Ever wanted to easily edit individual sounds in a complex audio scene—like removing a cough or making a doorbell louder?

New paper - Recomposer(arxiv.org/abs/2509.05256) from our Sound Understanding team introduces a powerful way to do just that.

Huge congrats to all the authors 🎉

Today we are releasing the dataset of table tennis ball trajectories used to train the Google DeepMind robot that can play amateur table tennis with humans (sites.google.com/corp/view/co...). This work was accepted for presentation at #ICRA2025 and we hope to see you there!

In December, I posted about our new paper on mastering board games using internal + external planning. 👇

Here's a talk now on Youtube about it given by my awesome colleague John Schultz!

Thanks for putting this together. Would love to be added

TIL that there's a Gemini @gradio-hf.bsky.social library that lets you automatically build Python chat bots and web apps with just a few lines of code, then (optionally) deploy them as apps or in @huggingface.bsky.social Spaces.

✨🙌 Amazing work, @_akhaliq!!
