The Boston Symmetry Group organizes events for Boston-area researchers that are interested in the interplay between symmetries and machine learning. Relevant research topics include invariant/equivariant neural networks, symmetries in learning algorithms, graph neural networks, and applications of symmetries in machine learning for physical systems, molecules, social networks, and beyond.

Boston Symmetry Day

Boston Symmetry Day is a meeting of symmetry-minded folks in the Boston area. It is the largest event on symmetry and machine learning in the United States. Registration is free for all who would like to attend, subject to space constraints.
