Machine learning and deep learning fundamentals
Date: 1 - 2 April 2026
Language of instruction: English
Machine learning and deep learning are transforming research by enabling data-driven discoveries and predictive modeling. For many researchers, these techniques can unlock new insights from complex datasets, but getting started can feel overwhelming. This two-day workshop is designed for researchers with little or no prior experience in machine learning who want to apply these methods in their own work.
