San Diego, USA

Datum und Uhrzeit

November 6, 2025 9:00 a.m.

The Thirty-Ninth Annual Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS 2025) is a leading international conference in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and computational neuroscience. The 2025 edition emphasizes the integration of advanced computational methods to address global environmental and societal challenges, including those related to climate change.

We are proud to announce that three of Steffen’s collaborative contributions have been accepted:

  1. Spotlight Talk: “PiggyCast – Improving Weather Prediction Accuracy through a Stacking-Based Ensemble AI Approach”, developed in collaboration with Josiah Kimani from the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS).
  2. Poster Presentation: “AI-based Waste Mapping for Addressing Climate-Exacerbated Flood Risk: Insights from Dar es Salaam”, highlighting the first project outcomes from our collaboration with OMDTZ.
  3. Poster Presentation: “SHRUG-FM: Reliability-Aware Foundation Models for Earth Observation”, presenting the work of the Foundation Models for Extremes team from this year’s Earth Systems Lab at Frontier Development Lab USA – AI for space for all humankind .

We look forward to insightful discussions and inspiring exchanges at NeurIPS 2025, contributing to advancing AI applications for climate action and resilience.
