2021 Machine Learning day
On Thursday December 2, the Social Science Section of the Dutch Statistical Society will be hosting its 2021 Fall meeting (‘najaarbijeenkomst’) at University of Amsterdam, which takes the form of an afternoon symposium (starting at 13:15). The topic of this symposium will be
Machine Learning Day – How machine learning can help the social sciences
in which recent methodological developments relating to machine learning will be discussed, as well as their relevance for and application in the Social Sciences. During the symposium international experts on the topic – including prof. dr. Felix Wichmann from University of Tübingen – will share their thoughts and contributions on this topic with you, and there will be room for discussion. With machine learning becoming more and more prominent, we believe that the symposium will be of interest to researchers throughout the Social Sciences and hope to welcome you there. More details about the program of the symposium can be found on this website. The Symposium will be held in room Doelenzaal (Singel 425, Amsterdam).
