Yeah, if only Google had some sort of technical way of taking down some results of its search engine upon external request just like it is doing for DMCA requests... oh wait...
I should be more precise on the context... We are mainly doing FFTs and Linear algebra in both single and double precisions. To give a little bit more details about the problem : we run the same code on multiple GPUs at the same time (each instance of the program has its own GPU and is not communicating with the other processes). It appears that, after a random number of iterations (it might be 1K, 10K or 100K), a kernel from CuFFT, or CuBLAS, or my own gets stuck and the program is killed by the watchdog of the driver. If it was a bug with the programs, the bug should happen for all GPUs (Titans, K20, C2070, 580s) and in fixed conditions (not at a random iteration, as each iteration does not have any different memory access than the previous one, no memory allocation, just values changing). But in the current conditions, it works well on all the K20, C2070 and 580 and sometime on the Titan too. Also, the programs were fully mem-checked and are rather simple (pure GPGPU computation). If it was a problem with the driver or the motherboard all computations should failed at some point which is not the case as sometime the program will work, even on the Titans. I also tried a large number of drivers in the 310-325 range, the 325 seems to give more stable run than the previous ones, but I still have crashes.
What I cannot exclude : some (random) bad sync/timing/data link between motherboard (Supermicro) and the cards or some bit flip because of the card temperature near the memory modules (although the setup runs in a server room with a custom cooling system and show no temperature difference to other external benchmarks) or some remaining driver bug.
You're lucky then... We replaced our cluster of 580s by Titans and these things keep crashing for no apparent reason (about 2/3 of the cards will randomly hang up on computation are run fine on the remaining cards)...
So basically, the depth camera uses longitudinal chromatic aberration (the red green and blue colors are not in focus for the same distances). So it needs to have your finger well lighted at any time... I see no problem with that at all...
For the first thought, it is extremely hard (~impossible, depending on your specifications) to make a good quality optics with few elements that are (almost) free from distortions, chromatic aberration and aberrations (to keep it simple, blur) at the same time.
For the second, it might not be possible. The problem of our eyes is that they are imaging a perfect point not into a point but a small blur. The imaging quality is perfect when the size of this blur is kept minimal (more complicated in the facts, but this is a reasonable approach). This blur is due to the fact that rays going through a lens a different position do not experience the same delays in their path. If you want to correct for that you have to present a pre-corrected light wave to your cornea (eye lens) and the main problem is that this pre-correction cannot be achieved by a regular display which produces real images instead of complex imaging, where the phase is representing the delay of each point of this light wave (called wavefront).
pr(impact) = 1 - pr(miss) If pr(impact) decreases, it is equivalent to pr(miss) being increased (by the same amount). So if pr(impact) drops closer to 0, then pr(miss) increases closer to 1.
That is NOT the way to understand these sets of techniques. Candes, Tao and Donoho's works are basically about saying : what is the minimum number of measurements that I have to do to make sure that the reconstruction of the signal will be sufficient (for a given task), assuming that the signal has some known properties?
Let's say you hear the sound of horseshoes while walking in a street, if I ask you what is the color of the coat of the animal, you won't probably start by saying "red" or "blue". This is because you know already some of the classical equine coats colors which means you technically need less information to find the real color.
This technologies can also help for q signal corrupted by noise since the properties of the first might be, in some way, orthogonal to the last, leading to a clean removal.

Yes, having a magnetic levitation train, I would expect it to be more gentle on the rails... But my question, was what's the difference in energy and power between these trains going at (about) the same speed, to see how not having any friction helps the power consumption...
Don't use the word "holographic" or "holography" when the actual display technology has *NOTHING* to do with Holography. Otherwise, it just makes you sound monkey-level-techwiz stupid...
I think I'm going to launch my company "RolledBack"(TM,soon...). I am going to list all free services with a decent user base out there on the web and wait for the owner company to shut it down or break it. Then, in a matters of day, I will open a similarly looking platform and advertise it broadly to people disappointed from loosing the look'n'feel of their old medium. Et voilà!
As if stereoscopy was the only to perceive depth clues... You forget about depth of focus, parallax motion, occultation, and cognitive processes, such as knowing the size of an object and its apparent size...
(Rhetorical question ahead) Why do we never hear what the artists, the ones who actually made the song or tune, have to say about this "infringements"?

My bad, the cornea is no the eye lens, shame on me...

Honestly, admit that you didn't know what to do with ALL that CPU cycles in the first place!

Yes, having a magnetic levitation train, I would expect it to be more gentle on the rails...
But my question, was what's the difference in energy and power between these trains going at (about) the same speed, to see how not having any friction helps the power consumption...
So 6Km/h more than the record for a conventional train...
What about power?
