Accepted Papers at 2022 NeurIPS conference

Research from the Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics will be presented at the 2022 NeurIPS (Neural Information Processing Systems) conference set for Thursday, Nov. 29 through Friday, Dec. 9 in New Orleans. 

An annual machine learning and computational neuroscience conference, NeurIPS is considered a flagship event for the machine learning and AI communities. Only 25.7 % of papers submitted to this conference were accepted by the NeurIPS program committee. Researchers will present a poster in person, as well as a recorded video presentation that will be included in the virtual program.
