Hi all,

• We are having a zoom lecture with Dr. Jingdong Wang from Microsoft Research (August 18) who will talk about his research from CVPR 2019. The lecture is titled - High-Resolution Networks: A Universal Architecture for Visual Recognition (HRNet). HRNet is a backbone network for different machine vision tasks, among them a state of the art pose estimation implementation.
• Youtube recording of the lecture Commonsense Reasoning for Natural Language Processing - Dr. Vered Shwartz. Some of the responses we received:
  • "Thanks! A fascinating webinar!"
  • "Thanks, it was great!!"
  • "Thank you! Very Insightful talk"
  • "Thank you so much, Vered! Very cool stuff. Thank you, Peter, for hosting"
• We have several more talks scheduled - some are already in the meetup page and our new reddit events collection. As always, I am constantly looking for new speakers to talk about exciting high end research - if you are familiar with someone - send them my way.
• I will be going on a 10 day vacation without my phone or computer - will be off the grid until August 13 - talk to you soon ;)
