Machine Learning Paper Discussion: CoordConv

NOTE: Postponing to 1/30 due to the storm forecasted tonight. Stay warm and safe everyone!

Hey Everyone,

Let's kick off the new year with a discussion! Just like last time, we will be located at the zesty.ai offices near Jack London Square.

We'll host a discussion of the following paper:

An intriguing failing of convolutional neural networks
and the CoordConv solution
(https://arxiv.org/pdf/1807.03247.pdf) - Rosanne Liu, Joel Lehman, Piero Molino, Felipe Petroski Such, Eric Frank, Alex Sergeev, and Jason Yosinski (2018)

The meetup will begin with a presentation of the key points of the paper, followed by a group discussion. Reading is not strictly required, but it will be necessary to contribute to the discussion.

We look forward to seeing you all there! Please only RSVP if you plan on attending!
