The learning materials (hands-on examples) are deeply connected with real experimental applications. Meanwhile, we also encourage our theorist friends to join ML4FP as the machine learning tools and methods are general. Through this platform, we appreciate discussions for current and future use of machine learning mathods in various aspects of particle physics. We put particular emphasis on the hands-on tutorials with realistic examples to help participants to dive in the machine learning world for their research needs. The school is open to all enthusiasts working in particle physics who wish to advance their knowledge in machine learning. Thanks to the ATC program by US ATLAS, there will be financial assistance to support most US ATLAS students in double-occpancy hotel rooms near LBNL (we cannot cover airfare).
