Machine Learning Summer School 2012 Kyoto was the first school from MLSS series in Japan, hosting around 300 researchers from 52 countries in the world. The speakers were the bests in Machine Learning society, giving intensive lectures in a two week period. My breif report of this event for our laboratory can be found here, also I uploaded my hand notes during the school. The poster of the summer school is located here.
