Open House on Multi-Task and Complex Outputs Learning, London 2006

The Open House is part of the PASCAL's fifth thematic programme. This scientific programme brings together researchers around two themes:

• learning tasks where the target is complex (i.e. large number of different predictions) but has structure (sequence, tree, graph) that can be utilized for learning effectively;
• multi-task learning, where several dependent learning tasks are to be tackled at once.

In particular, we shall focus on the following research topics/issues.
