During the 22nd week of this year (30 May - 3 June 2022), we had the honor to be part of the Benchmarked: Optimization Meets Machine Learning workshop held at the Lorentz center in Leiden, the Netherlands. The workshop was organized by some of the most renowned scientists from the field of optimisation and machine learning, Carola Doerr, Mike Preuss, Marc Schoenauer, Thomas Stützle, and Joaquin Vanschoren. The theme of the workshop was benchmarking at the intersection of machine learning and optimization, as this is a very important yet generally overlooked subject. It was also a perfect occasion for bringing together the brightest minds in the field to discuss the topic. We, as beginning PhD students, were very lucky to participate in this prestigious workshop and it gave us the opportunity to meet many colleagues in real life for the first time. In this post we'd like to take you along through an educational and very fun week. |
