I haven't heard of anyone talk about Hinton's capsule network concepts for some time. In 2017-18 it seemed exciting both because of Hinton but also because the pose/transformation sounded pretty reasonable. I don't know what would count as "explanation", but I'd be curious to hear any thoughts about why it seems they didn't really pan out. (Are there any tasks for which capsule methods are the best?)
