biaslab / biaslab-hugo Goto Github PK

I had an idea to improve the website for outsiders a bit. Currently the team members pages feel a bit repetitive to me. Would it be possible to extend this page with an automatically filtered publication list, such that each member has a personalized list of publications on their profile page. This should make it also a bit clearer to outsiders what everyone is actually working on, without having to go through the general publication list. I am not saying that we have to implement this, but would rather have a discussion and share thoughts.

Can you think about how to present ForneyLab at biaslab.org and discuss in this issue.

In the add-projects branch, there are currently two projects: PHLC and BPTA. I've made a start, @ThijsvdLaar and @marcocox please finish the page for your own project. Specifically, I think we want (1) a short Problem Statement, (2) Methods and Solution Proposal and (3) Results.

There are currently some styling issues, but I've asked @bocharov-ivan to work on those (biaslab/hugo-academic-group#8)

As you proposed earlier, let's get rid of some preview options and keep only one.

Scenario:

• publication A has to_be_published = true, date = 2022-09-30 and publication_date = 2022-11-02 (example: Variational Bayes...)
• publication B has to_be_published = false, date = 2022-10-17 and publication_date is missing (example: Principled Pruning...)

Then publication A is ranked below B:

Since the publications should be ranked by publication date / time (descending: newest publications at the top), this is incorrect (to be published in November is below October, 2022) and has to be fixed.

Probably has to be changed here: https://github.com/biaslab/hugo-academic-group

Might want to take a look at a helper library I wrote to convert your jupyter notebooks to markdown

https://github.com/knowsuchagency/hugo_jupyter

Find a way to indicate open positions on the group's website.

It would be great if we can make a font file from our logo. In that case, we can add the log to text.

Raaja Ganapathy Subramanian suggested "Why don’t we link ORCID and Arxiv? That way the lists are auto updated? Or is that too fancy?"

Slack Message

At member page, add a place where we can add a link to an external personal page

In the same way as ForneyLab, Rocket and ReactiveMP

Propose a method to display the following on our landing page (see also deepmind landing page):

Developing autonomous agents that learn purposeful behavior from situated environmental interactions . Using these agents to automate the development of new signal processing algorithms.

to publications section

https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.11408

and replace the link in the projects section.

Add the open MSc project that is currently in our shared db folder under / project proposals / MSc project 2017

Eg under a new menu item called Recruitment

After changing the banner picture to new drawing the heading colours look slightly out of place.

We can try other colour combinations that match the updated picture better.

I had a look at the current state and I think it looks great. I want to suggest some final touches. Some of these items are actually for the academic-theme and some are for biaslab-hugo, but for convenience (for my convenience) I ve listed them together:

• bio page for Anouk: change Bsc to BSc
• increase font size a bit for subtitle "Bayesian Intelligent Autonomous Systems". The line between the title (BIASlab) and the subtitle may not be needed.
• Move Mission and approach pages to the blog (and as we discussed, use the blog titles). The [read more] then just points to the blogs. And then remove the existing blogs or keep them as hidden examples for new authors, eg post.md-example
• In the mission page, last line: fix the links: "Please have a look at our [publications](link here) and [projects](link here) sections for an overview of our work".
• For consistency, switch Eric's image for now to his portrait image. The current one is very hard to see on a small screen (eg phone).
• The pub by Thijs is not published in the Aug-2016 edition of IEEE Tr. journal. Probably write: accepted for publication, 2016
• the formatting of Projects, Publications and Blogs sections on the front page should be consistent.
  • The project titles should get the same font as the publication titles and the blog titles. I think we should try one size smaller than what we currently have for the publication (and blog) titles.
  • I think there is no need to add another color (green) to the pub dates and journals. Let's change that to the same blue as the authors. We don't want too many colors.

I am of course not sure if the requested font changes actually make it look better, so if you want to suggest something else, go ahead.

Finally, low priority, but some sections seem quite spacey. Eg there is a lot of white space in the blog section and the publications section. No need to change that now but if you can quickly do something about that, then please try something. If not, let it be.

