Do you ever need to explain something to others unfamiliar with your work what it's about? One situation I frequently face is explaining machine learning to audiences who want to learn more about it but are not yet particularly conversant in it. This is regardless of the audience, be... read more >>

In my travels, I meet with many customers and they are always interested in learning about new MATLAB features and capabilities. One area that has a lot of interest is MATLAB app building. Many MATLAB users are interested in App Designer, GUIDE, and the future of the two app building platforms. So for this blog, I thought I would put some of those questions to Chris Portal, Development Manager for MATLAB Graphics & App Building, and David Garrison, MATLAB Product Manager.... read more >>

Very early on in this blog (2006!), I wrote a post on memoizing functions, i.e., caching results so outputs that have already been calculated don't need to be calculated again (code included at the end of this post). Memoization can provide a significant performance boost especially if the function in... read more >>

I was talking with Mike, my boss, one afternoon. And we had been fiddling with some paper as we spoke. After trimming a page, we ended up with a not skinny strip of stiff paper. As Mike twisted it, we wondered if the envelope we could see was a sine... read more >>

I recently wrote about the relatively new Pause button on the Editor portion of the MATLAB Toolstrip. Let's pause again to think about how we can exploit the awesome Pause button on the toolbar.... read more >>
