I was in Sweden this week! 🇸🇪❄️ Many thanks to Nikolai Ilinykh for inviting me to give a talk at the University of Gothenburg. I enjoyed having inspiring chats and delicious food with Sharid Loáiciga, @asayeed.bsky.social, Simon Dobnik, Hyewon Jang and Chris Howes at CLASP. Much appreciated! 😊🎄

I will be attending EMNLP in China to present our paper with @bylinina.bsky.social (who will be in China, too) and Jakub Dotlacil in the BabyLM workshop! Looking forward to meeting people there! ✨ 😊 #EMNLP2025 @emnlpmeeting.bsky.social

Just got back from Hawaii, where I presented a workshop paper on image memorability at @iccv.bsky.social 🌺 Coming from multimodal NLP, it was my first time attending a CV conference. Everywhere I looked, there were talks and posters that were incredibly interesting!

What makes an image memorable? And can we predict image memorability using pretrained vision encoders? We explored activations, attention distributions, image patch uniformity and sparse autoencoder losses using image representations across the layers of CLIP, DINOv2 and SigLIP2.
