Call for Abstracts

The 2025 edition of the Northern Lights Deep Learning Conference (NLDL) will take place on 7-9 January 2025 in Tromsø, Norway, organized by Visual Intelligence and the UiT Machine Learning Group.

We look forward to gathering the deep learning community again in the cool arctic air for a physical conference.

In addition, the NLDL winter school, which is a part of the NORA research school http://nora.ai, starts on Jan 6, ends on Jan 10, and incorporates events during the main conference days. The winter school includes scientific topics, an industry event, women in AI event, and transferable skills. More information is coming soon at http://www.nldl.org/winter-school.

We invite submissions presenting new and original research on all aspects of Deep Learning. The topics include but are not limited to the following:

• General Machine Learning (active learning, clustering, online learning, ranking, reinforcement learning, supervised, semi- and self-supervised learning, time series analysis, etc.)

• General Deep Learning (architectures, generative models, deep reinforcement learning, etc.)

• Optimization (convex and non-convex optimization, matrix/tensor methods, stochastic, online, non-smooth, composite, etc.)

• Probabilistic methods (Bayesian methods, variational inference, graphical models, etc.)

• Social and economic aspects of Machine Learning (accountability, causality, fairness, privacy, robustness, interpretability, etc.)

• Applications (vision, language, signals, speech and audio, etc.)

• Deep Learning for Sciences (biology and medicine, environment and ecology, physics, etc.)
  
  

As always, we are happy to have top international speakers. This year, we have confirmed

• Michael Felsberg, Linköping University, Sweden

• Bram van Ginneken, Radboud University Medical Center, Netherlands

• Marie-Francine Moens, KU Leuven, Belgium

and more to come.
