Event Cameras
Rather then recording an image, event cameras use a logarithmic sensor to detect changes in brightness at each point.

Richter scale
Magnitudes are based on a #logarithmic scale, which means every whole number increase on the scale is actually a tenfold increase in magnitude.

9/10) Our model selection #algorithm is as follows:
Use α to filter out bad models and perform readout eval on a downstream task only on “good” models.
Our proposal decreases the #readout evals from #linear to #logarithmic growth in #configs in a fixed #compute budget setting. 🎉🥳
