I love this place, the library at the second floor in Aderhold Building. I love this table, which is not too big but just enough. This love can guide me back home.
I lost myself sometimes in some very narrow area. People may ignore the whole when they are attracted and trapped by them. It can be power, It can be sex, It can also be anger and violence.
A picture comes to my mind when I am thinking of these dangerous Local Extrema—the local extrema. I frist notice this phenomenion in NG’s machine learning class. This is the picture that he used to show local extrema.
When the computer only have one seed, it is very likely trapped in a local extrema and return a wrong answer. It is just like a person who lost himself when he try to reach the extrema unrealized that it is only the local extrema.
