About jarrett-ye

- I'm Junyao Ye, 叶峻峣 in Chinese, and I like to use Jarrett Ye as my English name.

- I'm a graduate CS major at Harbin Institute of Technology, Shenzhen.

- I'm currently working as a research engineer in Maimemo Inc.

- I'm developing an algorithm of spaced repetition (FSRS) and simulator of human memory.

- Ask me about Anki or SuperMemo, I'm a diehard flashcard fan!

    Good luck! I'm glad to hear that FSRS becomes more and more popular!

    SM2 has less parameters, but there is not a systematic way to tweak them correctly. With the optimizer, it's easy to make FSRS adaptive to any learners. There is only one lever for…

    Would you minding writing an intro for your app if it is using FSRS? https://github.com/open-spaced-repetition/awesome-fsrs

    Andy also tested this idea. You can read his notes here: GPT-4 can probably estimate whether two flashcards are functionally equivalent https://notes.andymatuschak.org/zJ7PMGzjcgBU…

    Good feature! I guess someone could implement it via an add-on of Anki.

    I guess what you need is Set Due Date, which allows you manually schedule cards in Anki.

    Math Academy provided a self-service learning system with a novel spaced repetition algorithm which could take the hierarchical body of math into account.

    Yes, we can improve FSRS in that way. But it requires to collect a lot of review data with cards' content, which breaks Anki's privacy policy. And FSRS is my side project which has…

    Anki has a feature named Easy Days which allows you to spend less time on Anki on some days of the week. Source: https://docs.ankiweb.net/deck-options.html?highlight=easy%20...

    What does the 'Free' mean in the name? The algorithm (FSRS) supports reviewing in advance or delay. It's free for users to decide the time of review. And it will adapt to the user'…

    To help more people understand FSRS and the R&D around it, I wrote this blog about my long history with FSRS and Anki.

    Actually, we have found some algorithms which outperform FSRS[1]. Unfortunately, it's hard to deploy them in user's local device. [1] https://github.com/open-spaced-repetition/srs-…

    You don't need to beat FSRS with 700 millions of reviews. You can collect thousands of reviews for months and compare the ad-hoc algorithm with FSRS on those reviews.

    Great! I added it into awesome-fsrs, a repository with implementations of FSRS in different programming languages and different software: https://github.com/open-spaced-repetition/…

    Would you consider to support FSRS in Mochi?
