Workshop on Algorithmic Challenges in Machine Learning

January 7-9, 2015
University of California, San Diego



With the ubiquity of big data, there has been a rise in interest in machine learning and data-based applications. This workshop aims to bring together theoretical computer scientists interested in machine learning with theoretically-inclined machine learning researchers to discuss challenges and opportunities at the intersection of these two fields. The workshop will cover a variety of topics such as spectral learning, online learning, bandits, sparsity, and unsupervised methods. Talks will consist of both survey talks and more specialized technical talks. We will also have allocated time for collaboration and informal discussions.
