Applied Algorithms for Machine Learning: A Workshop on Future of Computation

June 10-12, 2024
Paris, France
https://aaforml.com

In this workshop, we present a series of talks on the intersection between applied algorithms and machine learning, two indispensable areas of future computation. We will cover a range of specific topics, including randomized and approximation algorithms; large-scale machine learning; distributed and federated learning; learning-augmented algorithms; algorithms for fairness and differential privacy; sketching algorithms; and adversarially robust learning. The workshop aims to bring together researchers from both fields to foster collaboration and exchange ideas.

DIMACS Tutorial on Fine-grained Complexity

July 15-19, 2024
DIMACS, New Jersey, USA
http://dimacs.rutgers.edu/events/details?eID=2764

Submission deadline: March 28, 2024
Registration deadline: March 25, 2024

DIMACS is organizing a tutorial in Fine-grained complexity in July 2024. The tutorial is primarily for graduate students working on topics in and around theoretical computer science (TCS) who are not already familiar with fine-grained complexity. Students who do not have access to an expert in fine-grained complexity at their institution and students working in other areas of TCS (i.e. not fine-grained complexity) who want to incorporate the fine-grained lens into their research will be prioritized for admission and financial support.

Workshop: Old Questions and New Directions in Theory of Clustering

March 4-6, 2024
UCSD
https://sites.google.com/view/clusteringinsandiego/

In this workshop, our primary goal is to reinvigorate collaboration between the approximation and computational geometry communities. We aim to delve deeper into understanding various popular clustering objectives, such as k-means, k-median, k-center, k-minsum, capacitated clustering, balanced clustering, correlation clustering, and k-diameter under the approximation lens.
