Annual Project Showcase 2023


Hosted on May 21st, 2023, from 10:30 am to 2:00 pm on Zoom, the Showcase is one of the landmark events of the UTMIST Engineering Department, where we present the results of our 8 projects which underwent 6+ month development cycles from 2022 to 2023. By inviting ICLR oral speakers, talented researchers and industry partners, we hope to import valuable insights and suggestions to further improve our projects. We also hope to use this session as a medium to share the proud works of UTMIST and build broader connections within the Canadian ML community.

For details of each project, please visit their respective pages under the “Projects” tab.
