Machine Learning Street Talk (MLST)6 Des 2020

#032- Simon Kornblith / GoogleAI - SimCLR and Paper Haul!

This week Dr. Tim Scarfe, Sayak Paul and Yannic Kilcher speak with Dr. Simon Kornblith from Google Brain (Ph.D from MIT). Simon is trying to understand how neural nets do what they do. Simon was the second author on the seminal Google AI SimCLR paper. We also cover "Do Wide and Deep Networks learn the same things?", "Whats in a Loss function for Image Classification?", and "Big Self-supervised models are strong semi-supervised learners". Simon used to be a neuroscientist and also gives us the story of his unique journey into ML.
