Thrilled to be returning to Google AI for a research internship! I’ll be again part of the Gemini team, developing RLHF and reward modelling approaches to improve model quality. Exciting few months ahead!

We are delighted to introduce🕴️J-BOND🕴️, a novel RLHF algorithm to align LLMs via Best-of-N Distillation: arxiv.org/abs/2407.14622

Don’t miss our workshop at the intersection of RL theory & practice tomorrow!

ARLET started now! Come to the first floor to join us #ICML2024

The panel discussion is starting!!

It‘s brilliant to see generations of my students meet at conferences like ICML Conference! Here my former master student Alizée Pace with my current PhD student Kasia Kobalczyk after a great discussion about Kasia‘s fantastic paper on informed Meta-Learning: arxiv.org/abs/2402.16105

Excited to present recent work on how to efficiently query preference feedback for offline RL: arxiv.org/abs/2406.18450 MHFAIA@ICML2024 yesterday, now see you at the FoRLaC workshop at 10:30! Joint work with Giorgia Ramponi Gunnar Rätsch Bernhard Schölkopf

Had a blast at the #ICML2024 workshops ARLET and FoRLaC! It was really cool to see everyone’s enthusiasm and organizing ARLET was a lot of fun. Thanks to everyone involved for making it such an enjoyable experience, see you at the next edition! 🫡

Currently hiring research interns. If you're interested in contributing to RL research write me!

Machine learning has made incredible breakthroughs, but our theoretical understanding lags behind. We take a step towards unravelling its mystery by explaining why the phenomenon of disentanglement arises in generative latent variable models. Blog post: carl-allen.github.io/theory/2024/12…

🚨 Recruiting PhD students to join my team at DTU Visual Computing & Pioneer Centre for AI on 3D Vision! 🇩🇰 🚲🌊🏰 Copenhagen is an emerging hub for computer vision with a thriving community—and it’s an amazing city! 📢 Apply now: efzu.fa.em2.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat… & please reach out with any questions!

✨New Preprint ✨ Ever thought that reconstructing masked pixels for image representation learning seems sub-optimal? In our new preprint, we show how masking principal components—rather than raw pixel patches— improves Masked Image Modelling (MIM). Find out more below 🧵

🎉 Yesterday, Alizée Pace, our very first PhD Fellow of the ETH AI Center, graduated! She was supervised by ETH AI Center Faculty members Prof. Gunnar Rätsch Gunnar Rätsch and Prof. Bernhard Schölkopf. Congrats, Dr. Pace! Next, she will join Google DeepMind in Zurich as a Research Scientist.

I am at ICLR this week ! Excited to be presenting our work on identifiability with Patrik Reizinger Attila Juhos Randall Balestriero David Klindt Wieland Brendel. Tune in on Saturday at 11AM in Garnet 216-218 for our oral presentation and at 3PM in Hall 3/2B for our poster!
