Abstract generation in progress

ME News Update, April 18 (UTC+8), NeurIPS 2026 conference has recently opened a call for competition track proposals. The organizers especially encourage proposals that address clear scientific questions, have a positive social impact (especially using AI to support vulnerable groups), and focus on large language model and agent system evaluation. All proposals must comply with NeurIPS' Code of Conduct and Ethics Guidelines, be submitted through the OpenReview system, use the updated LaTeX template, and be no more than 8 pages of main content (including figures and tables). Reviews will be based on scientific relevance (including ethical considerations), feasibility of the evaluation plan, quality and accessibility of data, and the organizers' execution plan and diversity, using a single-blind review process. Accepted competitions will host an in-person workshop during NeurIPS 2026. After the competition, organizers may choose to submit analysis reports to the 2027 NeurIPS evaluation and dataset track (subject to review) or include them in a reputable PMLR journal. Important dates include: proposal submission deadline on May 15, 2026; acceptance notifications by June 15; and the competition workshop scheduled for December 11-12. The official recommendation is to start the competition in June 2026 and conclude by the end of October at the latest. (Source: InFoQ)
