Animals can identify objects robustly under different viewing conditions (e.g.,spatial location or rotation)
To find which features neurons are selective or invariant to researchers rely on their intuition.
This paper introduces a novel data-driven method to find invariances📊
How can we identify what are the invariances that biological neurons encode for? Check out my work with
@neuralbash. @AntolikLab and @sinzlab "Learning invariance manifolds of visual sensory neurons" openreview.net/pdf?id=2dQyEN…
It's also at @neur_reps, poster session at 3:30pm!
Together with flatmates, we offer space in our flat in Poznań, Poland, for students from #Ukraine escaping from war. We will manage to host a few people short-term, and one till mid-June. No cost, just DM me! #mathtwitter#STEM
Does Georgism Work? Is Land a Really Big Deal?

Some people say Land is not an important thing in the economy. The evidence says otherwise, read this thread for more.
In April, @slatestarcodex posted my book review of Henry George's Progress & Poverty. Readers wanted me to do an empirical follow up that answers the q: "Does Georgism Work?"
Today the first in a three-part series goes up, asking "Is Land a Big Deal?"