For now, please add the publications from http://bertdv.github.io/research/

SITB 2022 website: https://sites.google.com/view/sitb2022/home, proceedings: https://www.dropbox.com/s/i0q8x74xhkixvue/Proceedings-SITB2022.pdf?dl=0

Add new open PhD position (https://jobs.tue.nl/en/vacancy/phd-position-on-bayesian-machine-learning-for-signal-processing-applications-334358.html) to the website.

At BIASlab's homepage https://biaslab.github.io/, the link to ForneyLab Github (in the menu) does not work. IN my case, it links to

https://biaslab.github.iohttps//github.com/biaslab/ForneyLab.jl .

The old logo's (e.g., SPS Brats) are publicly visible in static/img. Any objections to removing them?

I would like to move some materials from my own website (http://bertdv.github.io/) to the biaslab site. @ivan-bocharov can you do a proposal move for what it would look like to move the student starter page:

http://bertdv.github.io/research/starters-guide/

Collecting here comments from viewers of our (now live) site. Not necessarily should we act upon each comment. Just collecting here. If you hear comments from others please add them here.

• The laptop picture makes the (blue) links hard to read. Solutions: 1. make the image lighter, or 2. change to a different (lighter) image. (comment Gerard Nijsse at GN Hearing).
• On the main page your picture is a laptop and phone…..perhaps have a hearing instrument or wearable next to the phone…..to indicate the application platform….(A vd Berg, GN Hearing)
• On a phone screen, the first front page section collects the three read more's at the bottom rather than under the corresponding column. (Bert)

For example, current portrait of Magnus on the landing page is 3.7MB which consumes a lot of time (and traffic) to render.

The projects section on our homepage is pretty outdated. It has some posts on ForneyLab, but none on for example ReactiveMP. Either we need to actively update this section, or remove it. Perhaps discuss this during the team update.

Right now, if we need to deploy the site, someone needs to run make publish, and the number of people who can apply is growing.
We can create a publish workflow in our CI, and we will obtain these changes for free without extending the set of admins.

Currently, all links in Recruitment section of menu lead to the same URL.

In the early stages of our website development there was no need for separate hosting for binary static assets (paper PDFs, zipped archives, etc.). However, as time went by, the size of the repository grew significantly. Publishing/cloning process is quite slow and painful as well.

Unfortunately, git-lfs is not supported by Github Pages. In order to remedy repository growth, we should consider storing our binary static assets on a separate server (S3 bucket, Azure machine, etc.) and point a subdomain to this machine.

The uploading of said assets also has to require minimal manual intervention from user side (preferably, it has to happen during make publish run).

Move http://bertdv.github.io/teaching/AIP-5SSB0/ to BIASLab site. Preferably before end of year.

Currently we have to update documentation manually. It will be good to implement automatic updates of FL documentation on BIASlab website.

Hi guys, I am unable to clone the repository and get the following error message

There also seems to be an issue with the part 2 paper. If I were to guess, then it might be related to the colon in the file name that breaks windows.

On the landing page, at the top in the middle it says BIASLAB. I would like to try two modifications

• Make the font for LAB a lot thinner. So, more like \fat{BIAS}\thin{LAB}. I still like the sans-serif letters.
• Add the logo in front of BIASLAB. For now, using a png is fine, later perhaps we can make a font file for our logo, see #8.

I think it is important to make the frontpage of biaslab.org attractive, ie, less text more images. I suggest that we upgrade the projects strip with an image for each project and less text. A bit more like this; https://www.cs.toronto.edu/~duvenaud/ , see Selected papers section. Later, if this works, we could extend this to the publications and blog sections. The idea is that each project, publication or blog gets an image, a bit of text and one or more buttons for more information.

I think a justified outlining of the three columns at the landing page may look a bit more stylized. Can we try that look?

Investigate the options for a sub-menu.

For instance, we want a menu item: Vacancies, with sub-items PhD, MSc projects, BSc projects.

I got an issue w SimpleHTTPServer, see below

The meet the team link at the landing page should forward to the members page.

Add an alumni sections to the members page. not on front page, only on the members page:
