For seminar recording, please click here Talk Title: Probabilistic Modeling of Dynamics of the Tumor Microenvironment Abstract: Cancer therapies succeed only in a subset of patients partly due to the heterogeneity of cells across and within tumors. Single-cell and spatial genomic technologies present exciting opportunities to characterize unknown cell types in complex tissues such as […]
For seminar recording, please click here Talk Title: Modern Hopfield Networks for Novel Transformer Architectures Abstract: Modern Hopfield Networks or Dense Associative Memories are recurrent neural networks with fixed point attractor states that are described by an energy function. In contrast to conventional Hopfield Networks, which were popular in the 1980s, their modern versions have […]
