*** Call for Participation *** THE SEVENTEENTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON MACHINE LEARNING June 29-July 2, 2000 Stanford University The Seventeenth International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML-2000) will be held at Stanford University from June 29 to July 2, 2000. The conference will bring together researchers to exchange ideas and report recent progress in the computational study of learning. ICML-2000 will include 150 presentations on learning in classification, robotic control, planning, natural language and text processing, computer vision, user modeling, and other domains. It will also feature invited talks by Jerome Friedman, Paul Utgoff, and Haym Hirsh, as well as six workshops on Sunday, July 2. Details about ICML-2000, including the conference schedule, are available at http://www-csli.stanford.edu/icml2k/ The deadline for early registration is June 1, which is less than a week away. After this date, the registration fee increases from $175 to $250. More important, we cannot accept reservations for on-campus housing requests after that date, and we expect hotel space in Silicon Valley to be very scarce, so please register soon. ICML-2000 will be collocated with COLT-2000 and UAI-2000. Registrants to any of these meetings will be able to attend the technical sessions of the others at no additional cost. The conference has received support from DaimlerChrysler, ISLE, Motorola, IBM, CSLI, Hewlett-Packard, and NASA Ames.
