#Introduction
Hi, I'm Lucas, a Belgian researcher at Google Brain in the beautiful Zürich. On twitter, I'm known as @giffmana.

I don't think Elon taking over Twitter is the end of the world, but I do like @sirbayes "JMLR moment" take of what's happening and wish to support it.

I post a mix of paper summary threads, hot takes, and shitposts; my main goals are to be entertaining and informative, in that order.

Cheers! 🍻

A quick note of something that may be important for people to know: I already noted that DMs here are a bit sketchy security wise, but (THIS IS THE IMPORTANT BIT): if you mention someone else's account in a DM, Mastodon, yoinks them into the conversation.

So, you know, if you think you're talking about someone behind their back, you might be doing it to their face.

I have encountered more image descriptions on Mastodon in 24 hours than I have in Twitter in a couple of years. Seriously. I'm not exaggerating.
As a blind person, this means a lot to me. If you read this and you describe your images, thank you so, so, so much on behalf of all of us. If you don't, now you know you'll be helping random Internet strangers make sense of your posts by typing in a few more words than usual.

Hello world, again! Since introductions are a thing...

I'm Oliver - I do computer vision and robotics for agriculture, 3D reconstruction and recognition of plant structure.

Also generally computer graphics in general, functional programming.

Also rock climbing, biking and running depending on what I'm into at any point in time.

#introduction

I'm Martin (he/him), a junior research group leader at TU Darmstadt & hessian.AI .

My Open World Lifelong Learning group focuses on research to make AI+ML systems learn continually in a world that keeps changing: https://owll-lab.com .
We adopt a broad view: from data to models, from learning to evaluation.

I'm also a board member at the non-profit ContinualAI https://www.continualai.org , love interdisciplinary research & care deeply about DEI in AI, as a member of QueerInAI 🏳️‍🌈

#Introduction

Hi! I am a CS PhD student at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. I am broadly interested in learning based #robotics to solve problems in #agriculture.

Currently I am working on vision-based navigation of under-canopy agricultural robots (https://ansivakumar.github.io/learned-visual-navigation/). These small robots could enable various precision agriculture applications like autonomous cover crop planting, mechanical weeding etc in an affordable way.

#agrobotics #fieldrobotics #robotsinthewild

Reasonable folks ask, “Why don’t we have robots to do X?” where X is something like clean the dishes off the table, or dust the cluttered living room shelves, or clean the fridge. The gap between the brass tacks answers to these questions and what most robotics research focuses on is astronomical. It often feels like the immediate blockers are all someone else’s problem to solve.

#robotics

Hello everyone! I am a #PhD student in #CS at #UCL. I am interested in #AI and #ML. I am also interested in #mathematics and #statistics!

More specifically, I am into #graph neural networks and PAC-Bayes. I am also curious about geometric deep learning, probabilistic modelling, #Bayesian inference and interpretable models.

I'm really looking forward to meeting new people here!

Who am I, and why am I here? #introduction

I am a machine learning researcher, using tools from #Bayes, #stats, #optimization, #informationgeometry, #deeplearning, signal processing, etc.

I care deeply about people, their well-being, inclusion, diversity, equity, privacy, and justice.

I believe in slow and rigorous scientific process, to add value to existing knowledge, and improve positive impact on society.

I am here to learn about all of these.
