from the memories from Rio, when with @leanderk.bsky.social and @paolomorettin.bsky.social we were on the beach wondering if to use the Best Student Paper Runner-up Award as a surfing board.

here is another recent application of my #mixture #law: """ If some publishes a paper on model A, there will be a paper about _mixtures of A_ soon, with high probability """ this time it's flow matching with GMMs! arxiv.org/abs/2504.05304 props to @emilevankrieken.com for discovering it

great to have David Watson (dswatson.github.io) visiting us today and talking about #trustworthy #AI #ML for tabular data with #trees and #circuits with connections to #generative modeling, #causality and #fast inference!

OpenAI and tech bros, take notes (this slide is worth the intercontinental trip to #NeurIPS24)

I am in #Vancouver for @neuripsconf.bsky.social , I should flap/skeet to show (off) all the nice #research work we are presenting... but very jet lagged and energy deprived. Also this is in my lobby

my modest proposal to advance science and hence humanity: 1️⃣ let's invest into human clone technologies 2️⃣ let's clone Jürgen multiple times 3️⃣ each University hires a clone of Jürgen as Scientific Integrity Chair 4️⃣ minimize rediscovering the wheel, extreme focus on novelty

We organised a lively poster fest with many students rehearsing for the upcoming @neuripsconf.bsky.social next week and others discussing their cool works! Thanks to #GAIL, the #Generative #AI lab in #Edinburgh for sponsoring the event!

tractability has a precise definition taken from computer science! So in probabilistic inference, it means solving exactly in polytime a certain query class of interest. In this case compute all possible probabilities for joint assignments. Shameless plug from a tutorial here 👇👇👇

for example, a reviewer answering to an articulate rebuttal by saying a) "Thanks, not changing the score" (classic!) b) plus they forgot to remove the LLM answer saying they are not a co-author and cannot provide step-by-step assistance 🤦😂

many of the recent successes in #AI #ML are due to #structured low-rank representations! but...What's the connection between #lowrank adapters, #tensor networks, #polynomials and #circuits? join our #AAAI25 workshop to know the answer! and 2 more days to submit! 👇👇👇 april-tools.github.io/colorai/

That's great to see the new levels of #spam in #Academia! They do not even write what is the topic of the journal, but the subject now lists the clear conditions for "publishing" 🤡 And beware, you are not allowed to submit a work with #plagiarism anymore 😭
