MLN 2019 is the second edition of the International Conference on Machine
Learning for Networking. The goal of the conference is to provide a forum for
scientists, engineers and researchers to discuss and exchange novel ideas,
results, experiences and work-in-process on all aspects of Machine Learning and
Networking. Each year, MLN attendees will appreciate and benefit from
multidisciplinary exchanges on these hot topics. MLN 2019 will be held from
December 3rd to December 5th 2019, in Paris, France.

Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished papers, which are not under
