Openreview opened the door to continuous and major revisions that nobody has time to check properly.
I think that we should come back to short one pdf page replies to reviews. It would mean having decisions quicker so that we actually have time to work on papers before resubmitting them.

Simulation-Based Inference: A Practical Guide A central challenge in many areas of science and engineering is to identify model parameters that are consistent with prior knowledge and empirical data. Bayesian inference offers a principled framewo...

Simulation-based inference (SBI) has transformed parameter inference across a wide range of domains. To help practitioners get started and make the most of these methods, we joined forces with researchers from many institutions and wrote a practical guide to SBI.

Yesterday @tgnassou.bsky.social successfully defended his PhD thesis on domain adaptation of signals and in particular EEG. Huge congrats to him for all his work and his wonderful slides. It was a pleasure to be his advisor with @agramfort.bsky.social and I can't wait to see what he will do next!

🌀🌀🌀New paper on the generation phases of Flow Matching arxiv.org/abs/2510.24830
Are FM & diffusion models nothing else than denoisers at every noise level?
In theory yes, *if trained optimally*. But in practice, do all noise level equally matter?

Probably the best paper title of my career. To read with the Indiana jones soundtrack. And yes we solved and differentiated quite well 80 millions (small) Fused Gromov Wasserstein problems per epoch using a neural network on GPU.
