Benelearn is the annual machine learning conference of the Benelux. It serves as 
a forum for researchers to exchange ideas, present recent work, and foster 
collaboration in the broad field of Machine Learning and its applications. The 
26th edition is hosted by the Data Mining group of Eindhoven University of 
Technology (TU/e) under the auspices of the Dutch Research School for 
Information and Knowledge Systems (SIKS) and Data Science Center Eindhoven 
(DSC/e). Benelearn 2017 is organised as a two-day event on June 9 and 10, 2017,
