The IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition (FG) is the premier international forum for research on image- and video-based face, gesture, and body behavior analysis and recognition. Its broad scope encompasses advances in computer vision, pattern recognition, machine learning, computer graphics, and related areas, as well as innovative methods and applications involving faces, gestures, human behavior, and body movements.

The 21st IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition (FG 2027) marks an important milestone in the history of the conference series, as it will be held in Africa for the first time.

FG 2027 will take place April 26–30, 2027, in Marrakesh, Morocco, as a fully in-person event. We invite submissions addressing both foundational and emerging research topics in face, gesture, body, and human behavior analysis and recognition.

NEmo 2026 @ NeurIPS Symbolic Embodied Intelligence (deadline 10 Sept)

September 1st, 2026 Daniela Lopez de Luise

Dear all,

We are pleased to announce NEmo 2026: Neuro-Symbolic Embodied Intelligence, a workshop at NeurIPS 2026, taking place on December 12, 2026 in Sydney, Australia.

NEmo focuses on long-lived autonomous agents that perceive, reason, plan, learn and adapt over extended interactions in physical or richly simulated environments. Perception is where much of this is decided: how the output of learned vision becomes something an agent can reason over, how those symbols stay grounded as the scene changes, and what happens when the perceptual commitment was simply wrong.

Topics of interest include:

  • combining learned perception, reinforcement learning and large language models with planning and structured symbolic knowledge
  • grounding and shared semantics
  • memory over long horizons
  • affordances
  • recovery from failed assumptions

We accept ongoing and already published work as well as new contributions.

Important dates

  • Submission deadline: September 10, 2026
  • Workshop date: December 12, 2026

OpenReview: https://openreview.net/group?id=NeurIPS.cc/2026/Workshop/NEmo

The NEmo 2026 Organizing Committee

Special Issue: Information Theory and Large Language Models

September 1st, 2026 Daniela Lopez de Luise
Dear all,
We are excited to announce the Special Issue “Information Theory and Large Language Models” in Entropy (MDPI, ISSN 1099-4300), affiliated with the section “Information Theory, Probability and Statistics”. For full details, please visit the official special issue page:

About this Special Issue

The rapid development of large language models (LLMs) calls for solid theoretical foundations to tackle core challenges including scalability, interpretability, and robustness. Information theory provides powerful analytical frameworks for AI data processing and system optimization, yet its integration into modern LLM research remains insufficiently explored.
This Special Issue aims to fill this gap, welcoming innovative theoretical research and novel algorithms that leverage information theory to advance the capability and interpretability of LLMs, promoting interdisciplinary innovation in this fast-growing field.

Important Dates

* 15 November 2026: Manuscript submission deadline * Rolling publication: Accepted papers will be published online continuously upon approval

Topics of Interest

We welcome original research and review papers covering (but not limited to):
1. Information-theoretic foundations of LLMs 2. Memory and retrieval mechanisms in LLMs 3. Reinforcement learning and LLM reasoning 4. Generalization bounds for LLM training 5. Uncertainty quantification and hallucination detection in LLMs 6. Multimodal LLM information fusion 7. Energy-efficient LLMs via information-theoretic optimization 8. LLM watermarking technologies 9. Large language model compression algorithms
On behalf of the Guest Editors: Dr. Xueyan Niu, Prof. Dr. Jun Chen, Dr. Bo Bai
