Seong Joon Oh @coallaoh.bsky.social · 23/01/2025Thank Alex for his great efforts and work ethic. Thank @damienteney.bsky.social and @lucascimeca.bsky.social for their continued help with this paper. We’ll humbly address the criticisms to improve it further for future opportunities. 151
Seong Joon Oh @coallaoh.bsky.social · 23/01/2025 We were a bit unlucky with the reviewers - one voted for acceptance, while the other two remained silent during the discussion phase. What matters, though, is knowing this is solid work and the method works. That’s how we survive the review process. 130
Seong Joon Oh @coallaoh.bsky.social · 23/01/2025- Outcome: Scaled ensemble diversification to ImageNet level, achieving improved OOD generalisation and detection. 100
Seong Joon Oh @coallaoh.bsky.social · 23/01/2025Rejected at #ICLR2025: Scalable Ensemble Diversification for OOD Generalisation and Detection - Current approach: Ensemble diversification relies on a separate source of OOD samples for training models to diversify outputs. - Ours: Use samples from the training set itself to diversify ensembles. 121

Seong Joon Oh @coallaoh.bsky.social · 18/12/2024 My hope is to introduce a new paradigm for human-ML communication. One that is intuitive, efficient, and versatile. What are your thoughts? Could this perspective unlock entirely new possibilities for generalisation and human-ML collaboration? 🚀 7/8 120
Seong Joon Oh @coallaoh.bsky.social · 18/12/2024 Could hybrid approaches be the answer? - Combining few-shot examples with instructions. - Pairing task vectors with parameter tuning. - Using interactive labelling systems to create an active, feedback-driven dialogue between humans and machines. 6/8 110
Seong Joon Oh @coallaoh.bsky.social · 18/12/2024Here’s the challenge: current communication options (primarily either examples or language) feel incomplete. They often lack efficiency, clarity, or adaptability. Surely, there must be better ways. 5/8 110
Seong Joon Oh @coallaoh.bsky.social · 18/12/2024This viewpoint shifts the focus away from the narrow goal of "achieving the best generalisation on unseen data" to rethinking human-machine communication itself. 4/8 110
Seong Joon Oh @coallaoh.bsky.social · 18/12/2024 - Few-shot learning: Humans convey tasks using a small set of examples. - Instructions (zero-shot, LLMs, CLIP): Humans describe tasks using natural language. - Model selection: Humans decide on the most suitable model for the task, sometimes supported by few-shot examples. 3/8 110
Seong Joon Oh @coallaoh.bsky.social · 18/12/2024 Generalisation is fundamentally about translating human intention into a form that ML models can understand. From this perspective, we can reinterpret common learning scenarios as different modes of communication: 2/8 110
Seong Joon Oh @coallaoh.bsky.social · 18/12/2024What if we viewed ML generalisation not just as a machine's ability to perform well on unseen data, but as a form of human-to-ML communication? 1/8 130
