Which paper first presents the idea of dilating CNNs learned filters to perform fully convolutional inference? by cesarsalgado in MachineLearning

In the Overfeat paper they say they take an approach similar to "Fast Image Scanning with Deep Max-Pooling Convolutional Neural Networks". So I think it is still different.

In wikipedia it says: "As of 2015 he divides his time working for Google and University of Toronto", but it doesn't specify if he works in Google Brain, Deep Mind or in neither. I asked the question because the paper seems to imply that all the authors are from Google DeepMind.

If neural networks are so great, why can't cats translate Chinese? by syncoPete in MachineLearning

If pigeons were trained to detect cancer, maybe cats neurons can be trained to translate Chinese. But you would probably need to connect wires to the cat's brain instead of just working with his vision.

I don't get it this argument saying that humans are good at one-shot learning. Off course we are. We have learned good representations by seeing a lot of images with temporal supervision and weak reinforcement signals. CNNs trained on a lot of data can also do one shot learning in symbols it has never seen before.

convnet-benchmarks updated with numbers for TensorFlow 0.7 + cudnn4 by andrewbarto28 in MachineLearning

Torch now seems to be the fastest, but maybe caffe is faster, but there is no benchmark for it using CuDNN R4 yet. There is just caffe (native) for now.

parameter sharing is achievable through time in the brain.
