The 2024 Neuro-Inspired Computing Elements (NICE) Conference is the 11th annual meeting of researchers in the neural computing field. Like previous editions, NICE 2024 will focus on the interplay between neural theory, neural algorithms, neuromorphic architectures and hardware, and applications for neural computing technology.
NICE aims to involve diverse participation from all over the world and bring together research communities with universities, government, and industry.
NICE 2024 will be held April 23-26, 2024 in La Jolla, California, USA.
Submission Guidelines
For submissions, we will accept regular papers (4-8 pages, not including references) that will be reviewed by the program committee. The length of the paper will not influence decisions, which will be peer-reviewed on the sole quality and clarity of the work. Papers should cover unpublished work and emphasize the novel aspects and the potential impact on the neural computing community. Preference will be given towards submissions describing ambitious approaches to bringing neural inspiration into real-world computing applications. From these submissions we will invite several short talks, lightning talks, and poster presentations.
We also welcome Abstracts (1-2 pages) for 'Work in Progress' or 'Late Breaking News'. These submissions will be considered for poster presentations, lightning talks, or demonstrations when applicable. These submissions will not be considered for the proceedings.
As with previous years, NICE is planning on publishing an online proceedings volume, details are below. Authors can also opt out of including their paper in the proceedings.
Please submit a two-page document for the tutorial submission if you are interested in presenting a tutorial at the conference. Please use the regular submission website with the type selected as tutorial.
Details on 2024 NICE Conference Proceedings
- The 2024 NICE proceedings will be published and indexed through IEEE Conference Proceedings this year.
- Please see IEEE Template Download for formatting instructions for IEEE conferences in LaTEX and Word. EasyChair submissions should be a PDF of your paper, with camera ready versions (per the IEEE instructions) due after acceptance.
