Herrenberg is boasting about about their multimodal system for sustainable transport: stadtnavi. Hey, other cities, don't be jealous: Just adopt the solution, developed by Trufi.

The stadtnavi system, built on Trufi’s open-source platform, shows how cities can democratize mobility. Real-time updates, CO₂ comparisons, and weather alerts aren’t exclusive to Herrenberg—they’re open for any city to implement. The project’s success lies in its adaptability: a white-label solution that lets cities rebrand and expand it freely.

Ollama released with new engine for multimodal models! #Multimodal #LLM #ML #AI https://ollama.com/blog/multimodal-models

🚀👏 Oh joy! Ollama's shiny new toy can handle *multimodal* models, as if the world wasn't already drowning in #buzzwords and models that are impossible to distinguish from one another. 😂🤯 Apparently, you can now ask a bajillion-parameter monstrosity what it sees in a video frame—because what we really needed was another way to get ignored by #AI. 🙄🤖

SpeechAgents: Human-Communication Simulation with Multi-Modal Multi-Agent Systems. Multi-modal LLM system simulates human communication using speech and generates human-like dialogues with consistent content, rhythm, & emotion.

Funnily, they also elaborate on a "think before you speak" design aspect. This might also be applicable to our everyday lives.

#ActivityRecognition #research: I am looking for an outlet (peer reviewed) for a #tutorial paper on collecting #multimodal #data with #wearables and #IoT in #nursing homes. We learnt a lot in our pilot study in a #dementia #care ward and want to share our insights/mistakes with a broader audience (#Nursing, #Physiotherapy, #Psychology, #Neurology, #Gerontology) Anyone with a tip for an outlet that accepts a collection of practical considerations for collecting #realWorldData?

Ticketless #trams travel coming soon to #EdinburghTrams with the introduction of tap on / tap off payment by contactless bank card, including a maximum fare cap – finally integrated with #LothianBuses to allow proper #multimodal journeys.

(#TransportForEdinburgh travel passes (aka “Ridacards”) still offer the best value for very frequent travellers.)

#30DayChartChallenge Día 10: ¡Buceando en la Distribución del VIX! 🌊

En lugar de solo ver la línea del VIX, hoy analizamos su "distribución de probabilidad" por Presidencia de EE.UU. (Clinton -> Trump 2º). ¡La forma lo es todo!

Usando #rstats y #ggplot2, estas densidades facetadas nos permiten investigar:
* Modos Dominantes: ¿Cuál era el nivel "normal" de VIX (el pico más alto)? ¿Cambió mucho?
* Multi-modalidad: ¿Hay evidencia de múltiples estados de volatilidad (picos secundarios) dentro de un mismo mandato? 🤔
* Riesgo de Cola: ¿Qué tan probable era el "pánico" (VIX > 35)? ¡Compara las colas derechas!

Estos patrones reflejan los distintos regímenes de volatilidad y la percepción del riesgo sistémico. No es solo el nivel, ¡sino la "estructura" de la incertidumbre lo que importa!

🎉 Behold, the groundbreaking revelation: #AI can create images without 🐘 elephants! Apparently, it only took two of the #tech world's largest companies to figure this out, and the internet is losing its collective mind. 🤦‍♂️ #Multimodal this, multimodal that—who knew AI could do something so *noteworthy* as separating text from images? 🙄
