Week Ending 8.22.2021

RESEARCH WATCH: 8.22.2021

Over the past week, 1,029 new papers were published in "Computer Science".

The paper discussed most in the news over the past week was by a team at OpenAI: "Evaluating Large Language Models Trained on Code" by Mark Chen et al (Jul 2021), which was referenced 28 times, including in the article What to expect from OpenAI’s Codex API in Venturebeat. The paper author, Greg Brockman (OpenAI), was quoted saying "It could basically do any language task you would ask it. So the thing that was funny for us was to see that the applications that most captured people's imaginations, ones that most inspired people, were the programming applications, because we didn't make that model to be good at coding at all. And so we knew if we put in some effort we could probably make something happen."
Leading researcher Luc Van Gool (Computer Vision Laboratory) came out with "Deep Reparametrization of Multi-Frame Super-Resolution and Denoising".

This week was very active for "Computer Science - Artificial Intelligence", with 147 new papers.
