#XAI, #neurosymbolic methods #nesy and #causal #representation #learning #CRL all care about learning #interpretable #concepts, but in different ways.

We are organizing this #ICLR2026 workshop to bring these three communities together and learn from each other 🦾🔥💥

Submission deadline: 30 Jan 2026
📣 Announcing the Workshop on **Unifying Concept Representation Learning** (UCRL) at ICLR’26 (@iclr-conf.bsky.social ).

When? 26 or 27 April 2026
Where? Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Call for papers, schedule, invited speakers & more:

Excited to be serving as Program co-Chair of UAI 2026 with Ema Perkovic! We are busy working on facilitating an excellent program.

In my unbiased opinion UAI is an ideal venue at the intersection of stats & CS: good size, good science, good vibes.

Please submit your work!

Want to use your favourite #NeSy model but afraid of the reasoning shortcuts?🫣

Fear not💪🏻In our #NeurIPS2025 paper we show that you just need to equip your favourite NeSy model with prototypical networks and the reasoning shortcuts will be a problem of the past!

New Realtime Techpocalypse article! How much wealth does Musk have? He earned $203B in 2024. If the height of Mount Everest represents this quantity, how tall would $50k stand in comparison? The answer is that $50k would amount to the size of a single flea. THAT'S IT! Short 🧵

a huge thanks to @rmassidda.it who not only flawlessly managed to update the #UAI2025 website, but also wrote an amazing pipeline (with docker!) from scratch to do so.

All future publicity chairs will own Riccardo!

I love the #eurips initiative! But to live up to its potential, it should be accepted an official #neurips conference location (similar to Mexico City) and not just an addon! Then we would save C02, rather than adding to it!!! What can we do to achieve this?
EurIPS is coming! 📣 Mark your calendar for Dec. 2-7, 2025 in Copenhagen 📅

EurIPS is a community-organized conference where you can present accepted NeurIPS 2025 papers, endorsed by @neuripsconf.bsky.social and @nordicair.bsky.social and is co-developed by @ellis.eu
