We've lost an absolute giant today. RIP Dimitri Bertsekas. His probability and optimization books got me through my masters. Massive loss for the MIT community and the field.
We're hiring Summer Interns! Join our NYC team to work on cutting-edge synthetic data generation for LLMs. This is a unique opportunity to dive into foundation models, and make a real impact. If interested, feel free to share your resume with me!

Another day another launch 😬
🚀🥳 I am super excited to announce that we open sourced Renate, a #ContinualLearning library to automatically retrain and retune #DeepNeuralNetworks. This is joined work with @610v4nn1__ , @lukas_balles and Martin Wistuba!

A new release of Syne Tune is out!
syne-tune.readthedocs.io/en/…… 🥳
Our goal is to make machine learning more reproducible. The library offers a broad range of asynchronous hyperparameter optimisation algorithms that can be run locally or in the cloud.

The (early) Christmas gift you all have been waiting for ;-). New release of Syne Tune! Key changes are a much better documentation, support of SageMaker warm pools and integration of YAHPO. github.com/awslabs/syne-tune… Thanks to the team for this great effort!

Time to share our paper “Black-box Coreset Variational Inference” accepted to #NeurIPS2022 with @neuralvertigo and Hippolyt Ritter. We re-derive Bayesian core sets under an approximate inference lens to make them generally applicable. Paper link arxiv.org/abs/2211.02377 1/n

Diffusion models like #DALLE and #StableDiffusion are state of the art for image generation, yet our understanding of them is in its infancy. This thread introduces the basics of how diffusion models work, how we understand them, and why I think this understanding is broken.🧵

As many Ukrainian IT engineers right now I was left without a job 😔I am a Data Scientist with 5 years of experience in full-cycle ML models development (including deployment) and in managing data science teams. If anyone sees job positions I could fit, ping me 🙏❤️

Give, I say, all your strength to your work,
make it your total concern. And don’t forget your work
even in times of trial or when you near your end.

Good times! Welcome to two new members on the team, Dionysis Manousakas @neuralvertigo and Hippolyt Ritter, who will be working with me on the interface of deep learning and probabilistic inference. Very excited to work with both of you!

Judea Pearl claims all we do in ML is curve fitting. I wrote this post to explain that claim and introduce the basics of causal inference to ML folks.
