🚨 #CCN2026 Proceedings submissions are open! CCN 2026 again features an 8-page Proceedings track (alongside extended abstracts). Accepted papers will appear in CCN-Proceedings (CCN‑P) with DOIs on OpenReview.

It is a great pleasure to host the Workshop in Advancements in High-Dimensional Methods for Machine Learning next week at Chalmers/GU! We have a great set of speakers, and I look forward to the talks and discussions! 🔗 chalmers.se/en/current/c...

Our paper just came out in PRX! Congrats to Nishil Patel and the rest of the team* TL;DR: We analyse policy learning through the lens of statphys, revealing distinct scaling regimes with sharp transitions. 🔗 journals.aps.org/prx/abstract... *Seb Lee @sebgoldt.bsky.social @saxelab.bsky.social

Less than 10 days to apply to the last edition of the Analytical Connectionism summer school! Deadline: April 18th 🚨 Apply here www.analytical-connectionism.net/school/2025/ Where? London, UK. When? Aug 25-Sep 5.

I really enjoyed working on this. What started as a reproducibility issue ended up revealing a more complex picture of mean-field dynamics than I originally thought, making me rethink the specialisation phenomenon. Soon at @iclr-conf.bsky.social! 🔗 openreview.net/forum?id=RQz...

Excited to meet for the first time and exchange ideas with fellow Nordic statistical physicists next week @NorditaSweden Workshop on StatPhys! I'll be presenting our research on ML bias through the lens of disordered systems. 🌐 indico.fysik.su.se/event/8942/

ML methods are an asset in analysing numerically glassy dynamics - a notoriously difficult physics problem. If you want to know more on recent results and future directions, check out our "Roadmap on machine learning glassy dynamics", just appeared on Nature Reviews www.nature.com/articles/s42...

Looking for a PhD in Cognitive Science, Cognitive Neuroscience or related in Germany? One week left to apply for the Max Planck School of Cognition: cognition.maxplanckschools.org/en/application #PsychSciSky #compneurosky #neuroskyence #NeuroAI #Neuroimaging

First post on 🦋! Next week, I’ll speak about Curriculum Learning at the workshop "At the Crossroads of AI and Cognitive Science". Join me if you are in the area! 🔗 www.chalmers.se/en/current/c...
