The Ariel team at NeurIPS conference 2024! 😊

Tomorrow, at #NeurIPS2024, don't miss the session on the "Ariel Data Challenge 2024: Extracting exoplanetary signals from the Ariel Space Telescope". neurips.cc/virtual/2024... Meet the winners of the Kaggle competition, and find out the role ML will play in the @arieltelescope.bsky.social

🚀 Skada v0.4.0 is out! Skada is an open-source Python library built for domain adaptation (DA), helping machine learning models to adapt to distribution shifts. Github: github.com/scikit-adapt... Doc: scikit-adaptation.github.io DOI: doi.org/10.5281/zeno... Installation: `pip install skada`

Proud to announce our NeurIPS spotlight, which was in the works for over a year now :) We dig into why decomposing aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty is hard, and what this means for the future of uncertainty quantification. 📖 arxiv.org/abs/2402.19460 🧵1/10

Welcome to Bluesky @arieltelescope.bsky.social ! 👋 That was a great consortium meeting. Happy to have been able to help with the local organization.

I recently shared some of my reflections on how to use probabilistic classifiers for optimal decision-making under uncertainty at @pydataparis.bsky.social 2024. Here is the recording of the presentation: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gYn...

Join us for the first #ESA Datalabs Hackathon. Develop #MachineLearning models to study #Exoplanets, for the #ArielTelescope! 📍 Where: European Space Astronomy Centre (ESA-ESAC), near Madrid 🇪🇸 📅 When: 16-17 January 2025 👉 Register by 15 December 2024: www.ariel-datachallenge.space/esa-datalabs...

Crazy interesting paper in many ways: 1) Voice-enabled GPT-4o conducted 2 hour interviews of 1,052 people 2) GPT-4o agents were given the transcripts & prompted to simulate the people 3) The agents were given surveys & tasks. They achieved 85% accuracy in simulating interviewees real answers!

This is one really big area of @ec-euclid.bsky.social Legacy Science that absolutely needs human eyes. The very best machine learning gravitational lens finders make lens-candidate lists that are just 10% pure, ie 1 lens comes with 9 false positives. We need your 👀! 🔭🧪 bsky.app/profile/elsa...
