AutoML Seminar
Automated Machine Learning (short AutoML) automates the design decisions that go into building machine learning and agentic systems, making them more efficient, more robust and accessible to non-experts. This includes data preprocessing and feature engineering, model selection, hyperparameter optimization, neural architecture search, routing each task to the most suitable model or algorithm, and tabular foundation models such as TabPFN.
However, with the rising popularity of AutoML both in academia and industry, it also becomes increasingly harder to keep up with the latest work. The AutoML seminar is a platform to learn and discuss recent work in this field. In regular sessions we organize 40 minute talks by someone from the AutoML community followed by a 20 minute discussion. All content is free and open to anyone. If you are interested and want to join, please follow the steps listed below.

Become a Speaker
If you want to become a speaker, please send an email to automlseminar - at - gmail - dot - com or contact one of the organizers. We particularly invite junior researchers to present their work. Talks should:
- be interesting for an audience of AutoML experts
- be based on research published at a top-tier machine learning conference (ICML, NeurIPS, ICLR, AutoML Conf, etc.) or present an open-source library for the AutoML community.
We are not strict about publication: if you want to present work that has not been published yet, please send us a draft.
