Online Learning and Economics Workshop @EC 2025

July 10, 2025
Colocated with ACM EC 25, Stanford University, Stanford, CA
https://sites.google.com/view/ole-2025/home-page

Submission deadline: June 6, 2025

The workshop focuses on the intersection of online learning and economics, exploring how learning algorithms are increasingly used for decision-making in strategic economic settings such as markets and platforms. The event brings together researchers from diverse fields to discuss current challenges, share recent advances, and foster collaboration. The scope of the workshop extends beyond online learning to encompass other relevant domains of machine learning, including, for example, learning theory and reinforcement learning.

Workshop on Predictions and Uncertainty at COLT 25

June 30, 2025
Lyon, France at COLT 2025
https://vaidehi8913.github.io/predictions-and-uncertainty-colt25/

Submission deadline: May 25, 2025

Predictions from machine learning systems are increasingly being used as inputs to downstream algorithms and decision-making tasks. However, these predictions can be unreliable, and often suffer from biases or overconfidence, highlighting the need for rigorous approaches to modeling their uncertainty. The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers from across different communities to learn about exciting developments and explore connections between these emerging lines of research. Topics of interest include Conformal Prediction, Algorithms with Predictions, Robust Statistics, Risk-Averse Decision Making, and other approaches for estimating and propagating uncertainty in statistical and algorithmic applications. The workshop includes a poster session, and we invite submissions from a broad range of areas related to uncertainty quantification and using unreliable predictions.

Workshop on the Theory of AI for Scientific Computing

June 30, 2025
Lyon, France
https://tasc-workshop.github.io

Submission deadline: May 23, 2025
Registration deadline: May 23, 2025

The Theory of AI for Scientific Computing (TASC) workshop will be held as part of COLT 2025 and aims to advance the theoretical understanding of AI-augmented scientific computing, including capabilities and limitations of recent methods, principled architectures, unique data-generation and training considerations when connecting ML to downstream tasks, the sample complexity potential of transfer learning and active sampling, and ensuring the robustness of deployed systems and the validity of new discoveries. Our goal is to foster new theory that can bridge the gap between rapid methodological developments and their ultimate goals: scientific understanding and deployable computational systems. Join us on June 30, 2025 in Lyon, France for an exciting program of keynotes, posters, awards, and discussions about building principled connections between learning, algorithms, and the physical sciences, identifying promising scientific computing objectives for AI, and formalizing theoretical problems that will inspire continued progress.

Workshop on Foundations of Post-training

July 30, 2025
Lyon, France (colocated with COLT 2025)
https://fopt-workshop.github.io/

Submission deadline: May 19, 2025

This COLT 2025 workshop seeks to explore the theoretical and practical aspects of the post-training of LLMs, across a diversity of domains and abstractions. The workshop aims to bring together experts from diverse fields including theoretical reinforcement learning, optimization, statistical learning theory, as well as more empirical directions, to identify critical research opportunities.

As a part of FoPt 2025, we invite abstract submissions to a single non-archival track. See our call for abstracts for more details. The submission deadline is Monday, May 19th, 2025.
