Retrieval-Centric Deep Learning in Growing Nonparametric Neural Networks
Maximilian Schlegel, Rajai Nasser, Seijin Kobayashi +6
We investigate a general-purpose layer for deep learning that, instead of compressing arbitrary-size training data into fixed-size weight matrices, stores a new pair of key-value r…
Diffusion as a Training Curriculum for Timestep-Free Iterative Reasoning
Mariia Drozdova, Aidan Sirbu, Pietro Miotti +4
Diffusion models and recursive reasoners are both iterative, but they carry information across iterations differently. We add a persistent hidden state to a diffusion denoiser and…
BFF: Simple explanations for complex phenomena
Charlotte Knierim, Luca Versari, Robert Obryk +2
The ''Computational Life'' paper (Agüera y Arcas et al., 2024) argues that paired interactions in a computational soup are an effective way to find self-replicators. In this work,…
COVI White Paper
Hannah Alsdurf, Edmond Belliveau, Yoshua Bengio +21
The SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) pandemic has caused significant strain on public health institutions around the world. Contact tracing is an essential tool to change the course of the Co…
Committee Draft of JPEG XL Image Coding System
Alexander Rhatushnyak, Jan Wassenberg, Jon Sneyers +15
JPEG XL is a practical approach focused on scalable web distribution and efficient compression of high-quality images. It provides various benefits compared to existing image forma…
Randen - fast backtracking-resistant random generator with AES+Feistel+Reverie
Jan Wassenberg, Robert Obryk, Jyrki Alakuijala +1
Algorithms that rely on a pseudorandom number generator often lose their performance guarantees when adversaries can predict the behavior of the generator. To protect non-cryptogra…
