[Lisa_seminaires] Fwd: IEEE/MITACS Seminar February 9, 2012: John Tsitsiklis, MIT

John Tsitsiklis is an international star in the area of optimization / decision-taking (with
some connections to reinforcement learning). He will give a talk on distributed
averaging algorithms which are closely connected to the kinds of algorithms presented
by John Langord on distributed machine learning at a recent talk also at McGill. I encourage you to go.
