The next MCM conference takes place in (downtown) Paris next 26-30 June. Deadlines are 31 December for mini-symposia/invited sessions and 28 February for contributed talks/posters. I appreciate very much the effort in lowering the registration fees to 80€ for students and 170€ for others, whilst including lunches into the deal! (The view of Paris in the above logo is actually taking from Paris Jussieu campus.)

N[eur]IP[ari]S [23-24 November]
Posted in pictures, Statistics, Travel, University life with tags France, Jussieu, Lutèce, mirror workshop, NeurIPS 2022, NeurIPS@Paris 2022, New Orleans, Paris, Place Jussieu, Sorbonne Université, Université Pierre et Marie Curie on October 10, 2022 by xi'an
The Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (abbreviated as NeurIPS) will see a mirror version in Paris this Fall, albeit in advance of the main meeting (which starts the week after on 29 November and in New Orleans, hence with a France connection!). The concept is original in that (interested) authors of accepted 2022 NeurIPS papers will present their paper on 23-24 November. Registration is free. But attendance is not guaranteed if the number of registrations exceed the site capacity, in which case attendees will be selected at random.
