Machine Learning Group Meetings
Machine Learning Group Meetings - Fall 2021
We will discuss machine learning applications to different fields, in a way that is accessible to non-specialists. The goal of these meetings would be to learn about and discuss the latest, greatest ML innovations and their novel applications in different domains, in the hopes of cross-fertilizing new ideas and spurring new collaborations.
These will be held biweekly at 3pm, but we may adjust this depending on demand.
Zoom Link: TBA
