Conference on Parsimony and Learning (CPAL)
March 2025, Stanford

The Conference on Parsimony and Learning (CPAL) is an annual research conference focused on addressing the parsimonious, low dimensional structures that prevail in machine learning, signal processing, optimization, and beyond. We are interested in theories, algorithms, applications, hardware and systems, as well as scientific foundations for learning with parsimony.

Announcing CPAL 2025: Calls for Papers, Tutorials

We are pleased to announce the Second Conference on Parsimony and Learning, to be held in concert with Stanford Data Science at Stanford University in California, USA!

Paper submissions for the second Conference on Parsimony and Learning will be opened soon (OpenReview-based). Please see the call for papers for details about the submission and reviewing process, as well as subject areas of interest and general policies.
