Speakers
01
Abhijit Bose
Title: Welcome and Overview of Facebook AI Research
Abstract: Abhijit is an Engineering Manager on FAIR at Facebook's New York office and will give an overview of Facebook's AI Research team.
02
Lili Dworkin
Title: Sequential Parameter Tuning Experiments
Abstract: Both engineers and researchers are often faced with the problem of optimizing large parameter configurations. We've developed a platform that facilitates the process of running adaptive experiments to hone in on optimum configurations.
03
Wan-Yen Lo
Title: Pushing the Limit of Computer Vision Research
Abstract: In FAIR, our ambition is to solve AI, which can only be done by actively engaging with the research community. We publish our research findings, open-source the software we develop, and present at leading conferences. In this talk, we will share our recent and exciting progress in computer vision research made possible by our newly-released software, which we hope to foster future work worldwide.
04
Smriti Bhagat
Title: A Hierarchy of Hashtags
Abstract: Some hashtags are simple like #cat, but more often, they are complex abstractions of experiences, e.g., #fromwhereistand, #plantsmakepeoplehappy. We’ve developed algorithms for hierarchical representations of hashtags to study their semantic relatedness and gain a better understanding of the hashtag space.
05
Emily Dinan
Title: Grounding Dialogue in Knowledge
Abstract: In open-domain dialogue intelligent agents should exhibit the use of knowledge, however there are few convincing demonstrations of this to date. We collect a dialogue dataset grounded in knowledge and then design architectures capable of retrieving knowledge, reading and conditioning on it, and finally generating natural responses
