Come visit Daniel Augusto at poster 2019

we need less crappy journals and more high quality conferences

We're hosting the Tropical ProbAI school FGV Jan 29-Feb 2, in Rio de Janeiro. Good news: applications are still open. This year, we'll have lectures & talks from the exceptional Vikash Mansinghka Diane Bouchacourt Adèle Ribeiro @HelgeLangseth Zenna Tavares + more tropical.probabilistic.ai

📢 Early bird call: Soon to open is an exciting opportunity for PhD research 🎓 in the CS dept Computer Science @ The University of Manchester ✨ U of Manchester The University of Manchester 👌 supervised by me and Samuel Kaski. To work at the forefront of statistical theory and methods for distribution shifts 🤓 DM me for enquiring!

I am looking for a post-doc to work with me on ML in Rio. Possible topics include generative models, geometric deep learning, probabilistic methods, federated ML, privacy-preserving ML, etc. Salary ~10kBRL. E-mail/msg me if interested.

GNN-based link prediction is typically miscalibrated. Read our preprint for further discussion on the issue and the first calibration method explicitly designed for the task. Amauri Souza Samuel Kaski arxiv.org/abs/2403.04605

Build what you need and use what you build. This is a core philosophy of my research. It shifts the focus away from publishing “papers” to what really matters — impact. This thread unpacks why I think this is a successful approach to science. 1/10 Or see: perceiving-systems.blog/en/post/build-…

ML Twitter seems excessively confrontational these last few days

Our work at #ICML2024 enables one-shot Bayesian federated/parallel inference over discrete spaces (e.g., graphs). In Willie Neiswanger's embarrassingly style, we use Emmanuel Bengio 's GFlowNets to learn local posteriors and combine them using our *aggregating balance condition*.

PhD student watching the PI present a technically impossible solution to a collaborator

Paper X (under review) and Y (published) have at least a common author. X openly states results from Y are misleading and cannot be reproduced. Is this ok?

I am looking for highly motivated post-docs to work on fundamental AI research. Pay is competitive (>=) compared to any Brazilian institution. Solid math/stats/theoretical CS background greatly appreciated. Instructions on my personal page.

The 41st Conference on #Uncertainty in #AI will be held in Rio de Janeiro 🇧🇷, July 21-25! The CfP is out 👉auai.org/uai2025/call_f… 🚨 Feb 10: Paper submission 🗣️ Apr 3-10: rebuttal period 🎉/💀 May 6: Author notification #UAI2025 #ML #stats #learning #reasoning #uncertainty

Come visit us. Work beatifully led by Tiago da Silva, who will soon defend his PhD.

The #UAI2025 Call for Workshops is out - deadline Feb 28th! If you have an idea for a workshop on #uncertainty #AI #statsML #impreciseprobabilities #causality etc consider submitting a 2 page proposal Accepted workshops will be held on July 25 in Rio 🇧🇷 auai.org/uai2025/call_f…

For our "Automated Assessment of Teaching Quality" project, we are looking for two PhD students: one in educational/cognitive sciences or a related field (uni-tuebingen.de/fakultaeten/wi…) and one in machine learning (uni-tuebingen.de/en/faculties/f…). Please apply and reach me out for details!
