The 19th Workshop for Women in Machine Learning (WiML) will be co-located with NeurIPS 2024 in Vancouver, BC, Canada.

The WiML workshop 2024 will be held in person on December 10th with invited speakers, oral presentations, and posters. The event brings together members of the academic and industry research landscape for an opportunity to connect and exchange ideas, and learn from each other. There will be a mentoring session to discuss current research trends and career choices in machine learning. Underrepresented minorities and undergraduates interested in pursuing machine learning research are encouraged to participate. All presenters should be women or non-binary, and all genders are invited to attend.

With the booming research in artificial intelligence, the community is welcoming every day many newcomers. A lack of mentoring and inclusive environment becomes gradually significant. Our goal is to welcome new researchers in the community and provide them with some guidance to contribute to Machine Learning research fully and effectively.

Be part of the first ever neurodiversity workshop at Neurips, led by our Foundation's scientific committee. including current and/or prior representation from: NIH, IEEE, JP Morgan Chase Faculty Research, Black Tech Angel Fund, Jackie Robinson Foundation, Princeton University (as profiled in The Economist], MIT, Stanford, UPenn, Duke, MSU, Wayma, LATAM, Microsoft, Delta & Macy's. Four invited talks (including presenters from the Board of the Special Olympics and Amazon in London) will present on leading research assisting the neurodiverse community. All are welcome to attend; workshop encourages attendees to bring their own lunch.

What is Bridging the Future?

The Neural Information Processing Systems Foundation solicited proposals in 2023 to support broadening participation activities in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Activities were geared toward any age group or educational level, from grade school to senior faculty. Of particular interest are workshops, programs, and web-based materials aimed at improving the training of young researchers. Activities with the potential for broadening representation and inclusion in the field, high impact, and reach are prioritized, as will activities that can demonstrate alignment with the goals of the Neural Information Processing Systems Foundation. Funding amounts may vary depending on goals and potential impact, with a target maximum of $$50,000.

When is Bridging the Future?

Three applications were granted: Indigenous AI, WiML, and Global South AI. They will be presenting their work on Thursday, December 12 at 7:30 pm in room East MR 16. Join us to learn about their ongoing project to better support their communities and the world.
Light snacks and drinks will be served.

We will list the speakers and titles and start time for each group when we have more information.

The 3rd Muslim in Machine Learning (Muslim in ML) Workshop will be co-located with NeurIPS 2024 in Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Scheduled for December 10th, the Muslim in ML Workshop will showcase an inspiring program featuring invited talks, oral presentations, and poster sessions. This event provides a vibrant platform for researchers, practitioners, and students from the Muslim community to connect, exchange ideas, and foster collaborations in the field of machine learning. The workshop aims to celebrate and amplify the contributions of Muslim individuals in machine learning while promoting inclusivity and community engagement. While the workshop highlights contributions from Muslim individuals, people of all backgrounds and faiths are welcome to attend.

Indigenous In AI’s vision is to build an international community of Native, Aboriginal, and First Nations who will collectively transform their home communities with advanced technology. By elevating the voices of Indigenous ML researchers we will inspire future, impactful, community-centered work, and will foster a community of capacity in the fields of computer science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence.

The workshop is a one-day event with invited speakers, oral presentations, and posters. The event brings together faculty, graduate students, research scientists, and engineers for an opportunity to connect and exchange ideas. There will be a panel discussion and a mentoring session to discuss current research trends and career choices in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. While all presenters will identify primarily as LatinX, all are invited to attend.

Get ready for an inspiring experience. It’s definitely getting ready for you. The 8th Black in AI Workshop will be held co-located with NeurIPS 2024. The workshop will feature invited talks from prominent researchers and practitioners, a poster session, and a startups showcase. We invite all members of the AI community to attend the workshop.

Workshop starts from 12PM to 3PM
