Really proud of this project led by @kylecranmer.bsky.social and created alongside these awesome collaborators and friends. I believe this is important work that will help researchers make grounded decisions when building multimodal models with many diverse inputs. Add it to your paper pile!
New paper, with @rkhashmani.me @marielpettee.bsky.social @garrettmerz.bsky.social Hellen Qu. We introduce a framework for generating realistic, highly multimodal datasets with explicitly calculable mutual information. This is helpful for studying self-supervised learning

Does a smaller latent space lead to worse generation in latent diffusion models? Not necessarily! We show that LDMs are extremely robust to a wide range of compression rates (10-1000x) in the context of physics emulation.

We got lost in latent space. Join us 👇

Some highlights from a really compelling overview talk by @lukasheinrich.com this morning at #ML4PS at @neuripsconf.bsky.social -- reflecting on the future of ML for physics, including the importance of multi-modality and when/how to impose our scientific intuitions onto our models.

Really looking forward to these!
The papers and posters for our Machine Learning and Physical Sciences workshop at #NeurIPS2024 are online #ml4ps2024. Come check it out on Sunday

🧵 Today with @polymathicai.bsky.social and others we're releasing two massive datasets that span dozens of fields - from bacterial growth to supernova!

We want this to enable multi-disciplinary foundation model research.
