8th Inter-Experimental LHC Machine Learning Workshop

This is the eight annual workshop of the LPCC inter-experimental machine learning working group.

The workshop will be held on 9Nov-13Nov 2026 at CERN in a hybrid format, with remote participation made possible.

Confirmed invited speakers

Warning

If you receive any email by a "Global Travel Experts" company or any other similar company requesting your itinerary or other personal information or promising accommodation, please be aware it is a scam, and please report it to the CERN IT department https://information-technology.web.cern.ch/. 

Workshop format

Following the success of the previous years’ format, more slots will be allocated for poster presentations, promoting stronger interaction between participants. Therefore, poster presentations will be required to be given in person. Poster presenters will also have the opportunity to provide a brief oral summary of their work during 5 min flash talks. A small number of contributed submissions will be selected for full-length oral presentations.

You will have to arrange for your own accommodation, either in the CERN Hostel (https://edh.cern.ch/Hostel/, subject to room availability) or in nearby hotels.

Please make sure to be registered to lhc-machinelearning-wg@cern.ch CERN egroup and join the Mattermost channel, to be informed of any unforeseen circumstance.

The preliminary structure of the workshop includes:

• Tutorials 
• Plenary invited talks from academy
• Poster sessions
• Plenary contributed talks

For the contributed posters and potential talks, the following Tracks have been defined:

1. ML for object identification and reconstruction
2. ML for analysis: Event classification, statistical analysis and inference, anomaly detection
3. ML for simulation and surrogate model
4. LLMs and Agentic AI
5. Foundation Models
6. Fast ML: Application of ML to DAQ/Trigger/Real Time Analysis/Edge Computing
7. AI infrastructure: Hardware and software for ML/MLOps
8. ML in phenomenology and theory
