So @iclr_conf poster sizes and local printing does not align :( (Max ICLR: H 91 x W 183 cm / H 36 x W 72 in Max printing: 91cm x 160cm or 36in x 64in) Could be good to add a warning to the ICLR poster sizes that the maximum cannot use local printing.
Are there any rigorous evaluations of maximizing entropy vs maximizing causal entropy in RL in recent papers? (Ie per step action distribution vs accumulated across trajectories)

Quantity over quality is really a problem of the system rather than the individual grad student. Expected number of accepted papers grows with the number of submissions - with minimal side effects. What are other fields doing to prevent this?

Hello, electric Atlas. Pics, video, details, and a Q&A with @BostonDynamics CEO Robert Playter spectrum.ieee.org/atlas-humanoid…
Introducing 𝐀𝐋𝐎𝐇𝐀 𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 🌋 - Pushing the boundaries of dexterity with low-cost robots and AI. @GoogleDeepMind Finally got to share some videos after a few months. Robots are fully autonomous filmed in one continuous shot. Enjoy!
For the past year we've been working on ALOHA Unleashed 🌋 @GoogleDeepMind - pushing the scale and dexterity of tasks on our ALOHA 2 fleet. Here is a thread with some of the coolest videos! The first task is hanging a shirt on a hanger (autonomous 1x)
Atlas is retiring @BostonDynamics! You're going to be missed! An absolute engineering marvel which paved the way for all current humanoid companies and much of our research! youtu.be/KSvLcr5HtNc?si… youtu.be/-9EM5_VFlt8
Researchers at @GoogleDeepMind used deep reinforcement learning to train humanoid bipedal robots to play agile one-on-one soccer with each other. Read more in @SciRobotics: scim.ag/6Bb

True they need to prove reliability, but Tesla is in a class or its own in understanding reliability relative to the rest of the humanoid field. (That said, there's a history of over optimism, so I wouldn't expect that prediction's accurate.)
Forbes asked me about Tesla’s claim they’ll sell humanoid robots to customers next year. My take: The only useful robot is a reliable robot. For humanoids to be ready for real work we can’t just be impressed by them, we need to be able to count on them. forbes.com/sites/robertha…

Fascinating! MAML to make LLMs NOT learn fast. If true/robust, it could really help with AI safety. Also, great name! "Results verify that fine-tuning SOPHON-protected models incurs an overhead comparable to or even greater than training from scratch." arxiv.org/pdf/2404.12699
I'm really excited about this new work from @jmes_harrison @jwilles_. Quite good uncertainty without much overhead by integrating out the last layer using variational inference.
Want a really simple (and cheap!) way to improve neural net calibration and get practical epistemic uncertainty estimates? At ICLR this year: Variational Bayesian Last Layers Try it out: 1. pip install vbll 2. a couple one line changes to your current training pipeline 🧵
So you want to do robotics tasks requiring dynamics information in the real world, but you don’t want the pain of real-world RL? In our work to be presented as an oral at ICLR 2024, @memmelma showed how we can do this via a real-to-sim-to-real policy learning approach. A 🧵 (1/7)

@m_wulfmeier The trade-off between quality and quantity of scientific research production can, to some degree, be impacted by setting the proper incentives for system actors (mostly authors). We found this by modeling the scholarly publishing system here: medvet.inginf.units.it/publications/2…
