Carnegie Mellon UniversityMachine Learning Department
The Machine Learning Department is an academic department within Carnegie Mellon University’s School of Computer Science. It focuses on research and education in all areas of statistical machine learning.
The website contains information on their current research projects and the main academics working there. There is a news section, which is kept up-to-date, and details of seminars (both past and present.)
Journal of Machine Learning Research
The Journal of Machine Learning Research (JMLR) provides an international forum for the electronic and paper publication of scholarly articles in all areas of machine learning. All published papers are freely available to download online. There is detailed information for authors, news section and an email subscription facility. JMLR also has a “Open Source Software” section. The aim of this section is provide, in parallel to theoretical advances in machine learning, a venue for collection and dissemination of open source software. The submissions should be contributions related to implementations of non-trivial machine learning algorithms, toolboxes or even languages for scientific computing.
Machine Intelligence Competition
www.comp.leeds.ac.uk/chrisn/micomp/index.html
The BCS Machine Intelligence Prize is awarded for a live demonstration of “Progress Towards Machine Intelligence”. The panel are looking for a working system that is to be the most significant step forward using Machine Intelligence.
The site has an entry form for the competition, the deadline being 1 October 2008 and the competition itself is on the 10 December 2008 at the annual SGAI conference AI-2008 at Peterhouse College in Cambridge. There are details on what is required to enter the competition, guidelines and rules. There is also archive information on past winners available.
ICMI 2008: International Conference on Machine Intelligence
This is the website for the International Conference on Machine Intelligence which aims to bring together researchers, scientists, engineers, and scholar students to exchange new ideas and research results about all aspects of Machine Intelligence.
You can register online and find details about the conference’s Call For Papers. The website is basic and hard to navigate (there is not a link to take you back to the home page from the other sections). It also lacks the information and detail usually present on conference pages, on topics such as the daily programme of events, speakers, accommodation and travel.
