Wrapping up my first week as a PhD candidate with @hessianai.bsky.social. I got to know very welcoming and smart people working on Multimodal AI in Marcus Rohrbach's lab.
What role will Probabilistic Circuits play in a multimodal world? @kerstingaiml.bsky.social Really excited for what's ahead!
We put probabilistic circuits into diffusion language models and got a big boost in reasoning performance!
🚨 New paper alert!
We introduce Vision-Language Programs (VLP), a neuro-symbolic framework that combines the perceptual power of VLMs with program synthesis for robust visual reasoning.
Can concept-based models handle complex, object-rich images? We think so! Meet Object-Centric Concept Bottlenecks (OCB) — adding object-awareness to interpretable AI. Led by David Steinmann w/ @toniwuest.bsky.social & @kerstingaiml.bsky.social .

I think we should be building systems that complement people; systems that do well the things that people do poorly; systems that make individuals and organizations more effective and more humane. 3/
🚀 TU Darmstadt leads the new Cluster of Excellence "Reasonable AI" – advancing trustworthy, efficient & adaptive AI grounded in common sense. A big thank you to the entire team, the university, and the state of Hesse for their tremendous work & support!
Horizontal, vertical, hybrid data partitioning: heterogeneity is tough to handle in federated learning!
🔥In “Scaling Probabilistic Circuits via Data Partitioning" - accepted at #UAI25 - we unify the different settings through aggregation of learned client distributions: arxiv.org/abs/2503.08141
Excited to share that our paper got accepted at #ICML2025!! 🎉
We challenge Vision-Language Models like OpenAI’s o1 with Bongard problems, classic visual reasoning challenges and uncover surprising shortcomings.

I'm excited to present our spotlight on meta-causal models at #ICLR2025 next week.
We model evolving causal graphs in dynamic systems. Applications to inference and attribution of agent actions. Paper: openreview.net/forum?id=J9V...
Visit our poster #441 during the Sat 3pm session.
Feel in meme mode today. 😅
Happy to see our work at TMLR!
We systematically show the relationships between two apparently different fields: tensor factorizations and circuits, and how bridging the two enables us to exchange results, research opportunitie in ML, and practical implementation solutions.
Thrilled to share our #ICLR2025 work on Meta-Causal States! 🌟 Causal graphs evolve with dynamic systems & agent actions. We show how to cluster causal models by qualitative behavior, revealing hidden dynamics & emergent relationships 🚀 #Causality #ML

When building human allied AI systems, it is imperative to think of who is in control. In our blue sky paper at #AAAI, we argue that a deeper understanding of whether human is in the loop or if AI is in the loop is essential! arxiv.org/pdf/2412.14232

Some of the causality crew are here and Florian is also working on PCs
Currently finishing my master's thesis and this plot is kinda mesmerizing ✨️🤩
GMMs were here 30 years ago and will be here in 30 years.
GANs? VAEs? nah.
I would really appreciate such an effort. Students and phds I talked to acknowledged that problem for model/algo comparability, but nobody knew of any ML resources treating it.
