Hi! My name is Miko.
I started programming at the age of 10. I was so passionate…

Miko Mynttinen gefällt dasMiko Mynttinen gefällt dasExcited to share that pplx-embed has been accepted to the #ACL2026 Industry Track as an oral presentation! 🎉 We'll also be presenting this work at the MemAgents workshop at #ICLR2026 — come find us! 🇧🇷 pplx-embed is a family of multilingual embedding models built on a diffusion-pretrained backbone for web-scale retrieval. We achieve competitive results on MTEB and MIRACL, a new record on ConTEB, and strong performance on our internal evaluation suite with 4 to 8 times less storage consumption. Joint work with Markus Krimmel, Louis Milliken, Wang Bo, maksim gaiduk and Denis Bykov. 📄 https://lnkd.in/dJjbsptH P.S. We're hiring interns and full-time members — ping me if you're into training or evaluating embeddings! ##ICLR2026 #ACL2026 #Embeddings #MachineLearning #Perplexity #Hiring

Miko Mynttinen gefällt dasMiko Mynttinen gefällt dasSkim or Sink The past 1.5 years have been brutal. The pace and frequency of world-changing developments in the LLM space, agents, investors, cryptocrashes, wars, societal unrest, the rise and rise of living expenses, the end of the monetary order as we know it and not in the last place the performance of AFC Ajax. They’re anxiety-inducing, confusing, paradigm shattering but most of all, they’re relentless. Not checking X/Twitter for a day or two makes you feel like you’re missing tHe NeXt bIG tHiNG. It got me thinking about whether all of this is real, and not in the sense of whether we’re living in a simulation. Upon reflection I realized that this raises the wrong question. Just like the truth, the question is not whether it’s real, but how much of it is and if/how it applies to you. This incessant stream of news, tweets, posts is leading us to a situation in which we’re constantly skimming topics and developments, because if something doesn’t exist in the now it feels like it doesn’t hold value. (Hype-cycle compression anyone?) The analogy that comes to mind is that of a stone skimming the surface. If the stone runs out of energy it quickly sinks into oblivion to the bottom of the lake. Ironically this drive to constantly keep up also impairs us from going beyond the surface (hey - the analogy holds up). So too this applies to all the professionals, freelancers, associates, investors, social personas out there. So many of them want to break the news, but it doesn’t lead to value. It’s barely scratching the surface. So what I try to tell myself occasionally is to forget the tweets and posts. Trust the world will keep spinning and go towards what I gravitate towards and actually let myself sink a little. I might find some depth behind all the hype.

Miko Mynttinen gefällt dasMiko Mynttinen gefällt dasUncovering browser engine performance cliffs using event-burst simulation I recently experimented with a new way to stress-test Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox by using PowerShell to simulate thousands of mouse clicks and dispatch them in one burst. I apply the mouseclicks to UI elements of the Browser - like native Datepicker and Picture-in-Picture. The result in Mozilla Firefox was detection of a leak in event listeners in Datepicker and excess memory churn in TaskController in . 🌐 Google Chrome showed 5GB+ memory use and 5 minute+ hang in Datepicker/Filepicker, and PiP. And are as yet unaddressed. Huge credit to the Mozilla Firefox engineers (Emilio Cobos Álvarez, Olli Pettay, Jens Stutte) for their prompt and thorough response — the triage and fixes landed almost immediately after I reported. Will be interesting to see what other perf issues can be discovered from this approach. https://lnkd.in/gTxeGxvE https://lnkd.in/gN8e2Mdd https://lnkd.in/g4cbq8R8 https://lnkd.in/g5_FTBnz #Firefox #Chrome #WebPerf

Miko Mynttinen gefällt dasMiko Mynttinen gefällt dasThrilled to share highlights from #CLEF2025 in Madrid, Spain with the Data Science @ GT Applied Research Competition (ARC) student group in our fourth year! Our paper, "Distilling Spectrograms into Tokens: Fast and Lightweight Bioacoustic Classification for BirdCLEF+ 2025," co-authored with Murilo Gustineli and Adrian Cheung, won the BirdCLEF Best Working Notes award and a $2,500 prize. Our solution introduces a lightweight pipeline that tokenizes audio spectrograms with skip-gram embeddings for efficient, multilabel birdcall classification. It's a fast approach with potential for future improvements. Paper link: https://lnkd.in/gphaveag Winner announcement: https://lnkd.in/gSnfKVnm In addition to this LifeCLEF lab task, I also participated in Touche, LongEval, and eRisk, and learned more about SOTA information retrieval techniques and research problems. Together, DS@GT ARC had a resounding, successful effort in the 2025 cycle. This year, our collaboration yielded 44 contributing authors, 22 accepted working notes, and representation from all 14 conference labs. Thanks to everyone who represented DS@GT and Georgia Tech in Madrid: Ayush Parikh, Jason Kahei Tam, David Guecha, Dionne B., Jeanette Schofield, Bina Patel, Karishma Thakrar, Bishoy Tawfik, Maximilian Heil, Shashank Verma, and Aleksandar Pramov, PhD. I enjoyed our time in Madrid, getting to know everyone, and supporting one another through our presentations. Special thanks to the CLEF organizers, Georgia Tech OMSCS research fund, Partnership for an Advanced Computing Environment (PACE), and to my co-lead, Murilo Gustineli, for a successful year. It has been a privilege to start and grow this group over the last four years, and I am excited to see how it continues to evolve under Murilo's leadership. Hope to see folks next year in Jena, Germany!

Miko Mynttinen gefällt dasMiko Mynttinen gefällt dasI got out! A bit overdue, but I am excited to share that I have graduated from Georgia Institute of Technology with a Master of Science in Computer Science (https://lnkd.in/gk6JJ2EK). It has been a rewarding journey, seven years since my first graduate class and three years in this program. Beyond the coursework, I am particularly proud of these experiences: Robotics Research: I had the opportunity to work with Prof. Patricio Vela in the AutoBots VIP, where I had my first introduction to robotics, vision-based manipulation, and ROS. My main project involved upgrading, containerizing, and creating an end-to-end simulation for Handy, the lab manipulator (https://lnkd.in/gDfZZkiX). International Study & Research: I spent a semester on sabbatical from Planet at Georgia Tech-Europe in Metz, France. There, I studied mobile robotics, conducted original research (https://lnkd.in/gbtmZfT7), and practiced French, Judo, and BJJ with local clubs. It was a pleasure to meet so many different people during my time there. Also, shoutout to Prof. Cédric Pradalier for being an excellent professor. Club Leadership: As founder of the Applied Research Competition student group in Data Science @ GT, we published over 30 peer-reviewed workshop papers in machine learning and information retrieval over four years (https://dsgt-arc.org). It's been wild to see the hockey-stick growth for myself. Thank you to my 2024 co-lead, Murilo Gustineli, for being an incredible partner in this endeavor. I am grateful for the experiences and collaborations over the past few years and am looking forward to applying what I've learned. But most importantly, I can't wait to enjoy the freed-up evenings and weekends.Anthony Miyaguchi Receives Degree From Georgia TechAnthony Miyaguchi Receives Degree From Georgia Tech
