Most people from outside big labs and even many inside get this credit assignment wrong.
It’s worth doing a simple thought experiment:
It’s may
We are very proud to co-organize open participation competition inviting scientists from around the world on one of the deep learning problems that is still open:
One Layer Deeper is officially live!
The motivating idea is that some models just don’t want to learn. Most optimizer benchmarks ask how quickly you can train a given model, but baked into that question is the assumption that it can be trained (well) at all.
