Excited to share our new preprint: "Better Together: Evaluating the Complementarity of Earth Embedding Models"! Short summary in this thread! arxiv.org/abs/2605.18667
Better Together: Evaluating the Complementarity of Earth Embedding Models
Earth embedding models transform Earth observation data into embeddings uniquely tied to locations on the Earth's surface. These models are typically evaluated in isolation, comparing the downstream t...

In our latest perspective article, we outline how ML can overcome 4 current obstacles for large-scale, high-resolution monitoring of protected areas. doi.org/10.1002/2688... Hope this stimulates the conversation and provides a pathway of how ML research can be applied for monitoring PAs at scale.
Happy to share the latest version of our work on compositional maps in hippocampus with Jo Warren, @jcrwhittington.bsky.social, @behrenstimb.bsky.social. We propose hippocampus constructs maps from cortical building blocks in replay – now with empirical support! www.nature.com/articles/s41... 1/9
Constructing future behavior in the hippocampal formation through composition and replay - Nature Neuroscience
A model of compositional state spaces in the hippocampus shows latent learning and rapid generalization. Bakermans et al. show that this model predicts the emergence of place responses in replay.

A model of compositional state spaces in the #hippocampus shows latent learning and rapid generalisation, and predicts the emergence of place responses in replay – which is discovered empirically in an existing dataset 🧪🧠 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
