TMLR has faced a deluge of submissions, necessitating stricter desk rejection policies due to limited reviewer capacity Co-EiC Nihar Shah reached out to authors of 10 papers slated for desk reject. Could they answer questions about their *own* submission? medium.com/@TmlrOrg/ask...

These sparse Gaussian Processes have been around longer than some grad students, but still fun to code! (and today was my first time coding one...)

I already advertised for this document when I posted it on arXiv, and later when it was published. This week, with the agreement of the publisher, I uploaded the published version on arXiv. Less typos, more references and additional sections including PAC-Bayes Bernstein. arxiv.org/abs/2110.11216

This paper on sparse variational Gaussian processes is quite intriguing... I always find great enjoyment in reading Titsias's work.

I first read the preprint version of this book online, and it was already fascinating. It seems that even more interesting topics and chapters have been added, awesome!

Excited to share our ICLR 2025 oral "Residual Deep Gaussian Processes on Manifolds"! With @vabor112.bsky.social & @arkrause.bsky.social, we introduce manifold-to-manifold GPs that can be composed together, generalising deep GPs to manifolds. Applications include wind prediction & Bayes opt! 1/n
Schematic illustration of a scalar-valued residual deep GP with L hidden layers. The last layer is a scalar-valued GP on the manifold. If it is not present, the model is manifold-valued. If it is replaced with a Gaussian vector field (GVF), the model is a vector field on the manifold.

In this work, we addressed challenges in Gaussian process (GP) regression for multidimensional and large-scale data. Our key contributions: 1. A new GP kernel that reduces hyperparameters while maintaining strong performance, promoting sparsity for efficient optimization.

Thrilled to share that our paper has been accepted by IEEE TNNLS! This is my first journal paper as a mentor and a co-first author. I’m incredibly proud to have collaborated with @richardcsuwandi.bsky.social. Richard’s dedication made this a truly rewarding experience.

Inventors of flow matching have released a comprehensive guide going over the math & code of flow matching! Also covers variants like non-Euclidean & discrete flow matching. A PyTorch library is also released with this guide! This looks like a very good read! 🔥 arxiv: arxiv.org/abs/2412.06264

A common question nowadays: Which is better, diffusion or flow matching? 🤔 Our answer: They’re two sides of the same coin. We wrote a blog post to show how diffusion models and Gaussian flow matching are equivalent. That’s great: It means you can use them interchangeably.

I made a starter pack for machine learning researchers working on Bayesian optimization and Gaussian processes! It's *very* sparse ATM since the migration is still in progress. Please reply to make me aware of people - potentially yourself - who should be added to it! go.bsky.app/QYMEQ52
