MCML Workshop
3rd MCML Workshop on Causal Machine Learning
Organized by Our PI Stefan Feuerriegel and His Team
07.08.2024
11:00 am - 8:00 pm
LMU Munich, Professor-Huber-Platz 2, W201
Causal inference has become highly important in many fields, such as medicine or marketing, and has received increasing attention from researchers in machine learning in recent years. The MCML Workshop in Causal Machine Learning invites causal ML researchers to present their work. The workshop aims to bring together researchers from different fields to discuss possible interconnections between their work and foster future collaborations.
Participation
Participation is open to all MCML members as well as researchers from other institutions. To register for the workshop, please send an email to Maresa Schröder by 28.07.2024.
Research Presentation
Participants are invited to give a talk on their research work in a 20-minute presentation (+ 10-minute Q&A). As presentation slots are limited, we kindly ask interested participants to apply for a presentation with a title and abstract of the work via email to Stefan Feuerriegel by 21.07.2024. Presentations will be selected based on scientific quality but also diversity.
