Fair play to him, not sure I’d have the balls to do it if I suffered with one.
Watford’s Ken Sema suffers with a stutter, but he bravely came out and did the post-match interview last night... ❤️ This will really help a lot of people. Anyone who suffers with a stammer knows how hard and deflating it can be. Brilliant @Semaken! 👏

I knew there was a reason I didn't go to the gym :D
The average gym dumbbell has 362 times more bacteria than a toilet seat.
There will be a full-day workshop on deep learning for tabular data at #NeurIPS2022 this year! 🙌 To prepare for the panel, I also just found 4 new papers to review; will add to the list below 📚! It'll be fun! (the event is on Dec 2, 2022; more info: table-representation-learnin…)

NEW DEMO! Exploring the "length" dimension in the latent space of a language model ✨ By scrubbing up/down across the text, I'm moving this sentence up and down a direction in the embedding space corresponding to text length — producing summaries w/ precise length control (1/n)

This week's update to the tabular list features (surprise, surprise) 💫diffusion models💫! "TabDDPM: Modeling Tabular Data with Diffusion Models" arxiv.org/abs/2209.15421 Why is this useful & interesting? 1) Imbalanced data and oversampling; 2) Privacy. How it works? 👇 1/13
