************ Call for Papers: NIPS IEVDL 2017 **************
The NIPS 2017 Workshop: Interpreting, Explaining and Visualizing Deep Learning - Now what ? aims to review recent techniques and establish new theoretical foundations for interpreting and understanding deep learning models. However, it will not stop at the methodological level, but also address the "now what?" question, where we aim to take the next step by exploring and extending practical usefulness. The workshop will have speakers from various application domains (computer vision, NLP, neuroscience, medicine), it will provide an opportunity for participants to learn from each other and initiate new interdisciplinary collaborations.
