Please add missing #Mastodon accounts of organisations, projects and persons to #Wikidata with the property P4033 (and a start date).

You can see all entries with this query
https://w.wiki/kV7
and you will find interesting accounts there.
Now we have 3323, let's go!

Thanks for your #retoot.

We should use #Wikidata identifiers instead of #hashtags. Would require client support to use localized labels for input and output #Q1167863

A book review by @suzan of

Pretrained Transformers for Text Ranking: BERT and Beyond by Jimmy Lin, Rodrigo Nogueira, and Andrew Yates

"This textbook
could be the ideal cross-over from IR knowledge to the NLP field, using our common
friend BERT as the bridge."

In case you haven't heard, at Hugging Face we are building wikipedia-like crowdsource documentation on machine learning tasks 📚 Every page has simply put information on implementing machine learning tasks and building your first proof-of-concept without diving deep into nitty gritty of maths of machine learning 🤩 https://huggingface.co/tasks

#Introduction

I am currently teamlead and part of the CTO Team at inovex in Karlsruhe, Germany. We are an IT services company, with a innovation and research focus.

Previously EML, Heidelberg and UKP Lab, TU Darmstadt

Interests: #nlproc, #ai, #appliedai, #recsys

More a curator, mentor, enabler - less a researcher. Also: Business Development, Sales, Marketing.

Fun fact: in addition to search for hashtags, you can go to a special sigmoid.social/tags/hashtag url to browse local posts with a given hashtags.

For instance:
https://sigmoid.social/tags/newpaper

We recommend Sigmoiders use #PaperThread , #NewPaper , #NLPProc, #CV , #RL , and other hashtags listed at https://sigmoid.social/about/more

@davidrevoy For those (like me) who are out of the loop: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/11/deviantart-upsets-artists-with-its-new-ai-art-generator-dreamup/.

TL;DR: DeviantArt created an art generator called DreamUp based on Stable Diffusion, and art uploaded by the site’s users will be used for training unless they opt out.

Great news #Fediverse it is Official. The #EU #EuropeanCommission just launched two servers 🚀

Welcome to #EUVoice mastodon and #EUVideo peertube 🎉

So say hi to @EC_Commission@social.network.europa.eu 👋

Love #FOSS with @EC_OSPO 💘

Stay in the loop with @EC_DIGIT ➿

Help make things fundamentally right with @FRA ☀️

Regain balance with @Curia ⚖️

Protect that data with @EDPS 🔐

Let's go global with @CDT 🌐

Get us heard at @ombudsman 📣

Summarizing this excellent systematic survey of 507 papers on the state of #KnowledgeGraph in #NLP since the first Internet-age #KG was announced 10 years ago:

Schneider et al. 2022. “A Decade of Knowledge Graphs in Natural Language Processing: A Survey.” https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.00105

1. Tasks surveyed are broadly divided into Knowledge Acquistion and Knowledge Application.

#PaperThread

The first international workshop on Legal Information Retrieval will be held at ECIR 2023, in Dublin, on April 2nd, 2023 #ECIR2023 #LegalIR

The call for papers (actually extended abstracts) is now available on https://tmr.liacs.nl/legalIR/

Deadline: January 20th, 2023

I don’t train from scratch, I use RoBERTa🧐
Wait…
Why not cross-encoder/stsb-roberta?facebook/muppet-roberta?

We automatically identify the best models on 🤗(periodically)

Just pick the best one
and finetune on your task

SigmoidS has exceeded 2k registered users!

Keep the trend going by letting your friends/colleagues know about what a cool place this is becoming for AI folks :) We'll keep scaling up the server compute as needed as more users join.

Since some have asked: you can support us monetarily by subscribing on Substack - https://thegradientpub.substack.com/

We are considering setting up a separate Patreon just for Sigmoid Social, but for now feel free to help us out that way if you'd like :D

#Introduction I am hoping to join a welcoming and diverse community here. What I liked about Twitter was the convos about ML, the new papers, ideas, and feeling connected to other researchers across the globe. Looking forward to rebuilding this on an open platform without the volatile billionaire bit.

I’m a professor of CS and will occasionally post something about geometric (graph) deep learning, attempts to bridge discrete and continuous learning, and applications in the sciences.

Time for an #introduction:

I am a researcher at Google Brain 🧠 in Amsterdam 🚲, working primarily on structured approaches to ML/AI: graph representation learning / GNNs, structured / geometric scene representations & world models, object-centric learning & compositionality.

You probably won't see me toot/tweet very often, but when I do, it will mostly be about research that excites me and the occasional toot about car-free / livable cities.

Thank you, @thegradient for setting up this server!
