A system built with just a few neurons, yet able to solve a complex task — not by stacking layers or going deeper, but by embracing unconventional thinking.
This is neuromorphic to me!

I'm extremely proud of this work, which shows how using the physics of analog electronic circuits helps us understand learning and computational principles of cortical neural networks and build efficient neural processing systems that can complement and outperform AI accelerators in edge computing!

The underlying structures of self-attention: symmetry, directionality, and emergent dynamics in Transformer training
Self-attention is essential to Transformer architectures, yet how information is embedded in the self-attention matrices and how different objective functions impact this process remains unclear. We p...

hey Bluesky world, I realized I didn't post anything here yet
I'll start with sharing a recent blog post on the workshop we organised at the last Bernstein Conference 2024. I hope you enjoy it 💃
Thank you @melikapayvand.bsky.social , Laura, and Ana for the feedback and suggestions 💜

It’s been a while since I last published something on my personal blog. Life has moved along in beautiful, unexpected ways, and I’ve experienced many absolutely lovely moments. On the professional side, I recently had the opportunity to organize a workshop at the Bernstein Conference in Frankfurt am Main (my lovely and chaotic Frankfurt <3). This workshop was brought to life thanks to the other incredible organizers, Laura Kriener and Melika Payvand, with their creativity, initiative, and vision. I feel grateful to be a part of this vibrant community. So, why not use this opportunity to write here again?
