I'm joining Facebook!

I'm happy to announce that I am joining Facebook's new AI Group, a research laboratory with the long term goal of making major advances in the field. I'll be working alongside Yann LeCun, who will be leading the Group (Link). Facebook first announced the AI Group in September to work on problems in deep learning, machine learning and computer vision.

I will be working part time at Facebook until May, when my sabbatical starts and then I will be based full time at Facebook's new office at Astor Place, one block away from NYU. After my sabbatical, I will continue to work both at Facebook and NYU.

Facebook is building the AI Group here in New York, in Menlo Park and in London. This is an exciting time for the field, and I'm looking forward to getting started.
