Giving a talk at Montreal Machine Learning meetup group would be a great exposure to your work during the evening of the event as well as in front of a global audience thanks to the YouTube videos that will be prepared for each talk and tutorial (on a best-effort basis). It’s also a fantastic opportunity to get feedback on your work from fellow ML devs during the following networking/brainstorming session.

Criteria for talks/tutorials

Talks

• Duration: 10-25 minutes each
• There is no restriction regarding the topic as long as it clearly relates to Data Science, i.e., proprietary products and services and related are welcome; specifically, the talk can be:

  • an academic paper
  • an interesting work you’ve done as a hobby

Tutorial

• Practical, industry-oriented presentation or tutorial
