Blows my mind that our POLYBOT made it into the opening of #COP27 🤯
Yeah! Our work on an intelligent #robot for #sustainable #farming (POLYBOT) made it into the opening of #COP27 World Leader Summit in the talk of @VeronikaEyring. Interested in bold climate tech solutions? Talk to me or @clmich at #COP27 or DM us.@Cyber_Valley @MPI_IS @ml4science

In 2015, ResNets reportedly surpassed human-level performance on #ImageNet. However, a large generalisation gap remained. Which of today’s exciting directions will close the gap: Vision transformers? CLIP? Self-supervised learning? Bigger datasets? Adversarial training? [1/N]

I‘m struck that it still hasn’t sunk in how much #b117 may change the course of this pandemic. The initial shock about it being more transmissible seems to have worn off. But we are barely beginning to see its real-world impact. A story: sciencemag.org/news/2021/02/… And a thread

love this intro 😂
More classes is all you need for one-shot object detection. It turns out we can almost close the gap between the detection of known and novel objects simply by increasing the number of categories. arxiv.org/abs/2011.04267 @clmich @alxecker @MatthiasBethge [1/7]

A bit late to the party but the « Shortcut Learning » paper by R. Geirhos @jh_jacobsen @clmich R. Zemel @wielandbr, @MatthiasBethge & F. Wichmann was a really enjoyable read! A nice overview connecting NNet failures, OOD robustness, fairness, bias Here: arxiv.org/abs/2004.07780

Check out our new paper Flexible Few-Shot Learning -- the same object can belong to different classes depending on context. We found unsupervised representation is better than supervised. A short version at NeurIPS metalearn workshop today at 10 EST. arxiv.org/abs/2012.05895

Introducing the embedding space you didn't know you needed: Human similarity judgments for the entire ImageNet (50k images) validation set. Perfect for evaluating representations, including unsupervised models. It's already bearing fruit, w @BDRoads arxiv.org/abs/2011.11015 (1/3)

A close look at what happens when deep learning fails reveals an effect of ‘shortcut learning’. Recognizing that this may be a common characteristic of learning systems, artificial and biological, may help making deep learning more robust. Read the paper: go.nature.com/3lr0GwU

Results generally look good even in complex or crowded scenes. While some problems like the high false positive rate (right column) remain, we are confident that our insights will make solving these issues easier as well. [6/7]

We hope that our findings will also benefit other areas of machine learning as they suggest that we can achieve human-like generalization capabilities by focusing on wide datasest with diverse categories. [7/7]
