BeNeRL Workshop

Belgium-Netherlands workshop on Reinforcement Learning (BeNeRL) 2024

Monday June 10, 2024

@ Amsterdam

• The BeNeRL is an informal one-day workshop, intended to bring together reinforcement learning researchers from the Belgium-Netherlands region.

• The programme consists of several invited speakers from the region and a poster session to facilitate interaction between participants.

• We especially invite PhD students to contribute a poster, since it will likely get you in touch with other researchers with similar interest.

• The workshop includes food throughout the day. 

• The workshop is free of charge (sponsored by NWO and ELLIS in collaboration with TU Eindhoven, University of Amsterdam and VU Amsterdam).

Date: Monday June 10, 9.00-18.00
