Cornell gets a college of Computing and Information Science (and nine figures) news.cornell.edu/stories/2020/1…

Accepted papers for #AISTATS2021 aistats.org/aistats2021/ac…

Let me repeat the important part: A paper being in NeurIPS/ICML alone does not imply that it is a high quality paper. Corollary: if you are simply "counting papers" someone has in these conferences, you are getting a worthless signal. Read papers and judge what they actually do.

We will have a "Graduating Bits" poster session at EC 2023, where participants close to graduation (on either side) can present their research findings. We will accommodate as many requests as possible given the space limitations. docs.google.com/forms/d/16Ms0s…

We are organizing a Multi Agent RL summer school in Lausanne :) Looking forward for the talks by Panayotis Mertikopoulos, Julia Olkhovskaya, Kaiqing Zhang , Chi Jin , Ioannis Panageas , Caglar Gulcehre Giorgia Ramponi Dec 2@ELLISUnConf, Dec 3-7@NeurIPS and Maryam Kamgarpour !!

I ended up not going to Berkeley for grad school, but I gained a mentor for life on that visit day. I'll remember his zest for life, his appetite for theory, and the humor that inescapably bubbled out of him. A blurry pic of Luca and Ioannis Panageas at Singapore, Dec 2018.
