📢 I'm happy to share that I'll be joining @stonybrooku as an Assistant Professor in CS this Fall. I will start the Photon Intelligence Lab, developing physics-aware AI that sees what we cannot – by bridging optics, graphics, and vision. Come join us! DM or meet me @ CVPR 🧵👇

Navigating the Latent Space Dynamics of Neural Models

Friday night thought over a 🍺 : This is an extremely important read. In medicine we want prediction, not classification. Beware of bad biomarker work that seeks to classify treatment decisions, rather than predict here HT @f2harrell fharrell.com/post/classific…

People become so attached to the difficult things they learned that they won't ditch them for simpler ones.

Why is it so hard to show that people can be better decision-makers than statistical models? Some ways that common intuitions about the superiority of human judgment contradict statistical reality, and a few that don't. statmodeling.stat.columbia.edu/2025/04/18/dum…

Announcing our new preprint: "Regression Conformal Prediction under Bias"! 📊arxiv.org/abs/2410.05263 We prove that conventional CP methods may struggle to maintain their tightness when predictions are biased and suggest strategies to mitigate these effects. #ConformalPrediction

Paper: "Safetywashing: Do AI Safety Benchmarks Actually Measure Safety Progress?" The most extensive meta-analysis of AI safety benchmarks to date, examining their correlation with general model capabilities. Implications for how AI safety should be measured: 👇🧵1/11

To the colleagues and friends who find our paper overwhelming, and instead prefer to write and read more manageable papers with more focused messages: I respect your perspective and your approach to science greatly, and find it invaluable, of course. Both broad and focused…

Good afternoon! Just landed at Disney. Looking forward to discussing lots of topics ranging from uncertainty to imaging to biosensing @IEEEembs #EMBC2024. I’m also an invited speaker at the mini-symposium “Recent Advances in Cuffless BP Measurement” on Thursday. Stay tuned!
