"ITstyler: Image-optimized Text-based Style Transfer. (arXiv:2301.10916v1 [cs.CV])" — A data-efficient text-based style transfer method that does not require optimization at the inference stage where the text input is converted to the style space of the pre-trained VGG network to realize a more effective style swap.

"Distilling Cognitive Backdoor Patterns within an Image. (arXiv:2301.10908v1 [cs.LG])" — A simple method to distill and detect backdoor patterns within an image by extracting the "minimal essence" from an input image responsible for the model's prediction.

I told a friend that her skin looked fabulous. She said “thanks, I grew it myself.“ This is exactly the kind of person I strive diligently to keep around me.

It’s a beautiful daily routine tiptoeing down to the #pond to supplement the native frog #tadpoles’ diet in the early mornings.

Luckily, the everyday #harvest of fresh #greens for lunch includes their favorite (baby spinach). Many other greens are growing, but regular hand picking allows spells for regrowth, and we only plant what will actually grow in this environment. Some are volunteers. Today’s harvest in midsummer coastal #Australia includes:

Spinach, silver beet, kale, rocket, cress, sorrel, Asian greens, spring onion, basil, parsley, sage, rosemary, thyme, coriander, mint, nasturtium, leek, green beans, tomato, capsicum, baby eggplant, radish, edible flowers, together with a handful of wild greens grown mostly to attract beneficial insects with their flowers.

Orchard #Swallowtail caterpillars have appeared on the citrus, to increase the neighborhood butterfly population.

I’m extremely pleased with Tusker so far. I can’t come up with specifics as to why it’s such a great experience, but after having tried multiple Mastodon clients (on macOS, web, and iOS) this is the first one that I’m so happy with.

I’ve done some tweaks to the UI so far and there is a bunch of other things that I (or the wife) want tweaked, but even without the pending tweaks, I’m happier with the overall experience of Tusker than I’ve been with any of the other clients I’ve tried 🙂

I just need to get some of these issues fixed (like not being able to use the emoji picker in the post editor) and I’ll be golden!

This is a dabble in making faux kraft-tone prints! I had a sketch of Spock that I wanted to enhance with this brush kit, and with the layer settings I can replicate the vintage process for prints as well. Let me know what you think, as I foresee some wonderful artwork in this style coming soon!

My wife decided to learn #Python and, with absolute deadpan seriousness, refers to curly brackets exclusively as "squirrelly brackets".

Not only do I not correct her, I have now adopted this term as canonical.

Would love to hear what you think!

Happy weekend & happy learning!

@mrcippy @davemark I believe you can report them to the admins of the server they are on and if the admins don’t take action, report the server to your server admin so that (possibly) that server can be blocked …

But personally, I just block the person and move on. There’s only so much time available to do stuff 😛

@film_girl Thanks for this 🙂 I’ve been known to trawl GitHub looking for Mastodon related projects … and yet there are some here that I’ve not found before.

Unfortunately, the client I like the best at the moment is not on GitHub. So can’t suggest that for the list.

@Akki Funnily enough, that song’s been going through my head (in various weird incarnations) for the last couple of days. I think it started with us watching “Fisherman’s Friends: One and All” but I could be wrong …

By way of #introduction, I'm a software engineer specializing in #MachineLearning platform + infrastructure. I currently work at Spotify. I also worked at the bird factory for a time.

Outside of work, I like cooking, liquor, gaming, literature, and language (current focus: Japanese).

Alright, time for an #introduction post!

I'm Shannon, and I'm part of the #twittermigration 🐦 ➡️ 🐘

Because of my interests in #programming, #devops, and #selfhosting--with just a dash of masochism!--I elected to set up my own Mastodon instance!

When I'm not spinning up servers to axe my free time, I'm a professor studying #ComputationalBiology, at the intersection of #CellularBiology + #MachineLearning + #Bioimaging.

I run, read, tinker, and spend time with my better half @write2run and Z ❤️

Cute Happy Mastodons
Just because ☺️

#ThrowbackThursday // Hiking the distinctive jagged peaks of the #TombstoneMountains way up north in #Canada's #YukonTerritory was an experience I'll never forget.

Along with 4 of my best mates we hiked the wild, desolate, alpine meadows and loose, rocky slopes of the peaks surrounding #GrizzlyLake, always in the shadow of the dominating form of Mt. Tombstone.

Card Sharks.
Random weird work I created during 2020 when we weren’t going anywhere.
