When life gives you a fish, you sail with it. 🐟⛵🤖 Our autonomous sailboat and robotic fish finally met on Lake Constance — and the footage did not disappoint. 🌊 Big thanks to @swarmdynamics.bsky.social , Hun Jang and Liang Li for making this happen. #robotics #swarm #autonomy #maritime

Thank you for raising this and pushing back. If resources are becoming a limiting factor, we should start exploring alternative ways of accepting papers, such as acceptance without a presentation.

NeurIPS has decided to do what ICLR did: As a SAC I received the message 👇 This is wrong! If the review process cannot handle so many papers, the conference needs yo split instead of arbitrarily rejecting 400 papers.

So… I have an idea! For those of us attending ICCV 2025 in Hawaii, I thought it would be very exciting and fun to collect an exotic dataset of tropical plants and animal species. I’m staying for vacations after the conference, and would like to combine it with the data collection. Who is joining?

New paper out in the lab on collective gaze following in pigeons in iScience! Coolest experimental design ever🤭

[2/3] This Friday, Prof Oliver Deussen (@uni-konstanz.de) is going to talk about how he and his team use VR technology to create a highly controlled environment, in which they research how different animals use visual inputs for movement decisions. More information in the announcement below 👇

Kullback–Leibler (KL) divergence is a cornerstone of machine learning. We use it everywhere, from training classifiers and distilling knowledge from models, to learning generative models and aligning LLMs. BUT, what does it mean, and how do we (actually) compute it? Video: youtu.be/tXE23653JrU

DUNE is a great universal image encoder which works for a large class of tasks and beats its teacher MASt3R on map free localization. #cvpr2025 We use it a lot already, I recommend it. (keynote @ Paris by @dlarlus.bsky.social )

Here's a recording of my 3DV keynote from a couple weeks ago. If you're already familiar with my research, I recommend skipping to ~22 minutes in where I get to the fun stuff (whether or not 3D has been bitter-lesson'ed by video generation models) www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFlF...

Currently, roughly 90–95% of AI usage in biodiversity and conservation research is simply identifying a species of interest in gobs of data, says @sarameghanbeery.bsky.social of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, co-founder of MegaDetector. But that promises to change swiftly.
