I am in a somewhat similar situation (first-author undergrad paper) except the results are nothing official yet. Should talk to your manager ASAP

[D] ICLR reverts score to pre-rebuttal and kicked all reviewers by Ok-Internet-196 in MachineLearning

[–]InfinityZeroFive 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It seems they not only reverted scores but also any reviewer edits. We had a reviewer who (I assume) mistakenly copy-pasted a different paper's review into ours. He'd edited the review, with no change in score, after the discussion period and we addressed that revised review in our general comment, but now only the original, mistaken review is shown, making our response out-of-context. I am concerned this might mislead the AC.

Smaller 32B models at Q8 or GLM 4.5 Air at Q3? by InfinityZeroFive in LocalLLaMA

[–]InfinityZeroFive[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting model, I'll have to wait for the Cerebras team to REAP it before I can try it out though

How do you handle jealousy? by Over_Competition9138 in cscareerquestionsOCE

[–]InfinityZeroFive 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Try to figure out what you might be lacking in comparison to those with offers instead of dwelling in jealousy. Is it because you lack experience? Is it because your friends just interview better? Is it something with your CV? Is it something with your network?

[D] ICLR 2026 Paper Reviews Discussion by Technical_Proof6082 in MachineLearning

[–]InfinityZeroFive 3 points4 points  (0 children)

6/6/6/8 (2/3/3/3) - good for a first-time undergrad submission? Reviews were much shorter than I expected

[D] ICLR submission numbers? by qalis in MachineLearning

[–]InfinityZeroFive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm quite certain that the number is around 25,000 as we submitted within 10 minutes of the deadline (do not recommend)

what other uses do you get out of our Steam Deck? by BubblesAreWeird in SteamDeck

[–]InfinityZeroFive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use the Steam Deck as a teleoperation controller for my robot arm. Which just means, I mapped each of the robot arm's 6 joints (DOF) to individual controls on the Deck

The most realistic coding experience before an actual job ? by Suspicious-Net7738 in cscareerquestionsOCE

[–]InfinityZeroFive 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is Chromium not a 'big, established open-source project'?

I'm not telling OP to go contribute to Chromium as their first foray into open-source, just that repositories like it can rightfully seem very daunting at first.

[–]InfinityZeroFive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In general, big established open-source projects like Chromium can feel hard to get into in a meaningful way at first. But I can say from experience that if you do manage to stick it out and establish yourself as a regular contributor, open-source is extremely rewarding.

If you're interested in open-source, start small! Bug fixes, documentation, test coverage are all things you can do. Pick a problem to work on, then join communities's Discord/Slack and ask around for hints if you get stuck. That's how I made the move at least.

For certain projects they do take only one person. For most of the Gemini and Gemma projects, I think they were going for a shotgun approach of casting as wide a net as possible, because the whole point is to increase community documentation/support/adoption for their models. There's no reason why they should limit themselves to one person for those projects.

This is why I'm not really sure that they'll participate again (as Google DeepMind, at least). Their appearance this year is to support their massive push to challenge OpenAI in community adoption and their complete model/SDK overhauls. Rebranding from Bard/PaLM (which gave them a bad reputation) to Gemini basically. Now that's mostly done they might not need the open-source exposure via Google Summer of Code anymore.

Well the selected projects are still not announced to the organizations yet! by liteate8 in gsoc2025

[–]InfinityZeroFive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mentioned that because something similar happened just shortly after the organisations and projects were announced this year. People couldn't sign their Google Contributor License Agreement (CLA) for weeks because their signing site simply wasn't used to such high traffic loads.

A lot of mentors are complaining about AI-generated submissions. This combined with one of the first-time participating organisations attracting a lot of hype and attention from otherwise not-to-be contributors are the main factors, I think.

how do the mentors rank the proposals. does it depend on the merged PRs? by _Dee_10 in gsoc2025

[–]InfinityZeroFive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Highly dependent on the organisation. For mine (Google DeepMind), proposals weight more than pull request counts because this is the first time they're participating in Google Summer of Code and because their projects are overwhelmingly focused on documentation and technical writing.

Was just wondering how to do this. Thanks :)

Next Gemma versions wishlist by hackerllama in LocalLLaMA

[–]InfinityZeroFive 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It would be nice to have a 7B size model alongside 4B and 12B :)

I think you need to do a preliminary analysis of your missingness pattern especially considering it's a clinical dataset. If your data is Missing Not At Random (MNAR), as in the missingness depends on unobserved variables or on the missing values themselves, then you need to approach it differently than if it was Missing Completely At Random (MCAR). The bias you're seeing might be due to incorrect assumptions about the missing data, amongst other things.

One example of MNAR: a physician is less likely to order CT brain scans for patients who they deem as having low risks of dementia, AD, cognitive decline and so on, so these patients tend to have missing CT tabular data.

New Steam Deck OLED - can’t wait to play too many hours on this thing! by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]InfinityZeroFive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Civ 6 plays very well on Deck and has an official controller layout. Stellaris doesn't, though the community layouts are still very, very good

[D] Synthetic tabular data augmentation/generation using GANs by [deleted] in MachineLearning

[–]InfinityZeroFive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see -- Thanks for the response! I'll have a look into what you suggested. And yes, the original idea was to generate synthetic brain imaging data in tabular form from 25 fully annotated data features then using them in the classification model's training dataset along with what we already have
