1) I'm excited to present "Scaling Laws and Tradeoffs in Recurrent Network of Expressive Neurons" 🎉, where we question the optimality of simple neurons for network performance, and capture scaling behaviours using a minimal information theoretic model: arXiv.org/abs/2605.12049

Exited to give a talk at #Cosyne2024 about our recent work on how different learning curricula give rise to distinct mechanisms for performing long-memory tasks. If you’re interested drop by session 8 on Saturday. Live stream: youtube.com/@cosynetalks?si=… xitter.cf/roxana_zeraati/status/…

Thrilled to share our #ICLR2024 paper (co-led w/ @sinak12345 and great collaboration w/@m_giannakakis @schaefertim1 @GMartius @SelfOrgAnna). We show that mechanisms of generating long timescales for memory tasks depend on how RNNs learn the task. 🧵👇 openreview.net/forum?id=xwKt…

Very impressive joint investigation by @meduza_en and @mediazona_en on MALE excess mortality in Russia during the war: * en.zona.media/article/2023/0… * meduza.io/en/feature/2023/07… Spoiler: ~25K in 2022, ~50K until now. Here is the little part that I did, based on the Rosstat data. [1/5]

1) We present our Expressive Leaky Memory (ELM) neuron 🧠, which can capture detailed cortical neuron I/O with few thousand params (1000x improv 🤯) but can also solve complex long-range tasks such as Pathfinder-X (16k context len 🍀)! Preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2306.16922

Signatures of criticality in efficient coding networks

The critical brain hypothesis states that the brain can benefit from operating close to a second-order phase transition. While it has been shown that several computational aspects of sensory inform...

What approach can explain the link between the brain and behavior? Shall we focus on neural circuits or manifolds? With @chrismlangdon & @MGENK, we provide a unifying perspective on manifolds and circuits, just out in @NatRevNeurosci: nature.com/articles/s41583-0…. #tweeprint 👇

My team was on TV 📺 yesterday evening ;-) Really happy that the popular NANO series @3satnano at @3sat (D/A/CH TV channel) reports on our work on #robotlearning. Thanks to the team and the @MPI_IS press office. We are featured at ~21:15 in the clip: 3sat.de/wissen/nano/230216-s…

NANO vom 16.2.2023: Nutzung der Polizei-Software eingeschränkt

Das Polizeigesetz in Hessen und Hamburg erlaubt die automatische Analyse von Personendaten zur vorbeugenden Verbrechensbekämpfung. Verfassungswidrig, urteilt Karlsruhe.

Working conditions in @CyberValley @MPI_IS @MPICybernetics @uktuebingen @uni_tue just got massively worse: Mayor @ob_Palmer signed the order to massively cut Kindergarten (and KiTas) opening hours. This will hit especially #WomenInScience hard.
