Working Group on Statistical Learning (2008-2009)

The Working Group on Statistical Learning is a forum for researchers to present their research. The goal of the working group is to promote research and collaboration rather than to present a public lecture on finished work.

The working group sessions involve the presenter giving a 25 minute talk which is followed by 25 minutes of discussion.

If you are interested in presenting to the Working Group on Statistical Learning, please contact Brendan Murphy (brendan.murphy@ucd.ie) or Claire Gormley (claire.gormley@ucd.ie).

Talks take place in Room L550b in the James Joyce Library in UCD on Wednesdays at 13:00.
