CFP Closing Soon: 2026 Applied Machine Learning Conference
Submit your talks and tutorials before Sunday, February 22
There’s less than a week left to propose talks and tutorials for the 2026 Applied Machine Learning Conference! The Call for Proposals closes at the end of the day on Sunday, February 22. We’re seeking proposals for 30-minute talks and 90-minute tutorials covering topics in data science, AI, machine learning, scientific computing, and related fields.
A few tips as the CFP enters the home stretch:
LLMs and AI agents are the hottest of hot topics right now, and will feature prominently at the conference, but not every proposal needs to be about AI. We are aiming to create a balanced conference program that highlights a broad array of ML methods and applications, tools, engineering, and infrastructure, classical modeling approaches, organizational and societal concerns, and more.
We usually receive many fewer proposals for tutorials than we do for talks. If you want to boost your chances of speaking at the conference, propose a tutorial!
Accepted speakers receive a free ticket for the entire event.
For more details and to submit a proposal, please review the Call for Proposals page on the Applied Machine Learning Conference website:
One more thing — if you know colleagues or friends who might be interested in speaking, please share this with them! We’d love to reach folks we might otherwise miss.
