About
Welcome to the 5th issue of the Journal of Machine Learning Video Abstracts, published by Knowledge for All Foundation Ltd, London, with the goal of providing the legacy of the PASCAL2 Network of Excellence. The fifth issue is dedicated to presenting the spotlight presentations of the 2013 Neural Information Processing Systems (NIPS) Conference held in Lake Tahoe, Nevada, United States, on December 5-10.
The presentations were lengthened to five minutes for this year's conference with an allowance of 5 slides for each paper. Microsoft recorded and post-processed the recordings whereas the VideoLectures.NET team incorporated the slides into the videos.
