
