CoPLaWS is a series of annual workshops for programming language researchers working in the greater Copenhagen area (DTU, KU, ITU, RUC, but also open to researchers in industry and other institutions). The aim is to get together and learn about each others work.
The 2023 edition will take place at ITU, auditorium 4, on Wednesday June 7, and will be a full day event including dinner (at the expense of the participants).
Title: Deep probabilistic programming: a new paradigm in machine learning
Abstract: Deep probabilistic programming (DPP) combines the scope offered by deep learning with the principled treatment of uncertainty offered by Bayesian statistics. This is an important development in machine learning as overly confident predictions are disastrous for many machine learning / AI applications in engineering and biomedicine. I will give an overview of what deep probabilistic programming is about, provide some example applications from DIKU’s probabilistic programming group, and point out how DPP can benefit from PL research.

We invite proposals for 20-minute talks for the workshop. Since there are many programming language researchers in Copenhagen, it is likely that we will get more talk proposals than can fit in a day. In that event, the talks will be selected by the organisers based on a light reviewing process. We will aim for diversity in topics and institutions represented.
Talk proposals should consist of a title and a one paragraph abstract. No need to submit any PDF.

Deadline: 24 May 2023
