Stuff I find to be a interesting read... that discusses some novel ideas in mathamatics, neuroscience, machine learning, or the intersection in between. (My notes on literatures)

Research Paradigm

The Neuroconnectionist Research Programme

Lakatosian research program setting computational understanding of the brain.

Building Machines that Learn and Think like People

Some foundation review that discusses potential research directions in how we can progress in AI for making more human-like machines.

Theoritical Reinforcement Learning

Maximum a Posteriori Policy Optimisation

Probabilistic flavour infused cutting-edge actor-critic.
