We look forward to applying this approach to study intrinsic dimension in non-equilibrium systems and neural representations in quantized neural networks. 4/N
We directly link the BID estimator for the intrinsic dimensionality of the spin dynamics to the overlap distribution in finite-size systems. 2/N
We find that the BID scales sublinearly in the spin-glass phase, with changes of scaling exponents sitting at phase transitions. 3/N
Finally, a call to the neuroscience community: the BID is the perfect tool to study low-dimensional dynamics directly at the level of spikes in both spiking network models and data. Feel free to get in touch if you're interested in collaborating. N/N
The "publish or perish" culture must perish. Scientists need time to think.
We just published our Slow Science Manifesto, where we argue that huge changes are needed in the way we fund, publish, and evaluate science.

Not despondent to share our new work arxiv.org/abs/2601.17427 with Santiago Acevedo and Cristopher Erazo from SISSA, where we show that Binary Intrisic Dimension (BID) [ nature.com/articles/s42... ] is able to detect phase transitions in the Hopfield model. 1/N
Please RT - Open PhD position in my group at the Donders Center for Neuroscience, Radboud University.
We're looking for a PhD candidate interested in developing theories of learning in neural networks.
Applications are open until October 20th.

Just got back from a great summer school at Sapienza University sites.google.com/view/math-hi... where I gave a short course on Dynamics and Learning in RNNs. I compiled a (very biased) list of recommended readings on the subject, for anyone interested: aleingrosso.github.io/_pages/2025_...
With all the sad developments in the US - go study in the Netherlands: relatively low tuition (and adequate job search visa after graduating) for high-quality programs like this one in Neurophysics or Cognitive Neuroscience at the neuroscience Donders hub
