TMLR's 2025 annual report! The word of the year is growth: whether it's our number of submissions, published papers, or reviewers, pretty much everything has increased ~50%.
EXCEPT: our review period, which is still shorter than NeurICMLR (91 vs 126 days)
Read on for more! 1/n
2025 was a blockbuster year for TMLR -- big growth from 2024, but also cementing our J2C partnership with NeurICMLR, and launching Beyond PDF.
Also, cutting the cord: with the founding EiCs completing their tenure, I am now the old guy 👴
Check out the annual report for more!

🥇 3 Best Paper Awards for AMLab members!
1. Towards Variational Flow Matching on General Geometries by @olgatticus.bsky.social et al.
2. Generative Uncertainty in Diffusion Models by @metodjazbec.bsky.social et al.
3. SDE Matching by @gbarto.bsky.social et al.
Congrats to everyone! 🔥
Nice work! We were ourselves also wondering why few approaches seem to consider conditional entropy as a function of time (beyond the time-warping in the work of @sedielem.bsky.social, as you note). Great to see that this can aid generation in other settings as well.

Just returned from an inspiring three weeks at AIMS (aims.ac.za) in Cape Town, where I taught Generative AI with @eijkelboomfloor.bsky.social.
I was really impressed with these students, who are engaged, very hard working, and asked some of the best questions that I have ever had in class!
Excellent work by @maxxxzdn
that uses ideas from computational physics to design scalable transformers!
We are hiring on the Generative Media team in London: boards.greenhouse.io/deepmind/job...
We work on Imagen, Veo, Lyria and all that good stuff. Come work with us! If you're interested, apply before Feb 28.
Variational Flow Matching goes Riemannian! 🔮
In this preliminary work, we derive a variational objective for probability flows 🌀 on manifolds with closed-form geodesics, and discuss some interesting results.

I think that a key difference here may be that RPG mechanics are generally less stochastic than the conference reviewing process.

Repost appreciated!
Really enjoyed this talk from Arnaud! It is so refreshing when a speaker focuses on providing a lucid overview of methods and their connections, past and present. Something to aspire to for all of us.

It's located near the west entrance to the west side of the conference center, on the first floor, in case that helps!
When a bunch of diffusers sit down and talk shop, their flow cannot be matched😎
It's time for the #NeurIPS2024 diffusion circle!
🕒Join us at 3PM on Friday December 13. We'll meet near this thing, and venture out from there and find a good spot to sit. Tell your friends!
If you're at #NeurIPS2024, join us this afternoon to talk diffusion, flows and all that jazz. Be there or be non-circular!
