CFP: 2018 International Workshop on Parallel AI and Machine Learning
Algorithms (PAMLA'18)

to be jointly held with Australasian AI Conference (AI 2018) in Wellington

copy of CFP.

With more and more big data, parallel and distributed computing is
increasingly more demanding for AI and machine learning practitioners.
Taking advantage of parallel and distributed computing can increase the
speed of AI and machine learning algorithms, and solve a big data problem
with a feasible and better solution.

This workshop will bring together researchers in parallel and distributed
computing, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to discuss
state-of-the-art parallelization techniques for AI and machine learning
algorithms, identify critical big data and AI applications demanding
parallelization, and promote parallel and distributed computing among AI
practitioners and domain experts.
