From the 4th to 12th of July, I was in the city of Porto, Portugal for the 7th edition of the summer school on Vision Understanding and Machine Intelligence (VISUM). The summer school brings together students and researchers with interest in computer vision and machine intelligence. The program was packed with lectures, group hackathon, hands-on

If there’s one AI summer school to look out for in 2020, it will be the Probabilistic Artificial Intelligence (ProbAI) school.

As a GRA I am not required in my contract to teach so it was an optional module but I thought it

My previous post was about my poster presentation at the Madrid Machine Learning Summer School. Here, I will be writing about the social side of the experience which includes the walking tours, databeers and dinner night. I will also be sharing my observations about the city of Madrid, the people and the culture. Walking tour to Sol
