Unfortunately, our submission to #NeurIPS didn’t go through with (5,4,4,3). But because I think it’s an excellent paper, I decided to share it anyway.

We show how to efficiently apply Bayesian learning in VLMs, improve calibration, and do active learning. Cool stuff!

Post-hoc Probabilistic Vision-Language Models
Vision-language models (VLMs), such as CLIP and SigLIP, have found remarkable success in classification, retrieval, and generative tasks. For this, VLMs deterministically map images and text descripti...

🎉 Presenting “Streamlining Prediction in Bayesian Deep Learning” at #ICLR2025!
We replace MC estimation with local linearisation + Gaussian approximations → analytic posterior predictive in one forward pass. Fast, performs well, and scales to ViT.

Streamlining Prediction in Bayesian Deep Learning
The rising interest in Bayesian deep learning (BDL) has led to a plethora of methods for estimating the posterior distribution. However, efficient computation of inferences, such as predictions, has b...

Now that we put the camera-ready version on ArXiv, I will write a bit about this cool project.

Come check our presentation and paper!
Are you going to be at #WACV and want to know if “Flatness Improves Backbone Generalisation in Few-shot Classification”?

Then join the oral presentation by @ruili-pml.bsky.social of our paper!

check our posters at BDU workshop!
I will present ✌️ BDU workshop papers @ NeurIPS: one by Rui Li (looking for internships) and one by Anton Baumann.
