MPhys (final year) research projects are one of my favourite things about the @UoMPhysics undergrad degree. I find them a lot of fun - and it’s really nice to hear that the students also enjoy them! 🙏✨

In our new paper on @arxiv today we look at the potential for using directly extracted E2-equivariant features for the classification of radio galaxies as an alternative to group-equivariant CNNs 💻📡 Great work led by Natalie Lines & Joan Font-Quer! ✨ https://t.co/4Gi0AmRlUY

Our #UAI2024 paper, led by @DevinaMohan_ , is on arXiv! How different Bayesian approximations in deep-learning perform for galaxy classification cf. an HMC baseline. [model performance, uncertainty calibration, dataset shift detection] https://t.co/AJQE5TtlLs

It is excellent to see European research being reinforced like this - and especially to see the connections between innovation and fundamental research being recognised. @ERC_Research has been instrumental in supporting my research and the research of many other scientists 🙏
“Horizon Europe must be reinforced by focusing on the most effective programmes such as the European Research Council” @EmmanuelMacron stressed Europe should become “a continent that invests in breakthrough innovation & advanced fundamental research". https://t.co/FwFGMu3TgT
