A few months ago I came across maximum mean discrepancy as a measure of distribution difference, and today I read this term and totally forgot what is means and had to find a youtube video to refresh my understanding. This happens a lot of times in my research. I feel like unless something is really basic (e.g. CNN, cross entropy, etc) and used a lot in my day-to-day model building, I easily forgot what I have read. I wonder is it just because I have a bad memory or I do not have a good way to organize information?

    I use Obsidian to note things with markdown + highlight things in the paper + eventually make slides about it

    I think about writing blog posts about some methods on my web page to further my understanding of some techniques.

      I do the same thing but with Notion. I try to recollect the most key points of a paper, book, etc. and put in the text key words to find them with Ctrl + F and make my own Wiki. Also I use some LLM to resume the content, correct them and stuffs like that.

        Does notion comes with Zotero integration ? I use Obsidian because it’s free + I can easily import a paper from my collections with a template which contains the paper’s name, authors etc. I like the community plugins too, makes everything pretty convenient.
