Capsules are groups of neurons that represent discrete entities in different contexts. For example, a 4x4 pose matrix is a capsule representing a particular object in different orientations seen from different viewpoints. Similarly, a subword embedding can be seen as a capsule with vector shape representing a particular subword in different natural language contexts. More generally, a capsule can have any shape, but it always represents only one entity in some context. In certain new capsule-routing algorithms…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1710.09829/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

(For those here who don&amp;#x27;t know, Keno is listed as one of the authors of the paper, and works closely with Mike Innes, lead author and also lead developer of Zygote. Mike is also an active member of HN.) Second, let me bring up what I think is a significant issue. My perception is that most deep learning researchers and practitioners -- that includes me -- tend to iterate very rapidly over new ideas. We want to test ideas in code as quickly as possible, and in practice we will not invest the time and effort…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1710.09829/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

Systems researchers are doing an excellent job improving the performance of 5-year-old benchmarks, but gradually making it harder to explore innovative machine learning research ideas.

Funny thing, the idea of Capsule Networks (Hinton et al)[1, 2] seems to tackle some of these issues, though it&amp;#x27;s they&amp;#x27;re a bit young yet and more more work.

My guess is that one-pixel changes are going to do very little to alter pose information (though they will still alter the confidence of the feature existing), and so caps nets should be more robust here as well. Does anyone know if my intuition is correct?

His musings are usually on a distinctly symbolic level however, and though it is not my intention to defend a kind of results-only pragmatic approach, I do concern myself with strategies for progressively reaching better models of intelligence and their realization in contemporary hardware in particular. What, for instance, is your opinion about Hinton&amp;#x27;s recently published capsules idea? https://arxiv.org/abs/1710.09829 https://openreview.net/forum?id=HJWLfGWRb&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1710.09829/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

The paper however details their experiments on Cifar-10 and other datasets in the discussion section. They don&amp;#x27;t produce good enough results but the paper proposes certain hypotheses for the poorer performance and that it could be overcome in the future.

It is true for sure that absolute performance on MNIST isn&amp;#x27;t the most interesting thing in the world. But when introducing a new tool or technique being able to show competitive performance on MNIST is a good way to show that it isn&amp;#x27;t an entirely useless thing. I&amp;#x27;d note that recent Sabour, Frosst and Hinton paper[1] (where they finally got Hinton&amp;#x27;s capsules to work) spends most of the paper analyzing how it performs on MNIST, and only a short section on other datasets.
