University of Edinburgh - 18 March 2010

In this year's IET/ BCS Turing Lecture, Professor Christopher Bishop, the Chief Research Scientist at Microsoft Research Cambridge, discusses the field of machine learning, and shows how uncertainty can be modelled and quantified using probabilities. This prestigious, high profile lecture, dedicated to the memory of Alan Turing, explores how computers can 'learn'.

The event is supported by the University's School of Informatics.

Chris Bishop is a Professor of Computer Science at the University of Edinburgh. He is also member of the Institute for Adaptive and Neural Computation in the School of Informatics and has been elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh.

The evening lecture will be followed by a buffet reception, offering the opportunity to meet the speaker and enjoy the surroundings of the University. To secure your place at this exciting lecture and buffet reception.
