  • 怎樣才算最好

    by 梁承裕 ...
    Series Book 7 - 數學其實一直都在
    導航推薦的「最佳路線」，究竟是最短、最快、最便宜，還是風險最低？只要改變時間、金錢和安全的權重，同一張地圖便會給出不同答案。「最好」需要由人先定義；有人必須說明目標、限制、可接受風險，以及願意花多少計算時間，電腦才知道應該尋找甚麼。《怎樣才算最好？》由日常選擇走進最佳化。最短路線未必最快，現實問題也總有一句「但是」：預算有限、資源不足、物理規律不能違反，不同人的利益亦不完全相同。書中會解釋如何把目標寫成可比較的量，如何處理限制，以及多個互相衝突的「好」為甚麼未必能壓成唯一分數。梯度可以提示下一步往哪裏走，但方向會受座標尺度影響；走到一個谷底，也不代表已找到全世界最低的位置。當可能組合多得無法逐一測試，計算預算本身便成為問題的一部分。有些候選答案每試一次，都要重新模擬整個世界；算法因而需要近似、替代模型和更聰明的搜尋。讀者亦會看到個人與系統的衝突：一個人最快的路，可能令所有人一起變慢；便宜 ...

  • AI會模擬世界，我們怎樣知道那是真的

    by 梁承裕 ...
    Series Book 6 - AI 時代，我們重新問一次
    一架還沒有起飛的飛機，已在電腦裏墜毀了一萬次。工程師因而修改尾翼設計，避開現實中的一次事故。屏幕上的飛機從未真正離地，它的失敗為甚麼值得相信？虛擬世界最有用的時候，往往正是我們清楚知道它不是真的時候。《AI 會模擬世界，我們怎樣知道那是真的？》由縮尺飛機與數值模擬開始，走進合成數據、機械人訓練、數碼分身、代理模型和 AI 世界模型。畫面逼真並不足夠。模擬要回答一項現實問題，必須說清虛擬變量對應甚麼、哪些關係需要保真，以及在假世界取得的能力能否遷移到真實環境。本書用四個問題整理這條路：對應、保真、遷移與接觸。同一個現實可以有幾個都合理的模擬，因為不同任務需要保留不同部分；假的數據也可能有用，但缺少的罕見情況或偏差會跟着進入模型。機械人在模擬中走得穩，不代表落地後仍站得住；數碼分身若沒有現實數據持續更新，也只會成為一個愈來愈精緻的舊世界。後半部進一步處理虛擬人、模型內發現、反身性和模型崩壞。當 ...

  • 算不準的數學

    by 梁承裕 ...
    Series Book 2 - 數學其實一直都在
    一般使用二進制浮點數的電腦，甚至不能把十進制的0.1完完整整地放進記憶體。既然最基本的小數也要近似，我們憑甚麼相信天氣模擬、橋樑計算、醫學影像或科學預測？《算不準的數學》處理所有有限電腦都逃不掉的處境：數字位數有限、格點有限、時間有限，答案卻仍要可靠。本書由浮點數、絕對誤差和相對誤差開始，逐步走進數值計算的現場。一條連續曲線怎樣存進電腦？切線如何變成幾個鄰近數值？把世界切成格子後，格子愈細是否一定愈準？同一個熱傳或波動問題，會帶讀者經過差分、收斂、穩定性、守恆、矩陣與疊代方法。當未知數多達一百萬個，電腦為甚麼有時故意不把方程「解到最盡」？當某一小片區域特別複雜，格子又能否自己集中到最需要的地方？可靠的計算不靠多印幾個小數位。本書會分清輸入本身有多敏感、算法會否放大誤差，以及浮點精度是否足夠；也會示範在沒有標準答案時，如何用網格加密、獨立方法、殘差、守恆量和可重現測試交叉檢查 ...

  • 不知道也可以算

    by 梁承裕 ...
    Series Book 6 - 數學其實一直都在
    兩組數據可以有相同平均值，卻代表完全不同的風險；一個系統聲稱有99%準確率，也不代表眼前這次判斷有99%機會正確。數字看來很肯定，未知卻可能藏在量測誤差、樣本不足、模型選擇，甚至方程本身之中。《不知道，也可以算》討論的，正是如何誠實地處理這些「不知道」。本書由平均、變異和分布開始，分清母體與樣本回答的問題，再把單一答案展開成一片可能性。當不確定性有大小，也有方向，不同變量之間還會一起升跌，單看一個誤差範圍便可能不夠。讀者會跟着亂數進入蒙地卡羅模擬，以有系統的抽樣生成許多可能世界，再檢查結果是否已穩定。輸入的一點變化如何傳到輸出？局部敏感度能否代表整個範圍？同一團未知被方程或水流帶走後，又會變成甚麼形狀？書中還會區分隨機、混沌與模型不足。沒有擲骰子的系統，也可能因初始差異而很快失去可預測性；模型與量測不一致時，不能一律怪罪雜訊。天氣預報同時運算許多個未來，是要呈現可能路徑，而不是逃避答案 ...
