Three papers co-authored by Prof. Suayb S. Arslan, Director of the Institute for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence, have been accepted to the 40th Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS 2026). One paper was accepted to the Main Track and two to NeurIPS 2026 workshops. This year NeurIPS takes place in three cities: the main venue is in Sydney, Australia, with official satellite events in Paris, France, and Atlanta, USA.
