syntax-tree-surfer VS playground

Your config, tree-surfer or nvim-treesitter-textobjects follow nodes using the syntax tree. Go to parent / child / next siblings ect....

Cool stuff. It might be worth adding this one to a comparison/alternatives list: https://github.com/ziontee113/syntax-tree-surfer

The closest to "treesitter-powered jumps" plugin I know is ziontee113/syntax-tree-surfer. Don't use it personally, but video demos look cool.

treesitter / neovim:

different code block indicators styles : https://github.com/lukas-reineke/indent-blankline.nvim#with-...

collapse / expand / navigate between code blocks : https://github.com/stevearc/aerial.nvim

not exactly colorize, but can customize to just show iteration / loop processes : https://github.com/ziontee113/syntax-tree-surfer

I personally use it for an outline window for my code (aerial.nvim) and quick-selecting code blocks (nvim-treesitter-textsubjects). I've also seen but not used syntax-tree-surfer for code navigation/manipulation and refactoring.nvim for performing refactoring operations. You could also check out awesome-neovim and ctrl-f for "treesitter", though there are many other plugins out there either not on that list or that don't explicitly mention treesitter in their description.

I published syntax-tree-surfer a while ago didn't know that anyone will be interested to use it. Turns out people do enjoy what I do. When I was in school I didn't feel like I mattered to other people. Now I feel like I do, there are people out there that cares about me, giving me help, advices, etc.. It's just really amazing!

I admit, the functionality is blatantly similar to syntax-tree-surfer, but tree-climber should work also in files with comments as well (unfortunately, I could not make syntax-tree-surfer work in my neovim setup at all).

You can use syntax-tree-surfer to select the parent.

Not the parent, but NNs typically work better when you can't linearize your data. For classification, that means a space in which hyperplanes separate classes, and for regression a space in which a linear approximation is good.

For example, take the circle dataset here: https://playground.tensorflow.org

That doesn't look immediately linearly separable, but since it is 2D we have the insight that parameterizing by radius would do the trick. Now try doing that in 1000 dimensions. Sometimes you can, sometimes you can't or do want to bother.

There’s an interactive neural network you can train here, which can give some intuition on wider vs larger networks:

This site is worth playing around with to get a feel for neural networks, and somewhat about ML in general. There are lots of strategies for statistical learning, and neural nets are only one of them, but they essentially always boil down into figuring out how to build a “classifier”, to try to classify data points into whatever category they best belong in.

I don’t know much experimenting you’ve done, but many repeated small scale experiments might give you a better intuition at least. I highly recommend this online tool for playing with different environmental variables, even if you’re comfortable coding up your own experiments: http://playground.tensorflow.org

Even if you can’t code, play around with this tool: https://playground.tensorflow.org — you can adjust the shape of the NN and watch how well it classifies the data. Model size obviously matters.

I don't think so. You can easily play around in the browser, using Javascript, or on https://processing.org/, https://playground.tensorflow.org/, https://scratch.mit.edu/, etc.

If anything the problem is that today's kids have too many options. And sure, some are commercial.

Well there is no point of using a multilayer linear neural network, because a cascade of linear transformations can be reduced to a single linear transformation. So you can only approximate linear functions. However if you have prior knowledge about the non linearity of your data lets say you know that it is a linear combination of polynomials up to certain degree, you can expand your input space by explicitly making non linear transformation. For instance a 1D linear regression can be modeled by 2 input neurons and 1 output neuron where the activation of the output is the identity. The input neuron x0 will take a constant input namely 1 and the second input neuron x1 will takes your data x. The output neuron will be y=w_0 * 1+w_1 *x which is equal to y=w_0 +w_1 * x. Let us say that your data follows a polynomial form, the idea is to add input neurons and expand your input to for instance X=[1 x x2] in this case you have 3 input neurons where the third is an explict non linear form of the input so y=w_0 + w_1 x +w_2 x2. The general idea is to find a space where the problem becomes linear. In real life example these spaces are non trivial the power of neural network is that they can find by optimization such space without explicitly encoding these non linearities. Try playing around with https://playground.tensorflow.org/ you can get an intuition about your question.
