I'm a bit of an eclectic mess 🙂 I've been a programmer, journalist, editor, TV producer, and a few other things.

I'm currently working on my second novel which is complete, but is in the edit stage. I wrote my first novel over 20 years ago but then didn't write much till now.

I post about #Coding, #Flutter, #Writing, #Movies and #TV. I'll also talk about #Technology, #Gadgets, #MachineLearning, #DeepLearning and a few other things as the fancy strikes ...

Added a couple of extra filtering options to the home timeline in Tusker and suddenly the timeline is that much more manageable 😃

It's , and I have a story I really wanna share:

In 1691 an 80-something Livonian man named Old Thiess was called to court as a witness in a theft case. As he was sworn in, another witness laughed: "How can he swear a holy oath when everyone knows he is a werewolf?"

The judges immediately forgot about the thief and put Old Thiess on trial. He calmly admitted that yes, indeed he was a werewolf.

Today turned out to be a light day for paper reading — only 7 papers in the cs.CV category, and 3 from other categories on arXiv posted.

But hey, the weekend is almost here 😛

"Bayesian Metric Learning for Uncertainty Quantification in Image Retrieval. (arXiv:2302.01332v1 [cs.LG])" — A Bayesian encoder for metric learning which, rather than relying on neural amortization as done in prior works, learns a distribution over the network weights with the Laplace Approximation.

"Disentanglement of Latent Representations via Sparse Causal Interventions. (arXiv:2302.00869v1 [cs.LG])" — A new method for disentanglement inspired by causal dynamics that combines causality theory with vector-quantized variational autoencoders where the model considers the quantized vectors as causal variables and links them in a causal graph.
