Submit to BabyVLM @NeurIPSConf : babyvlm.github.io
We welcome work on: 🧠 Sample-efficient learning 👀 Vision + language 🌍 Grounded learning 👶 Developmental learning 📏 Human-inspired evaluation 🤖 Learning from limited data
📅 Deadline: August 31
🚨 Excited to announce BabyVLM, a new workshop at @NeurIPSConf 2026 in Atlanta!
We’re bringing together researchers across AI, vision, language, cognitive science and developmental psychology to ask: Can AI learn more like a baby? 👶🤖
Submissions are due August 31.
I first met Jason Arday in 2023, shortly after he joined @Cambridge_Uni. After his death, I've kept returning to one thing he told me: “We live in a world bereft of kindness, love and empathy. Do the best you can and help people in need as much as they need.”
It's #CogSci2026 this week in Rio! 🇧🇷 My latest
@cogsci_soc paper, with Mila Marcheva and Dr Weiwei Sun @cambridgenlp , computationally compares competing theories of child language acquisition that predict different orders for syntax acquisition! arxiv.org/pdf/2605.08476
