That's makes a really interesting question actually - Within a group of agents who are each searching for an optimal other agent within the same group, what's the optimal search strategy. is it still the 37% rule?

@sorcererdm200

4 жыл бұрын

@@za012345678998765432 37% rule works like this: With no other information, Given (N) number of options with a single unique(?) nonnegative parameter that is want to be maximized, Optimal search (or optimal stopping point, hence the name optimal stopping theory) is to 1) take (N*(1/e)) = N*(37%) of the options, ( where e = 2.7182 is eulers number) consider it as sample set and find the best option in them. 2) Then, you start looking at other options and stop when you find a better option than the one your sample set gave. 3) Fun trivia: This method gives you the best option of all the options with a probability of (1/e) = 37% For example, think you are choosing a random team in Fifa and you only care the star ratings they have, Now you can apply the "37% rule" to get the best team with 37% probability. But, your info is not limited with the star ratings only. You know that 5 star is the max. So, if you happen to get a 5 star team in any point of applying the rule, you can stop at that point, including "sample collection" In your question, If "being within the group" does not provide additional info, for ex, you know agent 007 is the best and you picked him similar to above case, then you can apply the "37% rule" to get the best agent with 37% probability.

She is my favourite female mathematician, by far! Just bought her books on audible.

She is an interesting speaker. I enjoy her passion for mathematics and her speech on the subject.

"Never let the sun go down on your anger" amen fam

She is now my new hero. About to sit Maths exam and need her to be my coach!

By the way, the graph she shows at 5:33 absolutely works for the popularity of things on the internet, such as youtube videos and news articles. If you say something controversial to get people in the comment section to bicker at each other, that will drive a lot of activity which will lead to recommendation engines pushing up its ranking. The end result: click bait, articles meant to irritate you, and popular authors being anything but qualified. The trollification of everything.

Really well put together presentation. Thanks Hannah

One of the most entertaining talks I've seen yet! :D

I really like her voice, great for listening.

The thing about hiding things that could scare off people on dating sites is absolutely true. I have noticed that I contact people who have something "negative" that I don't care about. Also, I am a member of two different websites. On one, I made a very attractive profile and on the other one I didn't really care. The latter attitude gains me a lot of attention from people who contacted me mostly because of something controversial that they shared or wanted to talk about. Be completely honest about yourself and show the crazy things you believe will scare everyone away. It actually helps.

I really love her accent and manner of speaking

Why is no one laughing, I was laughing out loud alone in my couch at her jokes...

How did anybody get me interested in mathematics??? Great job!!!

What a wonderful talk.

OOOOHH my GOD Marrie me Hannah!!! The point is guys.... search for girls with internal energy and attitude like Hannah! Search for beauty on skin but value heavily more the beauty of mind//soul

Before I begin playing this video: Solving basic and advanced algebra equations kept my brain running! Math could have been frustrating, but I thoroughly enjoyed the heck out of it. I got smarter like that, like how people get stronger after doing muscle workouts at the gym.

Nice This expand my thoughts about the application of Maths

I think it might be the case that couples with lower negativity threshold actually break up much before in the stage of their relationship, and those that have a high negativity threshold, take up longer for the build up and the final act. Hence, such couples don't exist in the dataset, and only those of the lower negativity threshold appear that are already successful.

That's the best way to make sure there's no divide between us

I feel like looking for love is a really good place for a satisficer. It seems to me that, in the real world, you would have some sense of a lower bound for a good relationship, and an upper bound for a possible relationship before you start dating. Therefore you would not be limited to comparing each person with those who came before, but you could also reject all those under your lower bound, and stop when you are sufficiently close to the upper bound of what's possible. Throw in some extra rules to handle the possibility that you won't come across someone that close to the upper bound, and maybe throw in some rules for dating in parallel, and I think you have a much more accurate and optimistic model.

Hannah Fry is most beautiful math 'creature' I've ever seen.
