From autonomous cars to video games, reinforcement learning (machine learning through interaction with environments) can have an important impact. That may feel especially true, for example, when ...

In this tutorial, we build a safety-critical reinforcement learning pipeline that learns entirely from fixed, offline data rather than live exploration. We design a custom environment, generate a ...

Over the past few years, AI systems have become much better at discerning images, generating language, and performing tasks within physical and virtual environments. Yet they still fail in ways that ...

Every year, NeurIPS produces hundreds of impressive papers, and a handful that subtly reset how practitioners think about scaling, evaluation and system design. In 2025, the most consequential works ...

This tutorial is designed to make reinforcement learning (RL) more accessible to undergraduate students by offering clear, example-driven explanations. It focuses on bridging the gap between RL theory ...

The world hasn't seen one of its greatest racecar drivers since a serious brain injury more than a decade ago. But photos shared on social media over the Christmas holiday from his family's Texas ...

AI coding tools are getting better fast. If you don’t work in code, it can be hard to notice how much things are changing, but GPT-5 and Gemini 2.5 have made a whole new set of developer tricks ...

I have to admit it: I’ve always been a nerd. I loved school. I loved university. And yes, I’m seriously contemplating a PhD, not for career advancement, but simply for the joy of diving deep into ...

India's EdTech sector just made history. The Spoken Tutorial pedagogy developed by IIT Bombay has officially been recognised as a global IEEE standard -- a first for the country. Titled IEEE P2955, ...
