A guide to the 36 leading CS/AI conferences

Published

Conftrace tracks published papers from 36 of the most influential conferences and journals in computer science and artificial intelligence. This guide groups them by field so you can find the right venue to browse - from the broad machine-learning meetings to the specialist conferences in computer vision, natural language processing, robotics, and beyond. Each venue links straight to its papers, top authors, and per-year statistics on Conftrace.

The corpus is a sample of top-tier venues, not the whole of research: achievements and trends on Conftrace describe patterns "among 36 leading CS/AI venues", not the field at large.
