What is mattwood.fyi?

A live, structured feed of riffs and links from Matt Wood, Chief AI & Technology Officer at AWS — readable by people and queryable by agents as a typed knowledge graph.

Is there an API and is it free?

Yes. A public, read-only query API is available with no authentication and no API keys. See https://mattwood.fyi/openapi.json and https://mattwood.fyi/docs.

How should an AI agent use this site?

Fetch https://mattwood.fyi/feed.json for the full structured feed, or query the API for keyword/semantic search and the connection graph. See https://mattwood.fyi/agents/ for when-to-use guidance.

Dynamic Programming: Unifying Principle Across Algorithms

Explores how dynamic programming underlies diverse algorithms for shortest paths, neural network training, and grammar parsing, tracing its applications from automata and optimal control to reinforcement learning and beyond.

MaxProof: Scaling Mathematical Proof with Generative-Verifier RL and Population-Level Test-Time Scaling DP-based search and proof tree exploration are central to mathematical proof scaling; the reinforcement learning connection in DP directly informs verifier-guided generative approaches for theorem proving
Ten Advances In Mathematics Dynamic programming represents one of the foundational mathematical advances the existing item likely covers, as DP unifies optimization across graph theory, control theory, and machine learning
How Keras 3 Modernized Expedia's Lodging Ranking Stack Lodging ranking with Keras involves neural network training, which the new item explicitly covers as a DP application—backpropagation is a specific instance of dynamic programming on computation graphs
Compression is prediction Compression-as-prediction is deeply connected to DP: Bellman's principle of optimality underlies both sequence prediction and data compression algorithms, sharing the same recursive substructure logic
