Co-located with MICRO 2025, October 19, Seoul, Korea
(8am-12pm @ Charlotte Room, Lotte Hotel, 36F)
[Workshop Overview]
In a world increasingly defined by the fusion of the physical and digital components, cognitive sensing is poised to revolutionize how edge devices perceive and respond to their environments. This workshop invites novel research contributions at the intersection of cognitive sensing, neuromorphic computing, and resilient edge inference. We seek to bring together experts from academia and industry to chart the future of intelligent, low-power, and robust edge computing systems. We plan to invite talks that explore algorithms, hardware/system architectures, and design methodologies enabling efficient, real-time, and uncertainty-aware sensing and computing at the edge.
