Wow! So much fun at the Community Engaged Learning workshop on artful expressions in research! I learned that it’s about the process, not the outcome… but I am still proud of my puffy sticker brain 🧠 💜 @UVicMedSciences @uvic

So much fun at @CCN_RCC this week! It’s always so impactful to have a combination of patient-advocates, researchers & clinicians come together to support concussion research! The highlight was for sure winning an elusive CCN hoodie 🤩 @ChristieNeuro @PowerofPatients

Taylor Snowden retweeted
Unsupervised Semantic Correspondence Using Stable Diffusion show that, without any training, one can leverage this semantic knowledge within diffusion models to find semantic correspondences -- locations in multiple images that have the same semantic meaning. Specifically, given an image, we optimize the prompt embeddings of these models for maximum attention on the regions of interest. These optimized embeddings capture semantic information about the location, which can then be transferred to another image. By doing so we obtain results on par with the strongly supervised state of the art on the PF-Willow dataset and significantly outperform (20.9% relative for the SPair-71k dataset) any existing weakly or unsupervised method on PF-Willow, CUB-200 and SPair-71k datasets paper page: huggingface.co/papers/2305.1…

It’s a….bird 🦅 It’s a….plane ✈️ No! It’s an unsupervised correspondence estimation method using stable diffusion comparing a bird and a plane! Congrats to my husband @IAmEricHedlin for his newest first author paper 🥳🤩 arxiv.org/abs/2305.15581
