Deadline extended – Polimi Summer School

We are glad to inform you that the summer school 
organized by the QFinLab research group at Politecnico di Milano, jointly with the Lake Como School of Advanced Studies and Fondazione Alessandro Volta, 
 
has extended the application deadline to  May 24th 2021
 
Because of Covid-19 restrictions, the School will be held online
 
Registration fees: 150 EUR, VAT 22% included
 
The School aims to present the state of the art on methodologies and applications of Neural Networks and Nets to finance. The expected audience of the school is provided by PhD students and young researchers interested in applications of ML techniques to finance.People from industry are also welcome.
 
The school is organized through mini-courses, lectures and workshops and aims at introducing complex networks, neural networks, information filtering networks and their applications to socio-economic systems.
