Cat Detection Research Reception in Early Deep Learning Era
By
–
I was a (young) grad student when the Cat Detection work was published and publicized.
I don't think people thought it was a dead-end. But I can explain the general resentment for that result from what was an impressionable few months for me. People didn't really like the -
