PhD summer school, WIT

Yesterday I've participated in pattern recognition section of PhD summer school on Scentific Computing. It's a web conference event. Several universities participate in it, including Waterford University of Technology and our Moscow State University. There I have a talk about my last research work: accelerating boosting with genetic algorithms. That was my first experience of web conferencing, but everything went ok as I think.

If someone is interested, slides from my talk are available there. AFAIK conference site will appear soon. It will contain both the presentations and theses of the presented works. There should be some interesting stuff there. For example, I'd like the talk about feature set compactness of the training set and its relation to k-NN classifiers by Dmitry Potepalov.
