Workshop on Functional Inference and Machine Intelligence

The Workshop on Functional Inference and Machine Intelligence (FIMI) is an international workshop on machine learning and statistics, with a particular focus on theoretical and algorithmic aspects. It consists of invited talks and poster sessions, with topics including (but not limited):

  • Kernel Methods and Gaussian Processes in Machine Learning
  • Mathematical Analysis of Deep Learning
  • Probabilistic Machine Learning

The workshop will be held at EURECOM, Sophia Antipolis, France, from 17-19 February 2020.
