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 ...

Yesterday's #StableDiffusion prompt was: "Unseen Academicals".

The results were the most diverse and furthest away from anything to do with the original #DiscWorld title that I've gotten so far 🙂 But on the other hand, the prompt is rather abstract ...

I am reaching the end of the DiscWorld title list and it might be time to take a break from DiscWorld and try something else for a few days?

I was a bit slower to complete the reading of the papers today — a bit of a distracted day. But at the end, posted about 9 papers in the cs.CV category out of a total of 60 new (and updated) papers on arXiv.org today ...

"Self-Supervised Learning Through Efference Copies. (arXiv:2210.09224v2 [cs.LG] UPDATED)" — A paper which shows that the commonly used self-supervised learning approach of transforming each training datapoint into a pair of views, using the knowledge of this pairing as a positive (i.e. non-contrastive) self-supervisory sign, and potentially opposing it to unrelated, (i.e. contrastive) negative examples is an incomplete implementation of a concept from neuroscience, the Efference Copy (EC).

@at I just found the use of the word "olfactory" confusing in both those papers 🙂 OK, it was the use of "olfactory" in the title, which seemed to imply that the olfactory aspect was important. But the content of the paper didn't match up to that ... but maybe that's just my rushed reading?

@AngelaPreston Yep, it looks as if they are trying to detect objects which emit a smell, but using “olfactory” to describe that seems just …. wrong somehow 🙂

"Transfer Learning for Olfactory Object Detection. (arXiv:2301.09906v1 [cs.CV])" — An investigation of the effect of style and category similarity in multiple datasets used for object detection pretraining. The paper discusses using object recognition as a basis for the indirect recognition of more complex and meaningful "smell" references such as gestures and spaces.

Note: Similar to another paper, the word "olfactory" in the title confused me. Is "olfactory" being used in a slightly different context in machine learning?

"ODOR: The ICPR2022 ODeuropa Challenge on Olfactory Object Recognition. (arXiv:2301.09878v1 [cs.CV])" — The challenge aims to foster the development of object detection in the visual arts and to promote an olfactory perspective on digital heritage. It appears that they concentrate on smell-relevant objects rather than using smell to detect objects ...

Note: The use of the word "olfactory" is a bit confusing, in my opinion, in this paper and one other which came out today.

In the 2023/2024 academic year, we're launching a new Master's in Cognitive Science at the University of Rijeka. It's an interdisciplinary research-intensive course in English, pedagogically innovative, comparatively cheap (both for EU and non-EU students), accredited, and in beautiful Rijeka!

@DaNanner Well, Laurie’s currently QA but I’m sure we can expand the QA department 😛

I like that Tusker supports Akkoma out of the box (I had to add that to IceCubes but I’d been working with IceCubes code for a while to get it working on Akkoma and so that wasn’t a huge issue) but Tusker lacks edit functionality while IceCubes has it now …

Tusker has lists and hashtags support but doesn’t seem to pull any hashtags you follow now from anywhere (I haven’t looked at Akkoma API to see if this is possible though ..) while IceCubes has no support for those or even for filtering.

Tusker also has this nifty feature which combines all the boosts for a post in one notification that I haven’t seen anywhere else, but their CW feature seems a bit weird 😛

Source code for either is easy to work with and so I’ve punted the decision as to which one to go with to Laurie and am waiting …
