AI for Meta Science
This workshop will focus on its potential use beyond primary scientific data analysis pipelines, hence the "meta" in AI for meta-science.
Institut PascalThis workshop is mainly funded by AISSAI, CNRS's interdisciplinary centre for AI, and is hosted by Institut Pascal, Université Paris-Saclay.
The workshop is structured to favour discussions. Each theme will be covered in half a day to a full day, featuring 45-minute keynote talks and a series of short contributed talks, with ample time for discussion, which is well-suited to Institut Pascal. Each participant will have a desk in shared offices with access to meeting rooms (and, of course, free coffee machines) and will be provided with lunches, a workshop dinner on Thursday, and additional social events.
Attendance is limited to 66 scientists, by invitation or upon application till 23rd September (menu on the left); applications will be evaluated based on applicants’ expertise in at least one of the topics covered, as well as the goal of ensuring a diverse group of participants. Young researchers are especially encouraged to apply.
Two hackathons will be run in parallel for two half-days. The call for hackathon proposals is open (see menu on the left) till 30th September. Accommodation and travel expenses will be provided for up to two organisers per hackathon. The hackathons will have defined inputs, deliverables and a procedure (what participants are supposed to do). A hackathon could be a meta-hackathon, a hackathon to define a hackathon, for example, a hackathon to lay out a scientific competition with a dataset, a platform and a figure of merit.
