Krzysztof Choromanski returns to the Google booth (#B206) to explore practical robotics research today at 3pm. Learn about Gemini Robotics models, 3D Transformers, and efficient techniques for object detection. #ICML2026
Learn more about how Isomorphic Labs' Drug Design Engine is using artificial intelligence to help solve disease. Join Agnieszka Podsiadlo and Andreas Loukas today at 3:00pm at the Google booth (#B206) to discuss AI healthcare pipelines. #ICML2026
Join Vahab Mirrokni and Michael Galkin at 12:30pm today at the Google booth (#B206) for a session on graph foundation models. Learn how generalizable graph learning improves systems and coding, driving 20% datacenter efficiency gains and optimizing database queries. #ICML2026
Meet Naman Goyal and Jenny Ni today at the Google booth (#B206) to explore how small changes like cropping, dimming, or compression can impact both a model's answers and its verification evidence. Discover why deployment reliability is tested trust, not just a clean benchmark score. #ICML2026
We caught up with Haruka Kiyohara to find out about work presented at #ICML2026 that studies how to improve early-stage retrieval in two-stage decision processes; this has implications for large-scale recommender systems
