AI3SD Machine Learning for Chemistry Training Workshop & Hackathon

AI4SD

<H2 CLASS="SCXW213659094">Description </H2>
<DIV CLASS="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW213659094">
This training workshop and hackathon is intended to help upskill scientists in AI and Machine Learning techniques for Chemistry and provide some challenges to test out their new skills. This event will run over two days with lunch and dinner provided on day 1 and lunch provided on day 2. Day 1 will begin with some training courses to add to or refresh your knowledge, followed by creating your teams and choosing which challenge you wish to address! There will be mentors on hand to provide advice during the hacking, and there will be pizza provided and the use of the wide lane facilities until 8pm. On day 2, the morning will be spent hacking and after lunch the groups will come together to present their work!

<H2 CLASS="Paragraph SCXW213659094">FAQs</H2>
1. Who should attend?  Anyone with an interest in any of the training, challenges or interested in tackling their own challenge in a hackathon style environment. We welcome members of academia or industry working in or with an interest in any of the science, mathematics or machine learning techniques required for these challenges. Feel free to come as a team, or come by yourself and we will find you a team to work with. 
2. What will I get out of it?  You will gain useful skills from the training sources, hear about a range of interesting useful data sources and challenges, and have the opportunity to take part in a hackathon in a supportive team environment with mentors and helpers. You will have the opportunity to work with other likeminded people from different academic and industrial backgrounds. There will be lunch and dinner provided on day 1, and lunch on day 2, with multiple coffee breaks throughout the day.  
3. What are the aims of the training session / hackathon?  The aims of this session are to skill you up on data science and machine learning techniques and given you the opportunity to try these new skills out during the hackathon.
