About

CodeML is a unique hackathon. Spread over 48 hours, it consists of a series of challenges on machine learning of increasing difficulty. This event is the perfect opportunity for participants to familiarize themselves with different aspects of machine learning methods! For those new to the field, this competition will allow you to learn a lot as we prepared documentation and tools for you to start! For veterans, we have also created some tough challenges for you to enjoy! Many prizes to win!

SEMLA is a Quebec-based research group that brings together researchers in software engineering and applied machine learning from Quebec and Canadian universities specializing in the engineering of intelligent software systems.
