ICML brings together machine learning experts

The International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML) held its 41st event from July 21st to the 27th in Vienna, Austria. This renowned conference gathered professionals from a wide range of backgrounds, from academic and industrial researchers to entrepreneurs and engineers, who dedicate themselves to the advancement of the branch of AI known as machine learning.

It was at this premier event that SmallData researchers were able to feature their work. A research paper titled “Eureka-Moments in Transformers: Multi-Step Tasks Reveal Softmax Induced Optimization Problems“, authored by our doctoral researcher Jelena Bratulić and our PI Thomas Brox, among other researchers, was presented during one of the poster sessions.

Our PI Frank Hutter’s work was also present at the conference. He worked with our PI Tonio Ball on “CoordConformer: Heterogenous EEG datasets decoding using Transformers” which was presented at one of the workshops, authored three other papers that were presented during the poster sessions and, along with Jelena Bratulić, was part of the organizing committee for the workshop “1st ICML Workshop on In-Context Learning” which was featured on the closing day of the conference.

We congratulate them on their contribution to this prestigious event and look forward to their future developments in the field of machine learning!
