@ducha_aiki Makes two of us! They say "name is an homage to the $1 recognizer" ... what other titular gems are out there? :D

I wrote a tutorial on diffusion models for undergrad and grad students. I tried my best to give intuitive explanations for complicated equations.

Your feedback is much appreciated

Thanks to those who suggested various reading materials to me

Our work NIMA (Neural Image Assessment) has received the 2023 Best Paper Award from the IEEE @IEEEsps. This award is based on a 6-yr window, recognizing the quality and lasting impact of a paper. Full credit to first author and amazing colleague Hossein Talebi.

At the time NIMA was published in 2018, there was little interest in using learning approaches to image/video assessment, as most of the work up to then was based on hand-crafted features. NIMA showed that neural nets could be used to vastly improve no-reference quality assessment, and to much more closely capture human visual preferences.

Beyond its scholarly impact, NIMA has also made significant impact to multiple products at Google. This long-term project is a great illustration of ambitious, end-to-end innovation, from research to product impact, to which we aspire at @GoogleAI.

My daughter recently texted to me “Why is my lecturer talking about Tony?” who she knew as our neighbor in Cambridge. Now she realizes he is also a computer scientist. I visited Tony this afternoon and told him about my daughter’s surprise.

“It’s important not to separate math from life. Ask a heavy drinker ‘Which is larger, 2/3 or 3/5?’ Likely they will not know. But if you ask ‘Which is better, 2 bottles of vodka for 3 people, or 3 bottles of vodka for 5 people?’ they will answer you immediately”

Reminder that my deep learning course @unige_en is entirely available on-line. 1000+ slides, ~20h of screen-casts.

Full of examples in @PyTorch

A strange thing about getting older is that I now have a favourite hob ring, no one ever talks about it, but I'm assuming I'm not alone

@acambridgediary @Kings_College Beautiful! Why does it remind me of Escher?

Depresssingly, this quote from 1984 is even more true today than it was then.

I’m a dentist and I graduated with 68 other ones. I’ve met even more in 13 years as a dentist. None of us have been asked shit about our opinions on toothpastes.
