My student Kayo Yin needs your help. Her visa has been unnecessarily delayed, which would prevent her from coming to UC Berkeley to start her studies. Despite bringing all required documents, the @StateDept refused to process the visa and it could take months to re-process.

Totally agree! Anyone screening applications and any applicant thinking their CV is not representative of their skills/potentials, I think you might want to read the story of my own PhD application in this thread: 1/

Any document claiming an easy way to gauge grad school applicants needs to be challenged To wit: While 2 or 3 Unis in Iran are far more selective than others, the # of outstanding candidates far exceeds their enrollment. The given ranking is thus opinion not fact & is misleading

Large learning rates have been widely believed to be important to training deep models, but rarely investigated in theory. Our recent work arxiv.org/abs/2110.03677 studies Gradient Descent for matrix factorization problem and proves some intriguing results of large learning rates.
