Language EnglishPresentation at Facebook's Faculty Summit
Marcello Federico attended the Facebook Faculty Summit that was held in London on 22 Sept 2015. About 100 people were invited to the meeting, including FB people from USA and Europe and externals from Europe. The meeting was organised in four separate tracks: machine learning, security, programming languages, and systems. The purpose of the meeting was to update participants about FB's research agenda and activities and to foster collaborations with the invited researchers. MF gave a short presentation about the ideas developed in MateCat and the MMT project.
