Hi all,
Please update the bias data name when running the script. The correct arguments are the followings
| ws_PE | arch_PE.yaml | shape0.yaml | N0_1.yaml | shape0_bias.npy | shape0_density_100.npy | shape0_density_100.npy | stats |
| ws_PE | arch_PE.yaml | shape1.yaml | N0_1.yaml | shape1_bias.npy | shape1_density_100.npy | shape1_density_100.npy | stats |

Papers have been assigned (check assignment ASAP!)
Dear Deep Learning Hardware 2019 Program Committee,We have now completed the paper assignments for the review so that you get a full month(!) to do the paper reviews. Please carefully read instructions below.
** Please log in to your account to make sure that you have been assigned 8 papers (3 cores, 5 extended) and that no conflicts have been violated. If there are any issues, please let us know before midnight tomorrow (Saturday, March 23). We will freeze the review assignments beginning Sunday, March 24 at noon so that everyone can begin their reviews.******
Each of your have been assigned eight papers in total:
* Three papers as core. You'll notice a number '1'
listed next to those papers. You are expected to submit written
reviews for these papers by April 21 (midnight!), so that we can
begin discussion April 22. Instructions on the expectations for the
reviews and how they will be graded are described in the paper
review handout that has been upload to stellar.
* You will have been assigned as discussion lead for one of these
three papers. See lead assignment at
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1L4gLBZBe750ffEoDyPDrm8bp4S8PaKEuBUHhzR_Itxk/edit?usp=sharing
You are expected to upload a slide to stellar that summarizes the
key ideas of the paper to aid in the discussion. This slide is also
due April 21 by midnight.
* You have been assigned five additional papers (labeled with a
'2' in your list of papers) to review where you are
expected to participate in the class discussion and vote on these
papers. You do not need to submit written reviews for these papers,
however you may choose to do so if you feel it helps with
documenting your understanding of the paper.
Finally, if you have any questions at all, please reach out to the 6.888 staff. Happy reviewing!
Best regards,
