Progress Update

January 2021

Just under under 100 members joined for the inaugural Machine Learning 2021 (ML2021) meeting on 29 January 2021.

The meeting ratified the groups governance structure and schedule for 2021. Submitted activity proposals were grouped into Workstreams in advance and confirmed with members.

In anticipation of the February meeting, members have signed up to workstreams and leads have been asked to confirm their output and objectives.
