🙏 Please help us improve the SBI toolbox! 🙏
In preparation for the SBI Hackathon, we’re running a user study to learn what we can improve and how we can grow.
👉 Please share your thoughts here: forms.gle/foHK7myV2oaK1NU57
Your input will make a big difference—thank you! 🙌
Julius Vetter (on Bluesky) and I are excited to present our work at #Neurips2024! We present Sourcerer: a maximum-entropy, sample-based solution to source distribution estimation.
Paper: openreview.net/forum?id=0cgD…
Code: github.com/mackelab/sourcere…
(1/8)
We apply Sourcerer to a real dataset of single-neuron recordings and the Hodgkin-Huxley model. This model is misspecified and highly nonlinear. Still, Sourcerer estimates source distributions that accurately reproduce the dataset, again achieving higher entropy “for free”!

Interested to learn more? Come visit our poster at #Neurips2024, or simply get in touch! Huge thanks again to Juius Vetter, @CorSchroeder @_rdgao , and @jakhmack

Thrilled to announce we have three #NeurIPS2024 papers! Interested in simulating realistic neural data with diffusion models or recurrent neural networks, or in source distribution sorcery? Have a look 👇 1/4

The sbi package is growing into a community project 🌎 To reflect this and the algorithms, neural nets, and diagnostics that have been added since its initial release, we have written a new software paper. Reach out if you want to get involved: arxiv.org/abs/2411.17337

I hacked together a semantic search engine for ICLR 2025 paper submissions! 🔍📄
Uses OpenAI embeddings and BM25 reranking.
Anecdotally, it feels much more useful than the OpenReview search button! Try it out now: iclr-search.jkapoor.me
(Fun fact, I did not write a single line of non-python code. @cursor_ai is insanely powerful🧠)

We’re at Bernstein Conference next week with lots of new work to share: 10 posters, 1 workshop talk, and don’t miss @jakhmack’s invited talk on Wednesday!
If you’re excited about machine learning for (neuro)science, come chat with us—we’re hiring PhD students & postdocs!

We’re stoked to share: “A Practical Guide to Sample-based Statistical Distances for Evaluating Generative Models in Science”.
Now out in TMLR: openreview.net/forum?id=isEF…
This was an incredibly special project for us, as it involved the **entire** lab getting together!

Puh, we have been preparing the new release of the sbi toolbox for quite a while now, and I am really glad to see it out now! Have a look, there are a lot of cool new features! 🚀
Guy Moss retweeted
We just released a new version of `sbi`, and this one has _a ton_ of new features! Many of these features are thanks to more than 30 (mostly new) contributors. We are very excited about the growing community and the new release! 🧵 1/8

We’re excited to share that the SBI package is now officially @NumFOCUS affiliated and growing into a community project. A lot of upcoming release originated from a hackathon earlier this year, and there are more events planned soon. Stay tuned for details! #opensource #hackathon

Just came from organising the the bio-inspired deep learning workshop with @BernaezLaura and lead by @ppjgoncalves. It was an absolutely fantastic experience and with great projects that I hope will lead to further collaboration.
