The Thermodynamic Costs of Simple Linear Regression
D'Ambrosia, Samuel H., Daniels, Sultan M., DeWeese, Michael R., Sahai, Anant
The construction of models from data is a significant contributor to the energetic costs of computation. Because of this, understanding how foundational thermodynamic bounds apply to modeling algorithms will be increasingly important. Here, we study the thermodynamic costs of a basic and fundamental modeling algorithm: simple linear regression. Following Landauer, we approximate the thermodynamic lower bound on irreversibly performing both exact linear regression and linear regression via stochastic gradient descent as implemented on floating-point numbers. From this, we derive energycost aware scaling laws for the optimal dataset size for training a linear regression model given a generalization error dependent demand for inference. Additionally, we discuss a method to lower bound the entropy production from the mismatch cost for algorithms with continuous input variables.
We have made comparison with assorted editing tasks, including face relighting (FR), 2

Bayesian estimation of discrete entropy with mixtures of stick-breaking priors
We consider the problem of estimating Shannon's entropy H in the under-sampled regime, where the number of possible symbols may be unknown or countably infinite. Pitman-Yor processes (a generalization of Dirichlet processes) provide tractable prior distributions over the space of countably infinite discrete distributions, and have found major applications in Bayesian non-parametric statistics and machine learning. Here we show that they also provide natural priors for Bayesian entropy estimation, due to the remarkable fact that the moments of the induced posterior distribution over H can be computed analytically. We derive formulas for the posterior mean (Bayes' least squares estimate) and variance under such priors. Moreover, we show that a fixed Dirichlet or Pitman-Yor process prior implies a narrow prior on H, meaning the prior strongly determines the entropy estimate in the under-sampled regime.
