The title of Tencent's paper [0] as well as their homepage for the model [1] each use the term "Open-Source" in the title, so I think they are making the claim. [0] https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.02265 [1]

You can also construct multiple hypothesis trackers from multiple Kalman Filters, but there is a little more machinery. For example, Interacting Multiple Models (IMM) trackers may use Kalman Filters or Particle Filters, and a lot of the fo

The Kalman filter has a family of generalizations in the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) and Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF.) Also common in robotics applications is the Particle Filter, which uses a Monte Carlo approximation of the uncertainty

I don't think anyone in this thread knows what happened, but since we're in a thread speculating why the CEO of the leading AI company was suddenly sacked, the possibility of an unacceptable interpersonal scandal isn't any mo

Correct, the article places UHZ1 at 13.2 billion light-years away, so roughly ~500 Gy into our 13.7-billion-year-old universe.

From Sections 3 and 4 of the VQGAN paper[1] upon this work is built: "To generate images in the megapixel regime, we ... have to work patch-wise and crop images to restrict the length of [the quantized encoding vector] s to a maximally

Transformers are not forced to use a specific input (or output) shape; the original ViT paper demonstrates interpolating positional embeddings to inference with arbitrary image shapes.

by dplavery92 3y ago
Presumably a transformer model or similar that uses positional encodings for the tokens could do that, but the U-Net decoder here uses a fixed-shape output and learns relationships between tokens (and sizes of image features) based on the p

Eh, it's a little tricky. A lot of research marketed under the "AI" umbrella would be categorized under cs.LG ( https://arxiv.org/list/cs.LG/recent ), cs.CV ( https://arxiv.org/list&#x

Sure, but when one 12gb GPU costs ~$800 new (e.g. for the 3080 LHR), "a couple of dozens" of them is a big barrier to entry to the hobbyist, student, or freelancer. And cloud computing offers an alternative route, but, as stated,

NNs are potentially very powerful arbitrary function approximators, but you have very limited control (or, arguably, insight) into the precise nature of the solutions their optimization arrives at. Because of that, they've been especi

Be that as it may, a number of positions at LLNL, including many of those affiliated with NIF, require that candidate is a US person and is eligible for a DOE security clearance. A security clearance is not necessarily binary on being a US

This is not quite correct. LLNL is a Federally Funded Research & Development Center (FFRDC) which is owned, as a facility, by the government, but managed and staffed by a non-profit contracting organization called Lawrence Livermore Nat

For what it's worth, I'm also very bad at plotting graphs with any kind of accuracy, which is why I use plotting software instead of doing it by hand. I get the feeling that my visual system and the language I use are respectively

In the unCLIP/DALL-E 2 paper[0], they train the encoder/decoder with 650M/250M images respectively. The decoder alone has 3.5B parameters, and the combined priors with the encoder/decoder are the in the neighborhood of

It seems unlikely in that situation that the Pentagon would declassify any of the instrument videos. Then again, it's weird that they've done that in any scenario.
