Hi Gang, Following tradition, we will begin our Tea Talks of 2012 with a best-of-NIPS series. If you went to NIPS2011 you are *strongly encouraged* to present a paper. Talks should be about 20 minutes long (3 per Tea Talk). Please try to pick a paper that you feel will be relevant and interesting to our group. If you are unsure about the suitability of a paper, you are encouraged to talk to Yoshua, Pascal or me (Aaron) for advice. Sign up on the Google doc: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0As6zk-mwfSMQdDdlNHdtZExxNjBYaXB... Also, those who sign up for next week will have my sincere gratitude. Cheers, Aaron -- Aaron C. Courville Département d’Informatique et de recherche opérationnelle Université de Montréal email:Aaron.Courville@gmail.com
