Hello Everyone,

We are pleased to announce the call for papers for the 4th edition of the NeurReps Workshop on Symmetry and Geometry in Neural Representations at NeurIPS 2025 in San Diego (December 6-7).

Our workshop brings together researchers from computational neuroscience, deep learning, and applied mathematics to explore geometric principles underlying neural representations in both biological and artificial systems.

  • Best Paper Awards (sponsored by NewTheory AI): $500 prize for top submissions in each category:
    • Neuroscience & Interpretability
    • Topological & Geometric ML
    • Symmetry & Equivariance

Submission Tracks:

  1. Proceedings Track (up to 9 pages, published in PMLR)
  2. Extended Abstract Track (up to 4 pages)
