Connectionists: -physics of AI- focus session at the spring meeting of the german physical society

[Claudius Gros]

Dear all,

We would like to draw your attention to the focus session

“Physics of Artificial Intelligence” 
at the DPG 2026 meeting (8.3.-13.3.2026), 
Dresden, Germany. 

Deadline for submitting contributed talks:
December 1, 2025
Application details are given at the end.

The spring meeting of the German Physical Society (DPG)
https://dresden26.dpg-tagungen.de/ 
is one of the largest meetings on physics in 
Europe, with ~10,000 participants.

The focus session “Physics of AI” 
aims to bring together experts in the 
field of physics-inspired theory for ML
(Phys4ML). 

We seek submissions that use methods from 
physics to help our understanding of artificial
intelligence systems and neural networks: to 
enable insights into mechanisms of learning 
and inference, into interpretability, or to 
predict expressivity and generalization.

We are very much looking forward to seeing many 
of you in Dresden! Best wishes,

Claudius Gros, Peter Sollich, Moritz Helias
