ICML 2024 hosted a number of social events that provided networking opportunities. This year, 9,473 submissions (excluding desk-rejected papers) were received by ICML, representing an increase of 44% from last year. Out of these, 2,609 submissions were accepted for presentation at the conference, resulting in an acceptance rate of 27.5%.&#8217;, says Kamil Adamczewski.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"619\" data-id=\"23524\" src=\"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-08_2024_ICML_Adamczewski_etc-1-a-1024x619.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23524\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-08_2024_ICML_Adamczewski_etc-1-a-1024x619.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-08_2024_ICML_Adamczewski_etc-1-a-300x181.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-08_2024_ICML_Adamczewski_etc-1-a-768x464.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-08_2024_ICML_Adamczewski_etc-1-a-1536x928.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-08_2024_ICML_Adamczewski_etc-1-a-2048x1238.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"503\" data-id=\"23526\" src=\"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-08_2024_ICML_Adamczewski_etc-2-aa-1024x503.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-08_2024_ICML_Adamczewski_etc-2-aa-1024x503.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-08_2024_ICML_Adamczewski_etc-2-aa-300x147.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-08_2024_ICML_Adamczewski_etc-2-aa-768x377.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-08_2024_ICML_Adamczewski_etc-2-aa-1536x754.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-08_2024_ICML_Adamczewski_etc-2-aa-2048x1005.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Kamil Adamczewski \/ Micha\u0142 Krutul, Sebastian Jaszczur, Jakub Krajewski, Jan Ludziejewski, Kamil Adamczewski (all IDEAS NCBR)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;Given the works presented at ICML, we can distinguish a few trends. LLMs are the most popular field of research. While building larger models produces better results (as presented in our paper &#8220;Scaling Laws for Fine-Grained Mixture of Experts&#8221;), more and more focus is on building small, good-performing, efficient models,&#8217; adds Kamil Adamczewski.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;It was my second time at a premier ML conference, and again, I was not disappointed. Although most of presented research was on LLMs and reinforcement learning, which is slightly out of my area of expertise, I still found a lot of new interesting papers from my own area of research and was happy to connect with their authors,&#8217; says Marcin Przewi\u0119\u017alikowski.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;We had an opportunity to listen to talks by experts such as Chelsea Finn, who presented exciting directions for efficient and embodied Machine Learning \u2013 something which is very close to my research interests. Another interesting point was a talk by Lucilla Sioli \u2013 the European Comission\u2019s Director for AI and Digital Industry, who presented the vision for AI development in Europe,&#8217; adds Marcin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"23532\" src=\"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/08.2024_Cupial_ICML-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23532\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/08.2024_Cupial_ICML-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/08.2024_Cupial_ICML-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/08.2024_Cupial_ICML-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/08.2024_Cupial_ICML-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/08.2024_Cupial_ICML.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"574\" data-id=\"23534\" src=\"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-8_2024_ICML-2-a-2-1024x574.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-8_2024_ICML-2-a-2-1024x574.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-8_2024_ICML-2-a-2-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-8_2024_ICML-2-a-2-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-8_2024_ICML-2-a-2-756x425.jpg 756w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-8_2024_ICML-2-a-2-376x211.jpg 376w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-8_2024_ICML-2-a-2-303x169.jpg 303w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-8_2024_ICML-2-a-2-533x300.jpg 533w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-8_2024_ICML-2-a-2-254x143.jpg 254w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-8_2024_ICML-2-a-2-347x195.jpg 347w, https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/07-8_2024_ICML-2-a-2.jpg 1507w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Bart\u0142omiej Cupia\u0142 (IDEAS NCBR) \/ Aleksandra Nowak (formerly IDEAS NCBR), \u0141ukasz Gniecki, Filip Szatkowski (IDEAS NCBR)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In July 2024, our researchers took part in the ICML 2024 conference (International Conference on Machine Learning).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":27,"featured_media":23536,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[79,86],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23518","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en-2","category-news-en-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23518","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/27"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23518"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23518\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23559,"href":"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23518\/revisions\/23559"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23536"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23518"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23518"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ideas-ncbr.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23518"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
