So, what is #EurIPS anyway? 🤔

EurIPS is a community-driven conference taking place in Copenhagen Denmark endorsed by @neuripsconf.bsky.social and @nordicair.bsky.social and co-developed with @ellis.eu, where you can additionally present your NeurIPS papers.

In short, world-class research from NeurIPS accessible in Europe.

EurIPS takes place over 3 days + 2 workshop days, at the same time as NeurIPS in San Diego.

Follow this account for more updates, and see you in wonderful Copenhagen 📅

Humans largely learn language through speech. In contrast, most LLMs learn from pre-tokenized text.

In our #Interspeech2025 paper, we introduce AuriStream: a simple, causal model that learns phoneme, word & semantic information from speech.

Have you been using ABCD data? Are you measuring psychopathology with the CBCL? You will want to check out our latest preprint, led by @kanepav.bsky.social, which shows that the constructs measured by the tool fail to meet many basic validity tests. Peep the thread!
New pre-print from @alexfornito.bsky.social , Toby Constable, Jeggan Tiego, and myself, looking at the psychometric properties of the CBCL in the baseline ABCD cohort. We show that the commonly used CBCL structures fail to meet standards for validity and reliability

Out now in MAGMA, our contribution to the debate about harmonization vs. standardization of MRI measurements

We propose a 4-tier benchmark to assess the transparency of MRI workflows: (i) black box; (ii) gray box; (iii) frosted box; (iv) glass box

Which box is your workflow in? 1/3

“Everybody in math and physics uses it.”

Nearly 35 years ago, Paul Ginsparg created arXiv, a digital repository for sharing research. It changed science for good.

Three decades in, Ginsparg reflects on its legacy—and its future.

My lab has been working on comparing neural representations for the past few years - methods like RSA, CKA, CCA, Procrustes distance

We are often asked: What do these things tell us about the system's function? How do they relate to decoding?
