Our researchers had a great time at @icmlconf last week, and we've learned a thing or two to bring back to UBC!
Poster with iPad animations almost ready for poster session with @willarvey @frankdonaldwood @PLAIGroup. Hopefully it will stick...
We are excited to do our part to elevate the machine learning community with @UBC_CS and inspire the next generation of AI researchers!
.@UBC_CS to launch advanced machine learning training network.

Tomorrow, I will give a tutorial on "ML from a Bayesian Perspective" at ACML 2021.
acml-conf.org/2021/school/sc…
I also wrote a summary for the slides, explaining why a Bayesian perspective is essential for machine learners emtiyaz.github.io/papers/MLf…

Nice! Shameless plug: A Clojure compiler implementation for the FOPPL language described in this book purposes can be found here github.com/plai-group/daphne (used also by @frankdonaldwood at @PLAIGroup for teaching).
