The Engineering Behind the World’s Most Advanced Video AI

Josh Tobin is a researcher working at the intersection of machine learning and robotics. His research focuses on applying deep reinforcement learning, generative models, and synthetic data to problems in robotic perception and control. Additionally, he co-organizes a machine learning training program for engineers to learn about production-ready deep learning called Full Stack Deep Learning. https://fullstackdeeplearning.com/ Josh did his PhD in Computer Science at UC Berkeley advised by Pieter Abbeel and was a research scientist at OpenAI for 3 years during his PhD. Finally, Josh created this amazing field guide on troubleshooting deep neural networks: http://josh-tobin.com/assets/pdf/troubleshooting-deep-neural-networks-01-19.pdf Follow Josh on twitter: https://twitter.com/josh_tobin And on his website:http://josh-tobin.com/ Visit our podcasts homepage for transcripts and more episodes! www.wandb.com/podcast 🔊 Get our podcast on Youtube, Apple, and Spotify!
