@DimitrisPapail There is the still the matter of what kind of project gets funded. In principle, in academia you are still “free to ask any questions you like”, in practice I hear that some questions are preferred over others.

Was a ton of fun chatting about Gemini image generation! Big thanks to @OfficialLoganK for hosting. We were there on behalf of an amazing team that made this happen. Massive shoutout to @jia_xuhui, @YandongLi8, @sanghyunwoo1219, @d_yuqing, @phillip_lippe, @SKhodadadeh,
A conversation with some of the research folks behind nano-banana 🍌 (aka Gemini 2.5 Flash Image) on how we got here, what it took to build this model, and where we go next! So much fun to hang with: @19kaushiks @robertriachi @m__dehghani @nbrichtova

Our paper has been accepted at #ACL2025 main conference!
What can VLM brings to RAG beyond input modality change? For “R”, our DSE dropped the document processing and improved relevancy modeling by preserving the content integration. Now for “G”, we propose VISA. Aiming to take a step towards more verifiable and intuitive V-RAG.

Ho passato 20 minuti stamane a PROVARE a spiegare: - se perdi il 15% di quotazione lunedì - sali del 15% il martedì No, non sei “tornato a pari”. Hai perso il 2.5%. E no, non sono riuscito a convincere la persona. Il sistema scolastico ha irrimediabilmente fallito, temo. 🤷

Thank you so much @guidozuc ! It was great to collaborate with you and ieLab members @dylan_wangs @ShengyaoZhuang ! Hope to see you soon and work together again. 😁
Yesterday I presented our #ECIR2025 paper "An Investigation of Prompt Variations for Zero-shot LLM-based Rankers", with @shuoqi_sun @ShengyaoZhuang @dylan_wangs. Yes, it was in a church! Slides at https://t.co/mpC8zN0rHO and paper at https://t.co/R0L8S9RfQ5
