KUIS AI in the flesh:

You may have heard that algorithms don't just reflect bias, they amplify it Here's a very visual example of that... We generate portraits that are "closest" to a given text prompt🤳 Here, the prompt is "terrorist" and the output isn't a bearded guy, or a hijabi... but BOTH😬

1- Letters of recommendation play a big role in the review process. Sure, there’s GPA, awards, SOP & maybe papers. But for me (& many colleagues), a single great letter >> everything else. Interestingly, 1 bad letter doesn't negatively impact a student's chances as much

For the past few months, MMitchell, Yacine Jernite and I have been working on the exploration of popular NLP datasets. Here are some fun things we discovered!

After 2 years of work by 442 contributors across 132 institutions, I am thrilled to announce that the github.com/google/BIG-ben… paper is now live: arxiv.org/abs/2206.04615. BIG-bench consists of 204 diverse tasks to measure and extrapolate the capabilities of large language models.

Üniversite mezuniyetlerindeyim; yeğenlerim, öğrencilerim için. Koç Üniversitesi’nde bir ilk... İlk defa bir uluslararası öğrenci üniversitenin birincisi oluyor. Bilgisayar Mühendisliği’nden mezun, geleceğin AI uzmanı Suriye - Filistin kökenli Shadi Hamdan’ı yürekten kutluyorum.

Immensely thankful to the Abdulla Al Ghurair Foundation for Education AGF for their continuous support throughout my undergraduate education. Special thanks to all my fellow peers and mentors, without them none of this would have been possible :)

Very happy to announce our latest paper which has just been accepted to #NeurIPS2022! Very grateful to all my collaborators Serdar Ozsoy Deniz Yuret Sercan Arık and Alper Erdogan 😃

💫We're happy to share that our MS student Serdar Ozsoy and faculty members Alper Erdogan and Deniz Yuret presented posters of the two papers at #NeurIPS2022 in USA, and our MS student Bariscan Bozkurt made a successful virtual presentation in #NeurIPS2022 Oral Session. Congrats!👏🏼

Happy to see that OpenAI used our Chart Question answering benchmark (arxiv.org/pdf/2203.10244…) in evaluating their newly released GPT-4. Here's GPT-4's output for a ChartQA sample (cdn.openai.com/papers/gpt-4.p…). Nice explanatory answer! Shafiq Joty Ahmed Masry Do Xuan Long

we can now talk about “RbA: Segmenting Unknown Regions Rejected by All” accepted at #ICCV2023. we found that when we find and classify regions with Mask2Former, each object query focuses on a known class. so we can find unknowns as pixels rejected by all, hence the funny name 😃

Modelling the underlying 3D scene structure greatly improves unsupervised multi-object segmentation. Check out our method for estimating segmentation mask and depth at the same time, accepted at #ICCV2023: kuis-ai.github.io/multi-object-s… great work by Sadra Everwake KUIS AI

📚 Thrilled to have attended the MLSS^S 2023 in Kraków, Poland! 🇵🇱🤩 This summer school was an invaluable experience, introducing us to state-of-the-art topics in #MachineLearning and its applications across fundamental sciences.

Delighted that our paper "RbA: Segmenting Unknown Regions Rejected by All" has been accepted at #ICCV2023 paper: arxiv.org/abs/2211.14293 project: kuis-ai.github.io/RbA/ code: github.com/NazirNayal8/RbA with Mısra Yavuz, João F. Henriques, F. Güney

Important: one of my very dear friends, Mohammed Alsaqqa, is raising funds to help evacuate his family from Gaza. Mohammed is not only a great friend, but also an exemplary person and one of the brightest people I know. The past few months have been hell on earth for him and his
