We are looking forward to welcoming you to the first HAMLET-PHYSICS Conference/Workshop, to be held in sunny Copenhagen, August 19 - 21, 2024.   The workshop has three main goals: 1. To bring together Danish and international physicists using ML to meet, share ideas, and build community across location and physics specialty 2. To bring domain scientists into close contact with ML experts, to build community across the theory - application bridge 3. To provide a friendly environment for researchers to share best practices, for students to interact with experts, and for other sciences and industry to understand the state of ML in physics

Scientific Program

• Keynotes, plenaries and parallels
• Discussions and (AI-assisted) research speed-dating
