I have turned qualpal, which generates qualitative color palettes for categorical data, into a web app! It has support for multiple inputs, supports extending existing palettes, and provides analysis of the results. Please try it out at qualpal.cc! #qualpal #color-palettes #cpp #r #cli

New paper on the generalization of Flow Matching www.arxiv.org/abs/2506.03719 🤯 Why does flow matching generalize? Did you know that the flow matching target you're trying to learn *can only generate training points*? w @quentinbertrand.bsky.social @annegnx.bsky.social @remiemonet.bsky.social 👇👇👇

We want to thank Posit for their support! With Posit’s help, we were able to grow our team by one full time engineer, committed to make the Typst compiler even better ❤️

I had a blast giving a summer school on generative models at AI Hub Senegal, in particular flow matching, with @quentinbertrand.bsky.social and @remiemonet.bsky.social Our material is publicly available !!! github.com/QB3/SenHubIA... ensdelyon.bsky.social

Tired of manually submitting #rstats 📦 to CRAN? Check out my experimental #GitHubActions workflow that automates submissions when you create a pre-release! Especially helpful for packages with compiled code. Post: blog.thecoatlessprofessor.com/programming/... Code: github.com/coatless-r-n...

Finally a fast formatter for R!

R version 4.4.3 "Trophy Case" (source version) has been released. (You can find it in cran.r-project.org/src/base/R-4/, or wait for CRAN to be updated.) This coincides with as-close-as-we-can-get-to 25 years since the release of R 1.0.0. #rstats

Momentous occasion for mirai! After @hadley.nz merged the PR that makes mirai power parallel purrrr in the tidyverse a week or so ago, it's just been added as an official cluster type in base R (4.5) 😲. #rstats github.com/wch/r-source...

I like that he posted a picture of a print-out of the email.

Two particularly inspiring figures were present at the AI & Democracy event organized by Make.org yesterday: Svetlana Tikhanovskaïa, a leading opponent of dictator Lukashenko, and Audrey TANG, Taiwan’s cyber ambassador and former minister of digital affairs. The entire room was blown away.

I won an award for best PhD thesis in statistics in 2024 (in Sweden)! 🥳 (Link is in Swedish, but I've written about the thesis before here: jolars.co/blog/2024-05...) statistikframjandet.se/cramersallsk... #statistics
