6th Machine Learning and AI in Bio(Chemical) Engineering Conference

06-07th July 2023
 
In person-only event

Poster submission open until
June
16th

Machine Learning and AI in Bio(Chemical) Engineering Conference series is co-organised by research groups of the Universities of Cambridge, Leeds, Glasgow, Southampton, and University College London. This series of conferences grew from two collaborative research projects on robotics and automation in chemical development. The conference will feature keynote and invited lectures from global champions of research in ML/AI in chemistry/(bio)chemical engineering, and regular lectures selected from the community submissions.

Workshop

Rapid Predictive Modeling without Having to Write Code

Volker Kraft, PhD, JMP Principal Academic Ambassador 

Phil Kay, PhD, JMP Learning Manager

JMP Pro is an industry-standard software for predictive modeling. In fields like chemistry & biotech, pharma, manufacturing or environment & sustainability, modern modeling methods and powerful tools help engineers and scientists to make statistical discoveries from data – without the need to write any line of code. 

During this hands-on workshop you will learn how to:

  • build better and more useful models with modern predictive modeling techniques, such as regression, neural networks, decision trees, support vector machines, k nearest neighbors, and more;

  • fit multiple models automatically and select the best-performing model with model screening;

  • apply cross-validation techniques to avoid overfitting; 

  • use the Prediction Profiler to improve model understanding and make predictions;

  • deploy models both inside and outside of JMP (e.g., in Python)

Abstract Submissions

Abstract Submission

Poster deadline: 16th June/2023

The 6th International Conference on Machine Learning and AI in (bio)Chemical Engineering will take place on July 06-07, 2023. We are requesting abstracts for posters and talks related to this theme. Potential topics/submissions include but are not limited to:

  • Software implementations of key methods

  • Experimental case studies using ML

  • Method development, particularly those that simplify user experience

  • Benchmarking of ML methods

 

Abstracts may be up to 400 words and optionally include explanatory figures. We emphasise that abstracts should include sufficient introduction for newcomers.
