This is a result I’ve dreamt about for many years: *unpaired translation between images and text* I thought it might be only slightly possible, the kind of thing you have to really squint at. But Dominik proved this wrong. You don’t have to squint. Worth looking for yourself:

In PRH, we argued that rep geometry is converging, but it's still an open question exactly in what sense. I want to share some new evidence that might clarify the picture. The evidence comes from our work here, led by @schnaus.bsky.social: dominik-schnaus.github.io/unpaired-ros... 1/n

DINOv2 has never seen a caption, and Qwen3 has never seen an image. We still aligned their embedding spaces without a single image-caption pair. It even works when the images and the captions come from different datasets. Project page: dominik-schnaus.github.io/unpaired-rosetta ⬇️

🥇 🥇 Congratulations to the joint winners of the 2026 #EuroSDR PhD Award! Dr @elliotvincent.github.io Vincent and Dr Kun Li have been selected as the joint winners. www.linkedin.com/posts/eurosd...

EuroSDR post on LinkedIn:
"Congratulations to the joint winners of the 2026 EuroSDR PhD Award!

We are delighted to announce that Dr Elliot Vincent and Dr Kun Li have been selected as the joint winners of the 2026 EuroSDR PhD Award.
Dr Vincent was recognised for his thesis “Analysis of Satellite Image Time Series for Classification and Change Detection”, completed at Laboratoire d'Informatique Gaspard-Monge (LIGM), Paris, while Dr Li was recognised for “Interactive Vision-Language Understanding: From Question Answering to Guided Segmentation”, completed at the University of Twente, The Netherlands.

This year's Award attracted an exceptional 21 applications, which were independently evaluated by experts on scientific excellence and innovation, relevance and applicability to National Mapping and Surveying Authorities, and quality of presentation.

The two winners will be invited to present their research to the EuroSDR community at the 149th EuroSDR Board of Delegates Meeting in Leuven, Belgium, 4–6 November 2026.

Warmest congratulations to Elliot and Kun, and our sincere thanks to everyone who submitted their work.

The number and quality of applications this year demonstrate the exciting research being undertaken by the next generation of the geoinformation science community."

A spotlight at NeurIPS is awesome and I am super proud of the guys for pulling this off! But only one of the authors being able to attend the conference because registrations sold out and there is no priority for other authors is a bit... anticlimactic, after so much effort from everyone involved.

That's a great set of ideas, a must read for anyone starting. I think I would still do a PhD if I had to start today. I'm as excited to discover new stuff (and make cool new things) as I was when I started. Perhaps even more so now because of the complexity of what can be achieved.

We had X NeurIPS 2026 submissions and Y of them passed, X-Y were rejected. The actual counts are irrelevant, as every Y was appreciated and each and every X-Y hurt. These were the last ones where coding was done 100% by humans 💪. Also writing btw, but we continue to do all our writing ourselves.

Curious how many people actually submit more than 20 papers, so I explored #ICLR2026 data (took at 30 mins w codex). 101 people had over 20 submissions (max 54), contributing 2226 papers (11.2% of 19,814 submissions). Capping them would block at least 500 papers (2.5% total).

The "rebuttal" button and "official comment" button will both be treated equivalently - the difference in terminology between the two is to facilitate discussion during the discussion period on OpenReview. This also means you are allowed to post several comments, with a total of over 10000 words.

This year there is a change in the #NeurIPS peer review process: ACs need to write **preliminary** meta reviews before the rebuttal period and those will be released with the reviews to authors. Failure to do so will prevent the ACs (and their co-authors) to see their own papers. 1/2

We all like to play offended, but what if it's the same trend in real jobs? Either we have to agree that the role of high ed is not to learn how to do a job, or we have to agree that AI is a capability boon that is to transform jobs. It is not a xor btw, at least one of these propositions is true.
