The 7th Advanced Course on Data Science & Machine Learning – ACDL 2024 (June 10-14) is a full-immersion five-day Course at the Riva del Sole Resort & SPA (Castiglione della Pescaia – Grosseto – Tuscany, Italy) on cutting-edge advances in Deep Learning and Data Science with lectures delivered by world-renowned experts. The Course provides a stimulating environment for PhD students, junior academics, early career researches, Post-Docs and industry leaders. Participants will also have the chance to present their results with talks, and to interact with their colleagues, in a convivial and productive environment.
PhD students, PostDocs, Industry Practitioners, Junior and Senior Academics, and will be typical profiles of the ACDL attendants.The Course will involve a total of 36–40 hours of lectures, according to the academic system the final achievement will be equivalent to 8 ECTS points for the PhD Students (and some strongly motivated master student) attending the Course.

To participate in the ACDL 2024, all attendants must
(1/2) register for the course (by February 23, 2024) and
(2/2) book accommodation at the course venue, “Riva del Sole Resort & SPA” (by March 23, 2024); all attendants must stay at the “Riva del Sole Resort & SPA”.
Once accommodation has been booked at “Riva del Sole Resort & SPA“, the participant must send this information (including the Booking Number) to the ACDL organizing committee (acdl@icas.cc).
ACDL is a residential course, so all lecturers and participants must reside in the same Hotel (Riva del Sole Resort & SPA). No exceptions are made.
For privacy reasons, the Hotel can not match people. If you have someone to share the apartment with, please send to the Hotel (events@rivadelsole.it) the name, surname and email address. Otherwise the solution is to book an apartment in single use.
