Building on the previous paper, in this study we compare a continuous “smooth return” S2>S1 model with an event-driven one, where long periods of relative calm are punctuated by short, intense episodes of global reorganisation. Both models cover the same time window. Neither uses archaeological data in its construction. When compared against where early humans and early civilizations actually appear and persist, the difference is statistically robust. The smooth model behaves like background noise. The event-driven model lines up in time and space far better than chance allows, even after aggressive temporal and spatial randomization tests. Statistically, the event-driven model lines up with where and when early civilizations appear far better than a smooth, continuous model, even after we randomize both timing and location to test what could arise by chance. The event timeline itself was built independently from well-known late-glacial disruptions - such as Heinrich events, meltwater pulses, and abrupt deglacial transitions - rather than from any archaeological data. Nothing here claims that specific events caused specific cultures. It does suggest that history may not unfold on a smooth clock. Human societies seem to flourish during recovery phases between disruptions, not during the disruptions themselves. The animation contrasts the two return models. Draft paper : Source & Results : (coming soon)

Posted a full preview of this in my discord, here's a snippet! This is the culmination of all the stuff I've been learning the last few months. There's a Daz3d model in there being driven by motion capture data, with a physics driven hair rig and some basic jiggle on the boobs.

We're releasing OVIE, a novel view generation model trained entirely on single images. No multi-view datasets needed. Given a single image, it generates novel views of any scene in real time, running orders of magnitude faster than competing approaches.

Saw a poster at ICLR showing contrastive learning (InfoNCE included!) ≈ a closed-form spectral decomposition in RKHS. Got curious whether a map could adapt embedding spaces across model families, while preserving NDCG retrieval perf. Did some experiments on my flights back to sf. Video shows diff maps on simple swiss roll data.

I built an iOS-style modal sheet with React Aria Components and Framer Motion! It uses gesture-driven animations to feel super smooth and natural on touch devices. It's a surprisingly small amount of code too. Check it out! 🤩

When parking, you can now see a high fidelity 3D representation of the world around your vehicle, including proximity & shape of nearby objects, barriers, vehicles & painted road markings By using a dedicated neural network to model obstacles & paint lines, we can accurately estimate distances & represent arbitrary shapes in a smooth & computationally efficient way

📢Announcing our 3D head avatar benchmark📢 Two tasks with hidden test sets: - Dynamic Novel View Synthesis on Heads - Monocular FLAME-driven Head Avatar Reconstruction Our goal is to make research on 3D head avatars more comparable and ultimately increase the realism of digital humans. The benchmark studies distinct phenomena of 3D head avatar creation, such as extreme facial expressions, slow motion captures of shaking long hair, or complicated light reflection and refraction patterns of glasses. The two benchmark tasks assess two core desiderata of 3D avatars: While the novel view synthesis challenge focuses on best possible rendering quality of complex moving scenes, the avatar animation challenge is concerned with how well a driving signal is translated into an avatar. Evaluations are light-weight and consist of diverse video recordings from the popular NeRSemble dataset with a hidden test set. Participation in the benchmark is therefore straight-forward and requires only 5 reconstructions per task. Leaderboard and benchmark submission: Benchmark data access and toolkit: Great work by Tobias Kirschstein Simon Giebenhain
