**MLT init** is a monthly event led by Jayson Cunanan and J. Miguel Valverde where a paper is first presented by a volunteer and then discussed among all attendees. Our goal is to give participants good initializations to study Deep Learning effectively. We also hope to promote collaboration between participants. We will try to achieve this by:

* Discuss fundamental papers whose key ideas apply to state-of-the-art models.
* Providing the audience with summaries, codes, and visualizations to help understand the critical parts of a research paper.

**📌 Prerequisites**
We allocate most of the time for discussion and kindly ask participants to read the paper in advance and join the session with at least two questions or comments in mind. These can be parts of the research paper that you think is interesting or unclear. For instance: What did you like the most about this paper? What did you learn? What did you not understand?

**📌 Organizer's Bio**
**J. Miguel Valverde** is a PhD student at the University of Eastern Finland working on Rodent MRI Segmentation with Deep Learning. He has multiple research experiences across Europe and Japan. In his free time, he enjoys nature, learning languages, programming, and making food.
