In this talk, we discuss the paper "Evolution of error correction through a need for speed" by Riccardo Ravasio et al., Science, 2026. Abstract: Kinetic proofreading is a class of error-correcting mechanisms in biology that expend energy to avoid mistakes during replication, transcription, and translation. Proofreading is typically assumed to evolve when selection for fidelity …

In this talk, we discuss the paper "Tangent-Space Regularization for Neural-Network Models of Dynamical Systems" by Fredrik B Carlson et al, arXiv (2026). Abstract: This work introduces the concept of tangent space regularization for neural-network models of dynamical systems. The tangent space to the dynamics function of many physical systems of interest in control applications …

In this talk, we discuss the paper "Towards a General Intelligence and Interface for Wearable Health Data" by Girish Narayanswamy et al., arXiv, 2026. Abstract: While ubiquitous wearable sensors capture a wealth of behavioral and physiological information, effectively transforming these signals into personalized health insights is challenging. Specifically, converting low-level sensor data into representations capable …
