Civillian Conservation Corps
Last edited: August 8, 2025A part of the New Deal programs for unmarried men to go and build American infrastructure outdoors under reasonably harsh conditions. “Kind of like boy scouts for adults.” It is structured like the military; Black men were segregated and not given leadership roles.
1933-1942.
Clinical Skin Disease Image Generation
Last edited: August 8, 2025key question: are there bias and changes in young children + changes in skin color to generate more samples of skin disease.
previous work: DermGAN (Ghorbani 2020), this is not pediatric and also a bit deterministic.
key problems
data is scarce
data is not available and lack of data sharing.
data is sensitive
especially children.
pediatric specificity
we want to generate children’s skin disease samples, which as vastly out of sample. The work is therefore trained on only 1000-2000ish samples.
clock algorithm
Last edited: August 8, 2025in demand paging, if we have to kick out a page, which one do we kick?
possible basic approaches
- random page (this works surprisingly well)
- throw out the page that’s the longest in memory (this is BAD because if a page is there for a long time, its probably accessed a lot)
- oracle (pick the page whose next accesses is farest in the future… we can’t predict the future)
- LRU (replace the page that’s accessed longest time ago)
LRU sounds decently good, but recall that \(2^{36}\) wall times to store wall time for each page are needed which is bad
