<div>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.</div>
<div><br>
We look forward to gathering the deep learning community again in the cool arctic air for a physical conference.</div>
<div><br>
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 <a href="http://www.nldl.org/winter-school" class="OWAAutoLink" id="LPlnk637273">
http://www.nldl.org/winter-school</a>.</div>
<div><br>
We invite submissions presenting new and original research on all aspects of Deep Learning. The topics include but are not limited to the following:<br>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<li>General Machine Learning (active learning, clustering, online learning, ranking, reinforcement learning, supervised, semi- and self-supervised learning, time series analysis, etc.)</li></ul>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<li>General Deep Learning (architectures, generative models, deep reinforcement learning, etc.)</li></ul>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<li>Optimization (convex and non-convex optimization, matrix/tensor methods, stochastic, online, non-smooth, composite, etc.)</li></ul>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<li>Probabilistic methods (Bayesian methods, variational inference, graphical models, etc.)</li></ul>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<li>Social and economic aspects of Machine Learning (accountability, causality, fairness, privacy, robustness, interpretability, etc.)</li></ul>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<li>Applications (vision, language, signals, speech and audio, etc.)</li></ul>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<li>Deep Learning for Sciences (biology and medicine, environment and ecology, physics, etc.)</li></ul>
<br>
As always, we are happy to have top international speakers. This year, we have confirmed<br>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<li>Michael Felsberg, Linköping University, Sweden</li></ul>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<li>Bram van Ginneken, Radboud University Medical Center, Netherlands</li></ul>
and more to come.<br>

</div>
<div>We are accepting two alternatives for contributions: <br>
</div>
<div>(1) Full paper submissions (5 pages) will be presented either as orals or as posters and will be published in the conference proceedings. The proceedings are approved as a level 1 publication in the Norwegian national list of authorized research publication
channels, and will appear in PMLR. <br>
</div>
<div>(2) Extended abstracts (2 pages) will be presented as posters (but not published in the conference proceedings). The review process is double-blind.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Deadline for full papers submissions: <b>September 2nd, 2024.</b><br>
Deadline for extended abstracts: <b>Mid October 2024</b> (exact date to be announced).</div>
<div><br>
Instructions about the template and submission can be found on <a href="http://www.nldl.org" class="OWAAutoLink">
http://www.nldl.org</a>. <br>
A tentative program will be available soon at <a href="http://www.nldl.org/" class="OWAAutoLink">
http://www.nldl.org/</a> and will include keynotes, scientific talks, an industry event, a Women in AI event and social events.<br>
We hope to see many participants for a nice scientific gathering on the “north pole”, including social events, and hopefully some northern lights.<br>
<br>
