Berkeley Lab Machine Learning Experts Share Exciting Scientific Developments at NeurIPS 2023
November 30, 2023
Contact: cscomms@lbl.gov
In less than two weeks, several Berkeley Lab machine learning experts head to New Orleans for the 37th Conference on Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS 2023), held this year from December 10-16, 2023. This multi-track interdisciplinary annual meeting includes invited talks, demonstrations, symposia, and oral and poster presentations of refereed papers. A professional exposition will occur alongside the conference, focusing on machine learning in practice, a series of tutorials, and topical workshops that provide a less formal setting for exchanging ideas.
Below is a continually updated day-by-day guide to NeurIPS 2023 programming featuring Berkeley Lab staff.
All times are Central Standard.

About Berkeley Lab
Founded in 1931 on the belief that the biggest scientific challenges are best addressed by teams, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and its scientists have been recognized with 16 Nobel Prizes. Today, Berkeley Lab researchers develop sustainable energy and environmental solutions, create useful new materials, advance the frontiers of computing, and probe the mysteries of life, matter, and the universe. Scientists from around the world rely on the Lab’s facilities for their own discovery science. Berkeley Lab is a multiprogram national laboratory, managed by the University of California for the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Science.
DOE’s Office of Science is the single largest supporter of basic research in the physical sciences in the United States, and is working to address some of the most pressing challenges of our time. For more information, please visit energy.gov/science.
