Abstract

Thanks! I am an individual developer creating deep learning neural networks and this type of research, which is important for my work, would be inaccessible if were behind a paywall. Just this morning I have used over 25 papers from publicly-accessible resources like this and arXiv. This is a typical day for me. Were it not for these public resources my pace of development would slow 100 fold–I know this to be true becuase I did similar work pre-Internet and what I can now do in a morning would take days at the Stanford library, and I could only get away perhaps once a month to do it. The ability to download and electronically search openly accessible papers is a further massive multiplier on my productivity. Thanks again!
