In case it helps:

What data brokers call "#segmentation" is never meant to acknowledge what you self-identify as.

It's merely one harmful #label after the other slapped onto you. Harmful because its only purpose is to either extract more #profit from you, or to exclude you from services if you're likely to not contribute to somebody else's earnings.

There are no "mostly harmless" labels, even when those that serve to exclude you are the worst.

~~~ #INTRODUCTION ~~~

Hi out there! :blobfoxwave:

My name is Stephan, I'm a Bavarian/German guy from #München 🤍💙, but currently living in #Basel/#Switzerland 🇨🇭.

PROFESSION :blobfoxcomputer:
Professionally, I am somewhere between #Egyptology and #MachineLearning. I'm currently doing my #PhD, applying ML approaches on fragmentary ancient Egyptian papyri, including things like #handwriting analysis, #NLP, #ObjectDetection, #Segmentation etc.

HOBBIES :ablobcatbongo:
Outside the university, I'm a very passionate #gamer, doing lots of PC video #gaming (#Steam is ❤️). I love #politics, I am a dedicated #plantdaddy. Sometimes I draw or write stories, whenever there is enough time left. I'm also a huuuge #Eurovision addict!

PRIVATE :QueerCat_Pride:
Pronouns are he/him, I'm definitely :heart_pride:, thus dedicated to #LGBTQIA rights. I also very much support #BLM and all minority rights in general - as they are an absolute necessity.

Continued thread

In T. cancriformis (and other notostracans), the posterior legs get smaller and smaller, and closer and closer together while the dorsal segmentation stays regular. This disjunct in segmentation occurred at least by the Permian, and possibly earlier. What the hell, Triops? Follow the rules! For this and other reasons, I'd REALLY like to the HOX genes of branchiopods explored in more detail. #evodevo #segmentation

❓ Did Diffusion meet Segmentation?

💡 The answer is YES!

✨ MedSegDiff: Medical Image Segmentation with Diffusion Probabilistic Model

It performs even better than the existing models when tested with medical images

Yesterday, I shared about Object Detection using Diffusion. Check it out here:

I am a #DevelopmentalBiologist on the faculty in Genetics at Harvard Medical School and in Pathology at the Brigham and Women's Hospital. My lab studies the #development of #muscle and #skeleton. We are particularly interested in vertebrate #segmentation. We also examine how #metabolism crosstalks with #cell signaling and #mechanics during development. We develop in vitro #stemcell derived models recapitulating #somite formation with human pluripotent stem cells.

Apparently, very few people learnt something from #CambridgeAnalytica.

The problem was not (just) #Facebook selling your #data to evil guys.

It was #evil guys manipulating your beliefs through #SocialNetworks thanks to such data.

So you should ask yourself: how did I become so easy to manipulate?

One word: #segmentation.

It's a old #marketing technique that constructs homogeneous groups to target.

Facebook do this algorithmically.
You do this manually on #mastodon, through block and anger.
