This paper argues research should pause developing new Low-Rank Adapter merging methods and instead understand *when* reusing Low-Rank Adapters works. It shows reusing adapters is ineffective for unseen tasks unless target knowledge or templates are present. Methods 🔧: →

📢We show that continuous latent reasoning has a theoretical advantage over discrete token reasoning ( https://t.co/Q2HR9NcI2k): For a graph with n vertices and graph diameter D, a two-layer transformer with D steps of continuous CoTs can solve the directed graph reachability

Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable performance in many applications, including challenging reasoning problems via chain-of-thoughts (CoTs) techniques that generate...

I'm pleased to be part of a notable group of speakers, including Laurens van der Maaten @lvdmaaten, well known for his t-SNE method, and Brandon Duderstadt, CEO of Nomic AI @nomic_ai. We'll cover both the basics and practical uses of dimensionality reduction and data clustering.

🌟 Join me at #CVPR2025 for a tutorial on "Identifying Structure in Data," where, together with @marioskoul, I'll be discussing clustering techniques that help make sense of unstructured data. 🔗 Tutorial Details: https://t.co/fKWxRn9cmN

Happy to share my first 1st author paper In this paper, we explore that Vision-Language Models (Clip/Siglip) fail in understanding basic Image Transforms. [1/4]

A fairer option might have been to remove the culpable author from the accepted papers. This would punish the right person while satisfying the egos of those who have nothing to lose. Sad #CVPR2025
Following a thorough investigation, the Program Chairs (PCs) decided to desk-reject 19 papers authored by confirmed highly irresponsible reviewers, which would have been accepted otherwise, in accordance with the previously communicated CVPR 2025 policies. 2/2

As promised, #CVPR2025 has delivered! 19 papers desk rejected because one of the auhtor irresponsibly reviewed others' work. Kudos to CVPR for punishing the rest of honest authors and their hard work. Congrats to the community for redefining fairness! 🎉

How to deploy an LLM on an edge device, especially in a car? The Mercedes-Benz research team shows us how! They optimized a small language model (SLM) for in-vehicle function-calling: ⭐️Key Highlights: * Model Compression: * Pruned 8 most similar layers (depth-wise pruning)

Yesterday the hyped Genesis simulator released. But it's up to 10x slower than existing GPU sims, not 10-80x faster or 430,000x faster than realtime since they benchmark mostly static environments blog post with corrected open source benchmarks & details:

I was at her talk and was really taken a back when i saw this slide. She asked for all the push back she is getting. It’s great that Rosalind is going through RLHF right now. Hopefully she will be aligned to anti-racism values and ready to give safe talks real soon. #NeurIPS2024

Many people are in the middle of the @CVPR deadline. So I'm sharing my guide to writing a CVPR paper (or any paper). My students have had this for years but I haven't shared it publicly before. I hope you find it useful and write a great paper. #CVPR2025

Some people have lost their titles or jobs due to plagiarism, e.g., Harvard's former president. But after this #NobelPrizeinPhysics2024, how can advisors now continue to tell their students that they should avoid plagiarism at all costs? Of course, it is well known that
