🚨 Last chance! Early bird tickets for #AutoML2025 in #NYC close Aug 1! Join top experts like Manuela Veloso, Andrew Gordon Wilson & more. 🎟️ 2025.automl.cc/registration... 📝 Submit late-breaking work to the non-archival by Aug 4!

La rêve ! And maybe one day we do not need to provide each and every information in 3 different (badly designed) forms neither. And maybe just one fsd advice and not two? And maybe no triple validation of lab direction needed to buy a train ticket for 40 euros? Oh, dear France, life could be 🏖️

When everyone else goes deep learning and foundation models, time for the optimization crowd to become creative 😇 In this PNAS brief report, we introduce an innovative approach to attack the long-standing problem of placing n points in [0,1)^d as uniformly as possible: doi.org/10.1073/pnas...

Uniformly distributed point sets of low discrepancy are heavily used in experimental design and across a very wide range of applications such as nu...
