AI/ML Journal Club
Welcome to the AI/ML Journal Club. We aim to explore and discuss the foundational concepts of artificial intelligence and machine learning in a collaborative environment. Everyone, regardless of their expertise or background, is warmly welcomed.
We host a biweekly meeting “AI/ML Journal Club” beginning on January 23, 2024, from 9 AM to 10 AM (CT).
The Journal Club will be conducted in a hybrid mode. The physical meeting room is DRC I 7003.
