Probabilistic machine learning and its applications in AI, health, user interaction. @ellisinstitute.fi, @ellis.eu, fcai.fi, @aifunmcr.bsky.social

1/ Amortized probabilistic methods like our amortized conditioning engine (ACE) can solve regression, simulator-based inference, optimization, active learning in a single forward pass... Try it in your browser & see all distributions change in real time! Links and more info👇

Building the world's first nationwide AI model for healthcare, with high-quality registry data + next-gen machine learning. ELLIS Institute Finland's health moonshot is lifting off, with a boost from Business Finland's funding. Read more: www.ellisinstitute.fi/a-world-firs... 🤝 @fimm-uh.bsky.social

A world-first nationwide AI model will boost decision-making in healthcare | ELLIS Institute Finland

FINe-Health Foundry will use Finland’s national health databases as part of a ‘Swiss Army knife’ AI model for healthcare.

1/ Another @iclr-conf.bsky.social paper thread! Do you want to make SOTA probabilistic predictions using transformers & your dataset is a *set* (not a sequence or time series), so you care about permutation invariance... but also efficiency? Keep reading, we have exactly what you need. 👇

1/ Very happy with this spotlight paper at @neuripsconf.bsky.social where we continue our "Amortize Everything" agenda. After the Amortized Conditioning Engine (Chang et al., AISTATS, 2025) which amortizes all sorts of inference tasks, here with ALINE we amortize both inference & design.

We jointly amortize Bayesian inference and active data acquisition within a single architecture. Excited to share our #NeurIPS2025 ✨Spotlight✨ paper “ALINE: Joint Amortization for Bayesian Inference and Active Data Acquisition”! www.huangdaolang.com/aline/

🚀 ELLIS Institute Finland 🇫🇮 officially opens today, launching a hub for cutting-edge AI research, talent development, and collaboration across academia, government & industry. Opening remarks by @samikaski.bsky.social, @serge.belongie.com, Bernhard Schölkopf, PM Petteri Orpo & Peter Sarlin

Ceremonial ribbon-cutting by Peter Sarlin (Institute Co-Founder & CEO at AMD Silo AI), Serge Belongie (ELLIS President), Petteri Orpo (Prime Minister of Finland), Bernhard Schölkopf (ELLIS Co-Founder), and Samuel Kaski (Institute Founding Director and ELLIS Fellow)Opening remarks by Samuel Kaski (Institute Founding Director and ELLIS Fellow)Opening remarks by Bernhard Schölkopf (ELLIS Co-Founder), and Serge Belongie (ELLIS President)

Very happy and also honoured to serve in a new way, not only thinking of our @ellisinstitute.fi , our very nice collaboration within Nordic AIR, or with Northern UK, but the whole of Europe. @ellis.eu is good for Europe!

The ELLIS Society welcomes its new Board. As the primary decision-making body, it will play a vital role in shaping the future of ELLIS and advancing #AI and #MachineLearning research across Europe in a time of global change. Read the full article: ellis.eu/news/ellis-s...

Do you like to train neural networks to solve all your nasty probabilistic inference and sequential design problems? Do you love letter salads such as NPs, PFNs, NPE, SBI, BED? Then no place is better than the Amortized ProbML workshop we are organizing at #ELLIS UnConference.

Amortized ProbML:
Unlocking Probabilistic Machine Learning for Real-world Inference & Design (🇩🇰)
ELLIS UnConference Workshop
Copenhagen | 2 December, 2025

Suomessa on tehty 1970-luvulta lähtien tutkimusta, joka on mahdollistanut mullistuksia tekoälyn saralla. Ellis-instituutin tarkoituksena on nostaa tämä kokonaisuus seuraavalle tasolle. "Nyt on oikeasti mahdollista tehdä asioita maailmanluokassa, @samikaski.bsky.social sanoo. yle.fi/a/74-20179689

Tekoälyhype nosti huippututkijoiden palkat NBA-tähtien tasolle – silti Suomikin voi olla houkutteleva

Teknologiayhtiöt kilpailevat tekoälytutkijoista jättipalkkioilla, mutta akateemisella vapaudella ei ole hintaa.

Jenkeissä (ja muuallakin) tekoälytutkijoita houkutellaan akatemiasta yritysten labroihin valtavilla palkkioilla. Harvardissa ollaan jo huolissaan akateemisesta tutkimuksesta, kun opiskelijoita mukaansa vetävistä tutkijatohtoreista alkaa olla pula. Suomessa yritetään vastata tähän haasteeseen.
