It has been a while since I last wrote blogs for my website, and I do miss it. However, the nature of my work does not allow that. Perhaps I can write more after the next paper submission (while being overly optimistic).

I gave a talk to SenseTime-NTU lab on distributed machine learning with Data Parallelism. Slides can be accessed here.

Overview One of the poweful features of modern C++ is move semantics. So, what is move semantics? Move semantics makes it possible for compiler to replace expensive copying operations with less expensive moves.

One thing about C++ that attracts me a lot is that it gives me control over the program to a great extent. Therefore, I am starting an article series on why C++ is efficient from the implementation perspective.

The following script was adapted from https://gist.github.com/ryin/3106801, with some improvements and broken link fixes. #!/bin/bash # Script for installing tmux on systems where you don't have root access. # tmux will be installed in $HOME/local/bin.

free is a command which can give us information on available RAM in Linux machine. This post will summerize the usage of free command and how to interpret the output.

Recently there was a strange error during code compilation. The compiler complained that the modified date is ahead of current time for some objects, thus it cannot figure out the correct dependencies.
