Felix Hill was a wonderful human being. He was, not only extremely intelligent, creative and passionate, but also very helpful and kind at work. He had a very special thoughtful mind - the rare kind that I’ve learned to deeply appreciate. Beyond work, he brought fun, joy and

Devastatingly, we have lost a bright light in our field. Felix Hill was not only a deeply insightful thinker -- he was also a generous, thoughtful mentor to many researchers. He majorly changed my life, and I can't express how much I owe to him. Even now, Felix still has so much

Transformers employ different strategies through training to minimize loss, but how do these tradeoff and why? Excited to share our newest work, where we show remarkably rich competitive and cooperative interactions (termed "coopetition") as a transformer learns. Read on 🔎⏬

PS to any going through personal issues while finishing a paper, take the time to heal. I'm supremely grateful to my collaborators for their patience & support as I heal. I know that's not universal, but your health should always come first. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

I'm excited to announce that I have received the Thuthuka Research Grant from the National Research Foundation of South Africa! I will use this grant to start my own lab focused on comp neuro and ML theory at Wits University: the Cognition, Adaptation and Learning (CAandL) Lab! This is a joint effort with Victoria Williams, Stefano Sarao Mannelli and Geraud Nangue Tasse.

We’re happy to share that members of our MLDS unit (OIST) will present several papers at #ICLR2025! Topics include brain-inspired representation learning, optimal transport, decentralized learning, anomaly detection, and LLM uncertainty quantification. Feel free to stop by
