NeurIPS@Paris 2024 is a 2-day event that takes place at Sorbonne Université on the 4th and 5th of December. This event provides a local alternative to the NeurIPS conference. It aims at addressing some sustainability and inclusivity concerns in machine learning research. All students and researchers are welcome to attend.

Authors of all accepted papers at NeurIPS 2024 are given the opportunity to present their work, through an oral presentation and/or a poster session. We unfortunately cannot accomodate oral presentations for all accepted papers; a subset of accepted papers will be proposed an oral presentation, based on scientific quality, thematic coherence and diversity criteria.

New this year: we offer travel grants. Please let us know when registering if you want to apply for a travel grant. Grants will be given in priority to students and members of underrepresented groups in ML. Please note that we will not fund air travel, for sustainability reasons.

Registration

The event is free but registration is mandatory. Registration are now closed.

This event is in-person only: we will neither record presentations nor include online options.

Venue

This event will take place at Campus Jussieu (4 Place Jussieu, Paris 5ème).

To access by metro, go to station Jussieu on the line 10.

The presentations will be held in amphithéâtre 25. All social events (poster sessions, mentor and career sessions, cocktail and lunch) will be held in SCAI and in the Esclangon building, which is located within Jussieu. A map of Jussieu is available here.

Schedule

The event is planned to start at 9am on December 4 and end at 4:30pm on December 5.

It will feature oral presentations and poster sessions of NeurIPS 2024, as well as presentations from Défenseur des droits, Latitudes and WIMLDS.

The schedule is available here. Two poster sessions are planned, the detailed planning is available here.

Scientific presentations

The presentations are divided into 6 thematic sessions, details are gathered here. Each presentation will last 15 minutes. In the interest of time, questions should be deferred to the poster session. All oral presentations also have a poster presentation in the following poster session.
