Today, I would do Comparative Study on Sun Tzu and Chanakya.

Sun Tzu
*)Sun Tzu was a well known military General and strategist who lived in ancient China.

*)Traditional historians believe that he lived between 544-496 B.C.

*) He grew up with an education focusing on military affairs and politics.
*) He participated in numerous campaigns and succeeded in becoming a General under the Wu dynasty.

*)Currently ,he is one of the East Asia’s most important historical figures.
*)His book "The Art of War" is a treatise, not only on military strategies & warfare but also on diplomacy, cultivating relationships with other states & avoiding battles etc.

*)His work was used by Napoleon, Mao Zedong, Fidel Castro, Joseph Stalin & Douglas Macarthur etc.
*)Sun Tzu’s ideologies represent contemporary behaviours and strategies of the Chinese government and the PLA.
Chanakya (Kautilya)
*)He comes across as one of the world’s greatest diplomats.

*)Originally Kautilya was a teacher at the ancient university of Takshashila which is considered as one of the first universities of the world.

*)Chanakya assisted Chandragupta Maurya in his rise to power.
*)He is widely credited for having played an important role in establishment of the Mauryan Empire after overthrowing Nanda dynasty and also uniting India.

*)Chanakya served as the chief advisor to both Emperor Chandragupta and his son Bindusara.
*)His achievements as a diplomat, as a king maker, as a security strategist, as an economist, as an administrator, as a teacher and altogether as a man of wisdom and unfailing strategies is widely celebrated throughout India and also in west.
*)He is well known for his written works on ‘Arthashastra’ and 'NeetiShastra'.

*) While Arthashastra Basically deals with Economics, NeetiShastra deals with Morals, Foreign Relations, War Statergies etc.
Arthashastra Chanakya-Neeti
(NeetiShastra)
Now Let Us Analyze both of Them.
1) Whom To Fight?
2)Information is Key to Success
3)Don't be a Warmonger
4)Options Beside War
5)The Right Time
6)
7)Deception Warfare

8)The Use of Spies
9)
Basic similarity of approach in war fighting :-

*)Their basic concept of fighting resemble each other as whole.

*)Both were very calculative and had great respect towards enemies.

*)Both had believed that war should be profitable if ever committed.
Basic differences of approach in war fighting:-

*)While Sun Tzu had focused on basically the military strategies, Chanakya had focused on all(Like Economics, Society etc).

*)Sun Tzu's philosophies are basically influenced by invading and conquering other states while Kautilya +
+ had different views.
Note -

*) While China is using Sun Tzu's Philosophy in foreign policy and going on to become powerful nation, India is not using Chanakya Neeti and Arthashastra to become "Vishwaguru" or Worlds Leader/Philosopher.

How can we use language supervision to learn better visual representations for robotics?

Introducing Voltron: Language-Driven Representation Learning for Robotics!

🧵👇(1 / 12)


Videos of humans performing everyday tasks (Something-Something-v2, Ego4D) offer a rich and diverse resource for learning representations for robotic manipulation.

Yet, an underused part of these datasets are the rich, natural language annotations accompanying each video. (2/12)

The Voltron framework offers a simple way to use language supervision to shape representation learning, building off of prior work in representations for robotics like MVP (
https://t.co/Pb0mk9hb4i) and R3M (https://t.co/o2Fkc3fP0e).

The secret is *balance* (3/12)

Starting with a masked autoencoder over frames from these video clips, make a choice:

1) Condition on language and improve our ability to reconstruct the scene.

2) Generate language given the visual representation and improve our ability to describe what's happening. (4/12)

By trading off *conditioning* and *generation* we show that we can learn 1) better representations than prior methods, and 2) explicitly shape the balance of low and high-level features captured.

Why is the ability to shape this balance important? (5/12)
