There is also a call for help in these areas
Different starter kits
Scoring function (big thing)
Estimation of required training/testing statistics
Bits and pieces
ICLR Feb 17 arkiv 2-3 pages. Mayur working on it,
Confirmed talk @ IML workshop @ CERN Mar 20-22. Must nominate speaker https://indico.cern.ch/event/595059/overview

No news
Aris started working on dropout layer to measure uncertainty as suggested by Dustin/Stephan. Still trying to get it work.
Josh: also possible to use likelihood based loss-function where you add central-value and residual. Cfd Josh talk . Will present next week.
Mayur needs a reference solution to compare to his LSTM “filter”. Attempts to use pyKalman, using EM to learn the dynamics of the tracks have been frustrating. Paolo trying to write out Acts::KF prediction alongside simulated hits.
