Background and Motivation

During the past decade, machine learning researches in China have been growing in a blooming way. This is witnessed by the increasing number of works appeared in major machine learning related conferences and journals, and also numerous successful applications of machine learning techniques in major Chinese high-tech companies such as Huawei, Tencent, Baidu, Alibaba, etc. There are also many domestic machine learning conferences regularly held in China which attract a significant number of participants, such as the biennial Chinese Conference on Machine Learning, the annual Chinese Workshop on Machine Learning and Applications, the annual Chinese Vision and Learning Seminar, etc.

To take full advantage of the opportunity that ACML is to be held in Beijing, a dedicated full-day workshop for machine learning researchers and practitioners in China is organized. This workshop would be a great chance for sharing ideas and expertise among interested participants, encouraging students and junior researchers to get suggestions and advices from senior experts, and also fostering connections and possible collaborations between Chinese and International machine learning communities.
