Swing by to know how we reached state of the art performance in graph alignment without requiring embedding the graph first!
Excited to announce that FUGAL (Feature-fortified Unrestricted Graph Alignment) will be presented at @NeurIPSConf today! 📍 West Ballroom A-D, Booth #5900 🗓️ Dec 11th, 4:30 p.m. PST — 7:30 p.m. Let's chat if you're at NeurIPS! 💬 @VNSAditya2002 @DavideMottin #NeurIPS2024
This is insane and disrespectful. This publication pressure has to stop, knowledge advancement and profitable peer discussions are being completely disregarded.
The ARR (@ReviewAcl) discussion period is just 3 days and spans over the weekend -- seriously???
Working with Zhiqiang is an absolute pleasure. I learned a lot from him. Reach out to him if you are interested in his research about graph machine learning and applications to the biomedical domain!
🎉I am thrilled to announce that my project has been selected for the Young International Academics (#YIA) programme and received joint funding from the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (#MSCA) and the Institute for Advanced Studies (#IAS) at @uni_lu

OpenAI, Google and Anthropic Are Struggling to Build More Advanced AI “Three of the leading artificial intelligence companies are seeing diminishing returns from their costly efforts to develop newer models.” Scaling laws are breaking down economically. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
More bad news: this article says that we have already passed 1.5 degrees global warming. With climate change deniers taking power around the world, this bodes bad news for humanity. I guess we are not worthy. nos.nl/l/2543565
Being saying this for literally years, happy to see it properly studied!
🚨Is complex query answering really complex?🚨 unfortunately not! the current benchmarks boil down to link prediction 98% of the time... how to fix this??? 👇👇👇 📜arxiv.org/abs/2410.12537 with @c_gregucci @BoXiongs @loreloc_ @PMinervini @ststaab
We talk about AI, elections, war… remember that we could have ~15 years: “A 2-degree rise in global temperatures is considered a critical threshold above which dangerous and cascading effects of human-generated climate change will occur.” 👉irreversible👈 climate.nasa.gov/news/3278/nasa…
New SIGMOD blog post: "Where does database research go from here?" where I examine the academic database research community from the lens of market competition and ask " what is our competitive advantage?" wp.sigmod.org/?p=3801
🚀 Six research papers from the department are accepted at #NeurIPS2024 🎉 One was selected for an oral presentation – given to just 0.5% of submissions! 🙌 #MachineLearning #Research #NeurIPS
If you’re choosing a research group to join, pay just as much - if not more - attention to the culture and mentoring style in the group than the research. You can succeed in lots of research areas or projects, but it’s tough to succeed in an unsupportive environment.
If you are at #ACL2024 stop by our poster. @zhong_zhiqiang will tell you the amazing story of how to use #LLMs to correct classification errors!
Just arrived in Bangkok 🇹🇭 to present our work at ACL’2024! Can't wait to reunite with old friends and make new connections!
