On November 18,  Dr. Haggai Maron from the Technion will give a talk titled: Exploiting Symmetries for Learning in Deep Weight Spaces Abstract: This talk explores the emerging research direction that studies neural network weights as a novel data modality. We'll discuss recent advances in processing and analyzing raw weight matrices, which exhibit inherent symmetries ... Read more

On November 25,  Dr. Nir Weinberger from the Technion will give a talk titled: Statistical curriculum learning -- An elimination algorithm achieving the weak oracle risk Abstract: Curriculum Learning (CL) is a successful machine learning strategy that improves a learner’s performance by ordering the tasks according to difficulty, similarly to the way humans learn.  However, ...

On December 1 (Note this is Sunday),  Dr. Yehuda Dar from the Ben Gurion University will give a talk titled: Generalization in Overparameterized Machine Learning Abstract: Modern machine learning models are highly overparameterized (i.e., they are very complex with many more parameters than the number of training data examples); yet, these models often generalize extremely ...
