The Neural Information Processing Systems annual conference (NeurIPS 2021) was held from December 6 to 14, 2021. It is a multi-track interdisciplinary annual meeting on machine learning, computational neuroscience, and other areas that includes invited talks, demonstrations, symposia, and oral and poster presentations of refereed papers. Along with the conference is a professional exposition focusing on machine learning in practice, a series of tutorials, and topical workshops that provide a less formal setting for the exchange of ideas.
There were various Adobe contributions to the conference, including thirteen main conference papers, nine workshop papers, one workshop invited talk, and one area chair. Nearly all of Adobe’s papers are the result of student internships or other collaborations with university students and faculty. Check out the Adobe Research Careers website to learn more about internships and full-time career opportunities.
