Subject: neural nets longitudinal data
 

Dear Michal,

thank you so much for organizing this great conference and the last session in particular - after 19:10 we were not able to submit questions or comments anymore... there was a question about neural nets for longituidnal data and both speakers did not seem to know: the AI community uses something called recurrent neural nets (RNN) for that; also see
