Les Houches Schools

Participants at Les Houches

I have organized several schools and workshops at the Ecole de Physique des Houches, bringing together researchers and students around statistical physics, inference, optimization, message-passing algorithms, and machine learning.

Editions

2022 - Summer School on Statistical Physics of Machine Learning

The school originally planned for 2020 was held in July 2022. Its website collects the programme, speakers, and lecture material.

2020 - Summer Workshop on Statistical Physics and Machine Learning

When the full school had to be postponed, a smaller workshop was held from 3-14 August 2020. The original website and material are preserved here:

2013 - Statistical Physics, Optimization, Inference, and Message-Passing Algorithms

This October 2013 school led to a set of lecture notes published as a book.
