MIAPP workshop on differentiable and Probabilistic Programming
Vassil Vassilev
Dear all,
I am happy to announce that we are hosting a MIAPbP workshop on
the topic of "Differentiable and Probabilistic Programming in
Fundamental Physics". It will take place at the Technical
University of Munich in June 2023. The applications for the
workshop are open and if you are interested in differentiable
programming, automatic differentiation or probabilistic
programming, we would like to invite you to apply following the
link:
https://www.munich-iapbp.de/probabilistic-programming
The event format includes:
Residential Workshop
The idea is to have a "residential workshop" in which participants
spend an extended period of time in Munich to discuss, learn and
interact in a relaxed atmosphere. The program will be held
deliberately light-weight with 1-2 talks a day. The format expects
the participants to stay for 2 weeks (or more).
The format will offer you an office, a per-diem with family
support for your entire stay. In the application form you can
indicate which weeks work best for you and which weeks would be
doable. Once we have all applications
collected we will need to make a final selection of participants
in which we will try hard to accommodate the preferences of
everyone.
As this workshop spans multiple communities (from particle
physics, astronomy to computer science) and not everyone may be
familiar with such a format, please do not hesitate to contact us
with any concerns or questions.
3-Day Workshop: "The Road to Differentiable and Probabilistic
Programming in Fundamental Physics"
In addition to the residential format we will also host a 3-day
Workshop "The Road to Differentiable and Probabilistic Programming
in Fundamental Physics" in the days of 26-28 June 2023. If you
apply for the residential format you will automatically be
enrolled in the 3-day workshop.
The deadline for applying is in a week from now. If you are
interested in differentiable programming, automatic
differentiation or probabilistic programming we would be happy to
see you around!
Best,
Vassil, on behalf of the organizing committee
