12th IAPR TC3
Workshop on Artificial Neural Networks in Pattern Recognition
7th-9th of October 2026, University of Milan
ANNPR 2026 in Milan will continue the long successful sequence of ANNPR workshops: 2003 (Florence), 2006 (Ulm), 2008 (Paris), 2010 (Cairo), 2012 (Trento), 2014 (Montreal), 2016 (Ulm), 2018 (Siena), 2020 (Winterthur), 2022 (Dubai) and 2024 (Montreal). The series of ANNPR workshops has acted as a major forum for international researchers and practitioners from the communities of pattern recognition and machine learning based on artificial neural networks.
Keynote Speakers
We have an amazing line up of Keynote Speakers: Sander Dieleman (Google DeepMind, London, UK), Pietro Lió (University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK), Elisa Ricci (University of Trento, Trento, Italy) and Elena Casiraghi (University of Milan, Milan, Italy)
