Vision-language models for decoding provider attention during neonatal resuscitation

no code implementations1 Apr 2024 Felipe Parodi, Jordan Matelsky, Alejandra Regla-Vargas, Elizabeth Foglia, Charis Lim, Danielle Weinberg, Konrad Kording, Heidi Herrick, Michael Platt

Neonatal resuscitations demand an exceptional level of attentiveness from providers, who must process multiple streams of information simultaneously.

The neuroconnectionist research programme

no code implementations8 Sep 2022 Adrien Doerig, Rowan Sommers, Katja Seeliger, Blake Richards, Jenann Ismael, Grace Lindsay, Konrad Kording, Talia Konkle, Marcel A. J. van Gerven, Nikolaus Kriegeskorte, Tim C. Kietzmann

Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) inspired by biology are beginning to be widely used to model behavioral and neural data, an approach we call neuroconnectionism.

MoVi: A large multi-purpose human motion and video dataset

1 code implementation PLOS ONE 2021 Saeed Ghorbani, Kimia Mahdaviani, Anne Thaler, Konrad Kording, Douglas James Cook, Gunnar Blohm, Nikolaus F. Troje

Large high-quality datasets of human body shape and kinematics lay the foundation for modelling and simulation approaches in computer vision, computer graphics, and biomechanics.

A critical reappraisal of predicting suicidal ideation using fMRI

1 code implementation10 Mar 2021 Timothy Verstynen, Konrad Kording

For many psychiatric disorders, neuroimaging offers a potential for revolutionizing diagnosis, and potentially treatment, by providing access to preverbal mental processes.

A Philosophical Understanding of Representation for Neuroscience

no code implementations12 Feb 2021 Ben Baker, Benjamin Lansdell, Konrad Kording

The reasons to call some neural activity a representation and the assumptions that come with this term are not generally made clear from its common uses in neuroscience.

MoVi: A Large Multipurpose Motion and Video Dataset

1 code implementation4 Mar 2020 Saeed Ghorbani, Kimia Mahdaviani, Anne Thaler, Konrad Kording, Douglas James Cook, Gunnar Blohm, Nikolaus F. Troje

In five capture rounds, the same actors and movements were recorded using different hardware systems, including an optical motion capture system, video cameras, and inertial measurement units (IMU).

End-to-end Training of CNN-CRF via Differentiable Dual-Decomposition

1 code implementation6 Dec 2019 Shaofei Wang, Vishnu Lokhande, Maneesh Singh, Konrad Kording, Julian Yarkony

These algorithms can efficiently and exactly solve sub-problems and directly optimize a convex upper bound of the real problem, providing optimality certificates on the way.

Rarely-switching linear bandits: optimization of causal effects for the real world

no code implementations30 May 2019 Benjamin Lansdell, Sofia Triantafillou, Konrad Kording

Using this idea, and the theory of linear contextual bandits, we present a conservative policy updating procedure which updates a deterministic policy only when justified.

Accelerating Dynamic Programs via Nested Benders Decomposition with Application to Multi-Person Pose Estimation

no code implementations ECCV 2018 Shaofei Wang, Alexander Ihler, Konrad Kording, Julian Yarkony

We present a novel approach to solve dynamic programs (DP), which are frequent in computer vision, on tree-structured graphs with exponential node state space.

Measuring and regularizing networks in function space

no code implementations ICLR 2019 Ari S. Benjamin, David Rolnick, Konrad Kording

To optimize a neural network one often thinks of optimizing its parameters, but it is ultimately a matter of optimizing the function that maps inputs to outputs.

Improving generalization by regularizing in $L^2$ function space

no code implementations ICLR 2018 Ari S. Benjamin, Konrad Kording

The resulting learning rule, which we call Hilbert-constrained gradient descent (HCGD), is thus closely related to the natural gradient but regularizes a different and more calculable metric over the space of functions.

Towards an integration of deep learning and neuroscience

no code implementations13 Jun 2016 Adam Marblestone, Greg Wayne, Konrad Kording

We hypothesize that (1) the brain optimizes cost functions, (2) these cost functions are diverse and differ across brain locations and over development, and (3) optimization operates within a pre-structured architecture matched to the computational problems posed by behavior.

Science Concierge: A fast content-based recommendation system for scientific publications

2 code implementations4 Apr 2016 Titipat Achakulvisut, Daniel E. Acuna, Tulakan Ruangrong, Konrad Kording

Here, we develop an algorithm, and an accompanying Python library, that implements a recommendation system based on the content of articles.

Convex Relaxation Regression: Black-Box Optimization of Smooth Functions by Learning Their Convex Envelopes

no code implementations5 Feb 2016 Mohammad Gheshlaghi Azar, Eva Dyer, Konrad Kording

Our approach enables the use of convex optimization tools to solve a class of non-convex optimization problems.

Automatic discovery of cell types and microcircuitry from neural connectomics

no code implementations15 Jul 2014 Eric Jonas, Konrad Kording

Neural connectomics has begun producing massive amounts of data, necessitating new analysis methods to discover the biological and computational structure.
