Bumblebee facial movements give clues to their inner lives

New Scientist

Bees seem to show when they are pleased and like something, rather than just needing it, in one of the strongest signs yet that insects have subjective experiences. In recent decades, it has become clear that bees are capable of more complex behaviours than we previously thought, such as counting and demonstrating a sense of rhythm . But discerning whether they have inner states akin to our emotions is more difficult. For one thing, insects don't have the flexible facial musculature of mammals, which we use to communicate our feelings. "How can we get any behavioural readout of these insects with a hard body and their mask of a face," asks Andrew Barron at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia.

Neural Information Processing Systems

Instead of training asingle model that combines all the frames, we formulate the dynamic modeling problem with an incremental learning paradigm in which per-frame model difference is trained to complement the adaption of a base model on the current frame.

A naiveimplementation of this approach leads to the dynamic component taking over the static one as the representation of the former is inherently more general and prone to overfitting.

Neural Information Processing Systems

MLPs with"noencoding" struggle tofit high frequencysegments (see appendix for train details). Our workenables MLP networks toadaptivelyfitavarying spectrum offine details that previous methods struggle to capture in a single shot, without involved tuning of parameters or domain specific preprocessing.


PolynomialNeuralFields forSubbandDecompositionandManipulation

Neural Information Processing Systems

Neural fields have emerged as a new paradigm for representing signals, thanks to their ability to do it compactly while being easy to optimize. In most applications, however, neural fields are treated like black boxes, which precludes manysignal manipulation tasks.

Neural Information Processing Systems

Rounding out the story and contributions, firstly we present a brief toy univariate model hinting towards the necessity of early stopping: concretely, any univariate predictor satisfying alocal interpolation propertycan not achieve optimal test error for noisy distributions.

In the recent past, the seminal framework NeRF [19] inspired a lot of follow up work by modeling 3D objects as adensity functionσ(x)and view-dependent colorc(x,v)for each pointx R3 in the volume.
