Schedule for Academic Year 2006-2007

Notes:

• Meetings will be held at 12:15 PM unless otherwise noted.
• PAIL typically meets every other Monday except for holidays during which there are no classes.
• If you wish to present at a PAIL meeting, please contact Rion Snow by sending e-mail to rion@cs.stanford.edu.
• You may speak about your own work, ideas you have been thinking of, an interesting paper you have read, notes from a conference you have attended, or anything else of general interest to the group and of probabilistic merit.
• Lunch will be served at the meeting and every effort will be made to offer vegan and vegetarian options.
• At least one option should not have bell peppers.
• If you are ordering food, plan for an attendance of around 44 people.

(PAIL is a joint meeting of the research groups of professors Koller, Manning, Ng, Shoham and Thrun.)
