A paper I enjoyed reading recently: Inverse problems in spaces of measures, Bredies, Pikkarainen. Introduces a Frank Wolfe algorithm with non convex improvement to solve infinite dimensional optimization over measures. A must read. https://t.co/SgDssJFb1N
A paper I enjoyed reading recently: Breaking the Curse of Dimensionality with Convex Neural Networks, @BachFrancis (fig by @LenaicCsl ). Frames training of sparse 1 hidden layer MLP as optimization over measures, very inspiring. https://t.co/dnPZJvuhgF
New paper by my student @WehenkelAntoine: Unconstrained Monotonic Neural Networks! https://t.co/3bWLj8ck0l In this work, we show how to make use of free-form neural networks to model arbitrary monotonic functions and derive a new autoregressive flow.
@fhuszar This @SimonsInstitute 'Boot Camp' has some really insightful talks/surveys about generalization, including the effect of batch_size on generalization https://t.co/k8LRfq8PfK
Second post in the Mutual Information series: this time I address the notorious Formal Limitations paper and show how it manifests itself in different bounds.

Recently, I've been thinking about the Mutual Information and ways to estimate it. I'd like to share some of my thoughts and start with suggesting some novel / overlooked ways to estimate the MI.

MLPerf 0.6 is out! Training speed on a single DGX-2 improved up to 1.8X over 7 months ago, and scaling efficiency to many nodes is markedly better.
The V100 GPU, 2 years after intro, is still the fastest and most general processor for deep learning.

An amazing new project from @bearpelican was just released: https://t.co/DBov6sZTVS . A beautiful design; you can auto-generate a melody from chords, chords from a melody, and more.
It's technically brilliant, combining BERT, seq2seq, and Transformer XL

Here’s how we trained an 8.3B parameter GPT-2. We alternate row- and column- partitioning in the Transformer in order to remove synchronization and use hybrid model/data parallelism. 15 PFlops sustained on 512 GPUs. Details and code: https://t.co/7eXA6r15yX
We are excited to release Behaviour Suite for Reinforcement Learning, or ‘bsuite’ – a collection of carefully-designed experiments that investigate core capabilities of RL agents

@fhuszar a good ol' read in that regard from @jessejdavis1

they are very correlated but PR-AuC provides more information when the dataset is very unbalanced
Oldies but Goldies: D. Donoho, Compressed sensing, 2004. Introduced (jointly with Candes, Romberg, Tao) the compressed sensing idea. https://t.co/Vz1PCMEifk
Gradient descent on particles’ positions (Langrangian) is equivalent to an advection linear PDE on the density of particles (Eulerian). https://t.co/lHYMjNfyZt
