Top AI institutions today

The ICLR conference (which is the top deep learning - specific conference (NIPS is larger, but more diffuse)) released their decisions for accepted/rejected papers, and someone made some nice plots that show where the current deep learning / AI research happens at. It's an imperfect measure because not every company might prioritize paper publications, but it's indicative. Here's a plot that shows the total number of papers (broken down by oral/poster/workshop/rejected) from any institution: Long story short, Google is dominating with 83 paper submissions. The academic institutions (Berkeley / Stanford / CMU / MIT) are next, in 20-30 ranges each. Just thought it was an interesting snapshot of where all the action is today.
