Call for Tutorials Presentations
Call for Tutorials Presentations
Scope & Objectives: Tutorials at L4DC 2026 will present emergent topics within the L4DC community that have gained a level of maturity, making them suitable for an educational format. We particularly welcome proposals that cover material or use presentation formats not found within the main conference. The aim is to increase interest in the event, enhance interaction and discussion among participants, and make useful connections.
Topics of Interest: We are particularly interested in emergent topics within the L4DC community that have gained an initial level of maturity. We also welcome a diverse team of organizers to bring varied perspectives and expertise. Some research areas of particular interest include:
Statistical methods (such as conformal prediction, CVar, etc) for learning and control
Koopman operator theory and nonlinear dynamics modeling
Physics-Informed Neural Networks
ML methods for solving Hamilton-Jacobi problems
Physics-based simulation frameworks (e.g. Isaac Sim, Brax, NVIDIA Warp, etc.)
Neural network verification for control design
Diffusion and flow models for control applications
Reduced-order and latent dynamics models
Data-driven behavioral theory
Neural operators and deep spatiotemporal modeling
Review Process: The review criteria will include:
Prominence and relevance of the tutorial topic related to the themes of L4DC
Originality of the format and suitability for interaction, engagement, and discussion
Clarity and quality of the proposal as well as diversity and experience of organizers
Submission Guidelines and Contact Information: Interested tutorial organizers should submit a proposal to the Tutorial Chair, Sarah Dean (sdean@cornell.edu), by February 1, 2025. The proposal should be a maximum of 3 pages and should include the following:
Description of the topic
List of speakers and organizers with brief bios
Schedule (three hours of content with a coffee break in the middle)
Comments on the format
For any questions or further information, please reach out to Sarah Dean.
