I just came back from my first-ever linguistic fieldwork, and it was awesome! I'll be attending LIFT-TAL 22 in Marseille next Monday to present preliminary results on some of the data I collected in Bolivia during this fieldwork. Don't hesitate to drop by if you're around!

Our paper on using Optimal Transport to compare human cortical surfaces was accepted at #NeurIPS22 🥳 We implement a new OT solver (FUGW) to compare human brains although their anatomy and functional activity patterns differ a lot. arxiv.org/abs/2206.09398 github.com/alexisthual/fu…

Finally! 🎉⏰🎉 Marvin Lavechin and I just released the preprint of our latest paper "Statistical learning bootstraps early language acquisition" (🧵coming soon). 📢Psycholinguists and ML enthusiasts, check it out and let us know what you think! psyarxiv.com/rx94d

After leading #NLP team at NAVER LABS Europe for >2y, during which we published papers in venues such as ACL, EMNLP, ICLR, NEURIPS, ICML; contributed to BigScience Large Model Training; shared models and toolkits (such as 🪩disco); started speech research, I am passing the torch to V. Nikoulina!

🎉 Super happy to announce that a significant part of Marvin Lavechin's and my PhD research on modelling early language acquisition has finally been published in Developmental Science! 📄 doi.org/10.1111/desc.1… (OS version : onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/author/9…) 🧵1/7

Super proud to announce latest research partnership with Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation ! This collaboration takes us one step closer to our vision: a foundation model that can assess mental health symptoms, from depression and cognitive decline to insomnia. Big step forward for precision psychiatry
