In my opinion, Yann LeCun is one of the top celebrities in ML/Neural Net research. His voice really has weight.

- jat850 14y agoDefinitely. At work today we were watching a video on Machine Learning by Andrew Ng and he made a number of references to LeCun's involvement the field, and listed him in the acknowledgements section of his talk. It has encouraged me to look into more of his areas of work. I signed up for Andrew's ML course (https://class.coursera.org/ml/lecture/preview https://class.coursera.org/ml/lecture/preview , start date is not announced yet). Really looking forward to it.
