Critique of 2018 Turing Award for Drs. Bengio and Hinton and LeCun (people.idsia.ch)

Schmidhuber's critique has over 200 references. I have spent several hours on verifying them. It helped that I already knew many of his papers and earlier posts i.e. "Deep Learning: Our Miraculous Year 1990-1991" http://people.idsia.ch/~juergen/deep-learning-miraculous-yea... and "Critique of Honda Prize for Dr. Hinton" http://people.idsia.ch/~juergen/critique-honda-prize-hinton....

As far as I can tell, all of Schmidhuber's claims are correct. Apparently the post even went through some sort of peer review. He is thanking "several expert reviewers for useful comments."

Have a look at the astonishing Sec. XVII which lists eight of his direct priority disputes with Bengio and Hinton.

This is not a glorious chapter in the annals of the Turing award.
