Self-Supervised Representation Learning on Neural Network Weights for Model Characteristic Prediction
Self-Supervised Learning (SSL) has been shown to learn useful and informationpreserving representations. Neural Networks (NNs) are widely applied, yet their weight space is still not fully understood. Therefore, we propose to use SSL to learn hyper-representations of the weights of populations of NNs. To that end, we introduce domain specific data augmentations and an adapted attention architecture. Our empirical evaluation demonstrates that self-supervised representation learning in this domain is able to recover diverse NN model characteristics. Further, we show that the proposed learned representations outperform prior work for predicting hyper-parameters, test accuracy, and generalization gap as well as transfer to out-of-distribution settings. Code and datasets are publicly available1.
World's longest tiramisu record broken in London
World's longest tiramisu record broken in London The record for the world's longest tiramisu has been broken in London. One-hundred Italian chefs gathered at Chelsea Town Hall on Saturday and Sunday to whip up a tiramisu long enough to topple the previous record set by Milanese Galbani in Milan, which stood at 273.5m (897ft). As per Guinness World Record rules, the record-breaking tiramisu was made and assembled live on site, and used 50,000 ladyfinger biscuits and more than 3,000 eggs. The record was broken with the dessert measuring 440.6 m (1,445ft). Mirko Ricci, the man behind the London record attempt, originally held the record in 2017 in Italy, but another Italian team broke that in 2019.
