📢 Call for Papers in Intelligent Data Analysis. Do you have an interesting research project to share? If the answer is yes, submit your work to IDA2026! You have a bit under 8 weeks left -- plenty of time to write. Find the call for papers here: lnkd.in/ePt8rcJy

Have you seen our flyers yet at @ecmlpkdd.org ? It's an IDA tradition to launch our call for papers here. Join us in Leiden and submit your groundbreaking research in #DataScience, #ML, and #AI. 📝✨ Don't miss out—visit ida2026.liacs.nl for more details! #IDA2026

Nice review of our paper on evaluating RAGs with synthetic ‘ground truth’ data (Arxiv arxiv.org/abs/2508.11758)

Last week of the exhibition, AI Ecologies, at Artphy curated by @petervanderputten.bsky.social and Roland van Dierendonck. It includes two of my robots plus many other fantastic works e.g. a device that finds faces in grains of sand, a machine-constructed alphabet from the bark patterns of a tree.

Does your novel and exciting intelligent data analysis research need a home? #IDA2026 at @unileiden.bsky.social may be the venue for you. Will you submit your work on #DataScience, #ML, or #AI at the next intelligent data analysis symposia iteration, and join us 22-24 April 2026?

Are you a BSc/MSc student or PhD researcher, using #GenAI for studying? If so, please take part in this survey by my student Vlad Popa, it takes only around 5 minutes. forms.cloud.microsoft/e/AMX3WyRmNf

Agents are not new and you won’t run a company by just throwing a mob of agents together. But GenAI did make agent systems feasible and there are some clear sweet spot use cases such as research agents. See for of my PoV here www.techmonitor.ai/digital-econ...

☁️💻 Coming soon: AMLEC – the Atmospheric Machine Learning Emulation Challenge. 📅 Stay tuned for details. Launching April 21st. 🔗 If you want to participate and to submit your results you'll need an account ➡️ huggingface.co/datasets/isp... ℹ️ Info about ECML-PKDD 2025: ecmlpkdd.org/2025/submiss...

LLMs have breathed new life into multi-agent systems, yet agents are transforming LLMs into active, situated, autonomous agents by giving them senses and actuators. Check out our new review on #agentic #LLMs. arxiv.org/abs/2503.23037

Final call! Have the AI/ML community apply their hive brain to your problem and submit a proposal for organizing and ECMLPKDD Discovery Challenge today (deadline March 24) ecmlpkdd.org/2025/submiss...
