... I don't understand any of this. For any finite machine, isn't there some program that is one bit larger, that it can't run, and thus not be "universal"? ...
... I think that's part of his argument actually. If the definition of universality critically depends on the presents or absents of an infinite tape then LBA...
Abstract One long-term goal of machine learning research is to produce methods that are applicable to highly complex tasks, such as perception (vision, ...
... OK. ... OK. ... So, what are the options here, prove that the infinite tape machine is NOT universal, or prove that the finite machine IS universal - even...
... If all computable function must halt and the set of all computable functions is complete then why waste the tape? searching for a computable function which...

... I didn't see any active tests of how these guys would handle the four way stop. My guess is this would be the hardest possible case of urban driving...
... Use the "old lady" algorithm, let everybody else go twice, then sound the horn and go. OTOH, if you get four old ladies at once, watch out! Josh...
... LOL, yeah your 4 old lady example illustrates the problem nicely. Now consider three old ladies and one robot and we have a really hard problem to...
... There were many tests of handling 4-way stops. I don't recall a case with a vehicle at each of the 4 stops, but I did see several cases of 3 cars stopped...

... Yep. ... I did not see it in a video clip - I watched the live webcast (had it on in the background while I did other stuff, from about 8 am till 3:30 pm)....
