Join us on the 8th of December to explore how Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) can be used at the UMCG. Together, we will explore how MLOps can help us build robust pipelines to bring more AI into the clinic and improve the sustainability of our software. We will start with a presentation by Lech Bialek on his PhD research project into the intersection of MLOps and software sustainability across different application domains. He will introduce the main concepts and share preliminary results from a small-scale questionnaire and a series of interviews conducted at the UMCG. In the second part, we will discuss these findings together, reflect on where we currently stand at the UMCG, and explore the opportunities for MLOps in the near future.
Lech Bialek has been working as a software engineering lecturer and researcher on digital transformation at Hanze University of Applied Sciences since 2009. He is a part-time PhD student in the Software Engineering and Architecture research group (SEARCH) at the Bernoulli Institute for Mathematics, Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence at the University of Groningen.
For a fruitful discussion, we encourage UMCG staff from diverse backgrounds to join. For example, those who do research in Machine Learning, develop or maintain IT research tools, or work in research support. Clinicians and researchers interested in bringing AI into clinical practice are also very welcome. No prior knowledge on MLOps is required; the topic will be introduced during the presentation.
