Today, I'm launching my research group 🟣Neural forms🟠 @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social We study how structure shapes function in artificial and biological neural networks. www.neural-forms.org 🤖🧠🧪 🧵 1/3
A logo for the neural forms group - made up from small circuit motifs.

Excited and grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the British Election Study for the next five years! At King's we will be leading on building the study's AI infrastructure and integrating novel data collection methods. Will be hiring two postdocs soon, so drop me a line if interested 🌞

New paper from our group :) Inspired by retinal ganglion cell networks, we built an on-chip photonic lasing network that can rapidly learn to solve complex visual tasks, from classification to image segmentation, from scarce training data. Out in Science Advances @science.org t.co/enRyRVgzlI

Pushed the newest version of Syntropy (a Python package for multivariate information theory) to PyPi. You can get it with `pip install syntropyx`. Additions include: parameteric and non-parametric information rate estimators, KNN-based DKL, and more info decompositions. github.com/thosvarley/s...

What role does Emergence play in Neural Networks? We find that learning emergent low-dimensional representations is key for out-of-distribution generalisation. New Preprint out with @neural-reckoning.org arxiv.org/abs/2607.10430

Emergent Generalization by Representation Learning in Artificial Neural Networks
Dimensionality reduction has proven powerful for identifying neural manifolds, which are low-dimensional structures underlying high-dimensional neural activity. These low-dimensional representations h...

New paper with @doctorjosh.bsky.social, @drmichaellevin.bsky.social, and co-first author Vaibhav Pai. This one is a doozy - in it we show that we can modulate the degree of emergent, multicellular organization in a Xenobot with an exogenous compound (ATP). 1/N www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Are brain oscillations causally relevant or just epiphenomena? Using network-based dimensionality reduction + causal emergence measures, we show oscillations & avalanches exhibit statistical downward causation — the population influences its parts, not just the other way around. Preprint 👇
