Ku Leuven, where Prof. Tias Guns is teaching, is organizing the ACP (Association for Constraint Programming) Summer School on “Machine Learning for Constraint Programming”, from 10 to 14 July.
The summer school will have a mix of talks and hands-on lab sessions, given by experts in the integration of ML and constraint solving.
The expert that will be intervening will be: Hendrik Blockeel, Quentin Cappart, Ferdinando Fioretto, Tias Guns, Elias Khalil, Wouter Kool, Lars Kotthoff, Michele Lombardi, Dimos Tsouros and Yingqian Zhang.
Topics will range from introductory sessions to sessions on automated tuning, prediction-based solving, reinforcement learning for branching and solution approximation, decision-focused learning, constraint acquisition and more. Only basic ML/constraint knowledge is required to participate.
There will also be a poster session for participants to present their own work, and a small-groups hackathon to experiment and get feedback on integrations that they care about.

AI in the places where it's actually done, with little media hype and a lot of hard work.
Daniel Höller, Jörg Hoffmann, Marcel Steinmetz and our chief coordinator Sylvie Thiebaux are in the organizing committee of the upcoming third Workshop on Reliable Data-Driven Planning and Scheduling (RDDPS) that is being held within The International Conference on Automated Planning and Scheduling (ICAPS) the premier forum for researchers and practitioners in planning and scheduling.
The manufacturing use case is based on well-known scheduling and resource allocation and planning challenges and this use case has a number of special features that make the challenge much more complex. The use case has two applications: robust scheduling of resources and resource allocation for rack systems.
Online collaboration is working fine but sometimes meeting face to face is really a good thing. So we did it for the third time in KU Leuven.
