Good luck to Amii Fellow Patrick Pilarski and BLINC Lab as they head to @cybathlon! The team will compete with their AI-powered prosthetic limb that uses continual learning to adapt and evolve based on user needs. Learn more about their work: https://t.co/XqzYIstznw

Why do deep learning AI models struggle with long-term continual learning? In a new @Nature paper, Amii researchers reveal the problem of Loss of Plasticity and why it had to be addressed to build AI that works in the real world: https://t.co/laWDMPnuXy #AI #ContinualLearning

Now, as an Assistant Professor, I'll be growing my group more at the University of Alberta.

I'll continue to focus on ML and, specifically, reinforcement learning.

I'll be hiring PhD and thesis-based MSc students. I'm also hiring a postdoc now. See post: https://t.co/CpSSQUgDO2
