Send a 2 page pdf, if interested, and note that we: widened submissions to be from anybody rather than students. set aside a larger fraction of time for contributed submissions. September 15 , there is a machine learning meetup , where I’ll be discussing terascale learning at AOL. September 16 , there is a CS&Econ; day at New York Academy of Sciences. This is not ML focused, but it’s easy to imagine interest. September 23 and later NIPS workshop submissions start coming due. As usual, there are too many good ones, so I won’t be able to attend all those that interest me. I do hope some workshop makers consider ICML this coming summer, as we are increasing to a 2 day format for you. Here are a few that interest me: Big Learning is about dealing with lots of data. Abstracts are due September 30 . The Bayes

2 0.25481468 472 hunch net-2012-08-27-NYAS ML 2012 and ICML 2013
Introduction: The New York Machine Learning Symposium is October 19 with a 2 page abstract deadline due September 13 via email with subject “Machine Learning Poster Submission” sent to physicalscience@nyas.org. Everyone is welcome to submit. Last year’s attendance was 246 and I expect more this year. The primary experiment for ICML 2013 is multiple paper submission deadlines with rolling review cycles. The key dates are October 1, December 15, and February 15. This is an attempt to shift ICML further towards a journal style review process and reduce peak load. The “not for proceedings” experiment from this year’s ICML is not continuing. Edit: Fixed second ICML deadline.

Introduction: On Sept 21, there is another machine learning meetup where I’ll be speaking. Although the topic is contextual bandits, I think of it as “the future of machine learning”. In particular, it’s all about how to learn in an interactive environment, such as for ad display, trading, news recommendation, etc… On Sept 24, abstracts for the New York Machine Learning Symposium are due. This is the largest Machine Learning event in the area, so it’s a great way to have a conversation with other people. On Oct 22, the NY ML Symposium actually happens. This year, we are expanding the spotlights, and trying to have more time for posters. In addition, we have a strong set of invited speakers: David Blei , Sanjoy Dasgupta , Tommi Jaakkola , and Yann LeCun . After the meeting, a late hackNY related event is planned where students and startups can meet. I’d also like to point out the related CS/Econ symposium as I have interests there as well.

Introduction: I will join Yahoo Research (in New York) after my contract ends at TTI-Chicago . The deciding reasons are: Yahoo is running into many hard learning problems. This is precisely the situation where basic research might hope to have the greatest impact. Yahoo Research understands research including publishing, conferences, etc… Yahoo Research is growing, so there is a chance I can help it grow well. Yahoo understands the internet, including (but not at all limited to) experimenting with research blogs. In the end, Yahoo Research seems like the place where I might have a chance to make the greatest difference. Yahoo (as a company) has made a strong bet on Yahoo Research. We-the-researchers all hope that bet will pay off, and this seems plausible. I’ll certainly have fun trying.
3 0.70674711 105 hunch net-2005-08-23-(Dis)similarities between academia and open source programmers
Introduction: Martin Pool and I recently discussed the similarities and differences between academia and open source programming. Similarities: Cost profile Research and programming share approximately the same cost profile: A large upfront effort is required to produce something useful, and then “anyone” can use it. (The “anyone” is not quite right for either group because only sufficiently technical people could use it.) Wealth profile A “wealthy” academic or open source programmer is someone who has contributed a lot to other people in research or programs. Much of academia is a “gift culture”: whoever gives the most is most respected. Problems Both academia and open source programming suffer from similar problems. Whether or not (and which) open source program is used are perhaps too-often personality driven rather than driven by capability or usefulness. Similar phenomena can happen in academia with respect to directions of research. Funding is often a problem for

Introduction: Geoff Gordon made an interesting presentation at the snowbird learning workshop discussing the use of no-regret algorithms for the use of several robot-related learning problems. There seems to be a draft here . This seems interesting in two ways: Drawback Removal One of the significant problems with these online algorithms is that they can’t cope with structure very easily. This drawback is addressed for certain structures. Experiments One criticism of such algorithms is that they are too “worst case”. Several experiments suggest that protecting yourself against this worst case does not necessarily incur a great loss.
5 0.68890887 104 hunch net-2005-08-22-Do you believe in induction?
Introduction: Foster Provost gave a talk at the ICML metalearning workshop on “metalearning” and the “no free lunch theorem” which seems worth summarizing. As a review: the no free lunch theorem is the most complicated way we know of to say that a bias is required in order to learn. The simplest way to see this is in a nonprobabilistic setting. If you are given examples of the form (x,y) and you wish to predict y from x then any prediction mechanism errs half the time in expectation over all sequences of examples. The proof of this is very simple: on every example a predictor must make some prediction and by symmetry over the set of sequences it will be wrong half the time and right half the time. The basic idea of this proof has been applied to many other settings. The simplistic interpretation of this theorem which many people jump to is “machine learning is dead” since there can be no single learning algorithm which can solve all learning problems. This is the wrong way to thi
