"Proposal for Student Poster Program and Travel Scholarships 23rd International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML 2006)" PI: Rich A. Caruana Cornell University

This award provides funds to help subsidize travel and registration costs for selected students to attend and participate in the 23rd International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML 2006) to be held June 25-29, 2006 at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Students will be selected through an application process. Selected students will present results on their research projects in poster sessions that are integrated in the conference program. These sessions are designed to provide the students with feedback from senior researchers from the international machine learning community. Students will also have the opportunity to attend tutorials, especially on material not taught to them at their home institutions, and to hear invited talks and presentations on state-of-the-art research on machine learning. These activities will provide students with invaluable exposure to outside perspectives on their work at a critical time in their research and will contribute to the professional development of young scientists in the important field of machine learning.
