We’re excited to announce that many CDS faculty, researchers, and students will present at the upcoming thirty-sixth NeurIPS (Neural Information Processing Systems) Conference, taking place Monday, 11/28 through Friday, 12/9. The conference began in 1987 and focuses on the advancement of research in AI and machine learning. This year’s event will take place in a hybrid format — the first week will occur in-person at the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, and the second week will be virtual. Below is a comprehensive list of projects and their corresponding CDS participants (indicated in bold with asterisk in front of it):
