Speaker:Shiyang Ma(Shanghai Jiaotong University)Venue: Zijingang Campus, Administration Building, Room 1417Time:20th December, 2024 14:00Abstract:Local genetic correlation analysis is an important tool for identifying genetic loci with shared biology across traits. Recently Border et al. have shown that the results of these analyses are confounded by cross-trait assortative mating (xAM) leading to many false positive findings. Here we describe LAVA-Knock, a local genetic correlation method that

Multi-task learning is a widely used technique for harnessing information from various tasks. Recently, the sparse orthogonal factor regression (SOFAR) framework, based on the sparse singular value decomposition (SVD) within the coefficient matrix, was introduced for interpretable multi-task learning, enabling the discovery of meaningful latent feature-response association networks across different layers.

Rethinking the Renaissance: Pico on Aquinas in the 900 Theses
Date: 2024-10-28 14:52:10
Time: 19:00-21:00 pm, Oct. 28, 2024 (Monday)
Venue: Tencent meeting
Speaker: Leon Chai
Category: Talk & Lecture
I propose a new way of arriving at a Renaissance-Medieval distinction. Medieval theology had favored the independent status of ideas, defined by Aquinas and others as existing in the mind of God. By contrast Pico sees only a divine emanationism, by which God creates or produces only a first hypostasis from which ideas arise subsequently. Thus we can associate the Renaissance with a new primacy of creative activity or process over a previously-stable medieval world order based on ideationism.
