sunday, 10/19, the sloppy heads return to our beloved mama tried backyard for an afternoon benefit for #brooklyn new school, with james mcnew, jon glaser (!), & more. #nyc

Writer/professor/activist Lauren Yanks '19 M.Div. recently accompanied a Yale-connected medical mission to Ukraine. Here's a segment about it from Spectrum News in the Hudson Valley! https://spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/hudson-valley/news/2025/08/25/…

Mitigating Model Drift in Developing Economies Using Synthetic Data and Outliers
Machine Learning models in finance are highly susceptible to model drift, where predictive performance declines as data distributions shift. This issue is especially acute in developing economies such as those in Central Asia and the Caucasus - including Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Azerbaijan - where frequent and unpredictable macroeconomics shocks destabilize financial data. To the best of our knowledge, this is among the first studies to examine drift mitigation methods on financi…

Birational Invariants from Hodge Structures and Quantum Multiplication
We introduce new invariants of smooth complex projective varieties, called Hodge atoms. Their construction combines rational Gromov-Witten invariants with classical Hodge theory and relies on the notion of an F-bundle, which is a non-archimedean version of a non-commutative Hodge structure. The Hodge atoms arise from the spectral decomposition of the F-bundle under the Euler vector field action, and behave additively under blowups, in accordance with Iritani's blowup theorem. We compute several…

Single layer tiny Co$^4$ outpaces GPT-2 and GPT-BERT
We show that a tiny Co$^4$ machine(Adeel,2025) with a single layer, two heads, and 8M parameters, operating at an approximate cost of $O(N)$ (where $N$ is the number of input tokens), outpaces the BabyLM Challenge baselines GPT-2 (124M, 12 layers, $O(N^2))$ and GPT-BERT (30M, 12 layers, $O(N^2))$ in just two epochs, while both are trained for ten. Co$^4$ achieves orders-of-magnitude greater training efficiency on 10M tokens, demonstrating highly sample efficient pretraining. Using the BabyLM ch…

David Byrne on How Music Connects Us
Music helped former Talking Heads frontman David Byrne come out of his shell and connect with others—and research shows he's not alone. We explore the science behind how music shapes our social lives.

A LoRa IoT Framework with Machine Learning for Remote Livestock Monitoring in Smart Agriculture
This work presents AgroTrack, a LoRa-based IoT framework for remote livestock monitoring in smart agriculture. The system is designed for low-power, long-range communication and supports real-time tracking and basic health assessment of free-range livestock through GPS, motion, and temperature sensors integrated into wearable collars. Data is collected and transmitted via LoRa to gateways and forwarded to a cloud platform for visualization, alerts, and analytics. To enhance its practical deploy…

#3GuteDingeDesTages
🙂 Pancakefrühstück Bregaglia-Ausgabe (mit italienischem Mehl tipo 00 und crema novi)
🙂 lange ausgeschlafen UND Mittagsschlaf
🙂 die murkelkleinen Fenster machen die Cascina zwar dunkel, halten aber auch die Hitze draussen

come happen with the heads at the next heads happening, 9/11 at mama tried in #brooklyn, feat. geologist from animal collective (solo hurdy gurdy!), rare NYCing by tom carter/pat murano, & yr very own sloppy heads, plus dj sets by james mcnew! amazing flyer by abraham. #nyc
