Fatih Dinc

We’re excited to kick off this year’s REAL AI Seminar Series! 🤖✨

Thrilled to start with @fatihdinc.bsky.social , thanks for joining us to launch the series.

Dr. Fatih Dinc gave a wonderful talk on biological versus artificial neural networks 🤯 @ucsbece.bsky.social @geometric-intel.bsky.social

Love to see it from @fatihdinc.bsky.social 😼🐼

Looking forward to seeing future talks from @ai-ucsb.bsky.social @ucsbece.bsky.social

Our illustrated guide to non-Euclidian ML is finally published!
Check it out for
⭐️ gorgeous figures (with new additions!) on topology, algebra, and geometry in the field
⭐️ broken down tables for easy reading
⭐️ accessible text, additional refs, and more

Visiting Wisconsin-Madison this week to attend #SIAMAG25. Would love to connect with fellow researchers, say hi if you are around!

Wow! What a great perspective! Congrats @ninamiolane.bsky.social !

Multi-timescale reinforcement learning in the brain - Nature Individual dopaminergic neurons encode future rewards over distinct temporal horizons.

Two papers out today on RL in the dopaminergic neurons of the midbrain of mice (one from McGill's new PI @paulmasset.bsky.social). Both papers demonstrate heterogeneity in discount factors!

🚨Higher-order combinatorial models in TDL are notoriously slow and resource-hungry. Can we do better?

Research Scholarship for Critical Thinkers

Here is the correct link: bridgetoturkiye.org/our-work/sch...

Announcement of a new scholarship program for Turkish students seeking internships in the US!

BTF is now officially accepting funding applications: bridgetoturkiye.org/our-work/schol…

The program requires you to apply with a mentor, who can be a PhD or a postdoc in a US institution.

How does AI memorize information? How does ChatGPT remember your name? How do RNNs keep track of simple numbers?

Our new paper led by Bariscan Kurtkaya & Fatih Dinc explores the geometry of short-term memory in neural networks—revealing limits in how information is stored!🧵

My PhD work is now out! Here, we set out to formalize the neural manifold hypothesis and explain several experimental phenomena in systems neuroscience with a single theoretical framework. I highly recommend giving it a read, though tweetprint come much later!
