Submissions are now open for the 33rd International Conference on Neural Information Processing (ICONIP 2026), which will run on 23–27 November in Melbourne, Australia.
ICONIP 2026, hosted by Deakin University and the Melbourne Convention Bureau, is set to bring together leading researchers, practitioners, and innovators from across the globe, to continue its legacy as one of the premier conferences in neural information processing, machine learning, computational neuroscience, and artificial intelligence.
This year’s conference will feature globally recognised experts, including Professor Mark Hutchinson from the University of Adelaide, a leading authority in biphotonic and advanced sensing, and Professor CT Lin from the University of Technology Sydney, renowned for his work in artificial intelligence and brain–computer interfaces.
Call for Papers and Proposals
Researchers are invited to submit work across a range of categories central to the field of intelligent systems and neural information processing.
These include:
- Papers, to be published in Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) and Communications in Computer Information Science (CCIS).
- Tutorials, offered as half day or full day sessions covering advanced, emerging, or foundational topics in machine learning, computational neuroscience, cognitive modelling, and artificial intelligence. ‑day or full‑day sessions covering advanced, emerging, or foundational topics in machine learning, computational neuroscience, cognitive modelling, and artificial intelligence.
- Workshops, proposed as half day or full day sessions focusing on high impact or emerging themes across neural information processing and AI applications. ‑day or full‑day sessions focusing on high‑impact or emerging themes across neural information processing and AI applications.
- Special Sessions, focused forums for in-depth discussions on topics of high current interest within the ICONIP community.
- Awards recognising excellence in neural information processing, machine learning, computational intelligence, and interdisciplinary research.
Each category offers researchers the opportunity to showcase significant advances, emerging methodologies, and innovative applications within the field.
Submission Deadlines
Submissions for Special Sessions, Tutorials and Workshops close on Sunday 15 March, with contributors encouraged to act promptly to secure their place in one of the world’s leading conferences in neural information processing.
Submissions for papers close on Sunday 10 May.
