Conference Overview

The ACM International Conference on Neuromorphic Systems (ICONS) brings together researchers, engineers, and practitioners advancing brain-inspired computing. Now in its ninth year, ICONS continues to serve as the premier forum for neuromorphic systems: novel architectures, algorithms, software frameworks, and applications that leverage neuromorphic hardware.

This year, ICONS is welcoming work at the intersection of neuromorphic computing and energy-efficient AI. This includes ultra-low-power spike-based machine learning and processing, event-driven computation, in-memory computing, and other approaches that achieve significant improvements in computational efficiency for edge deployment.

Whether you’re developing neuromorphic processors, creating brain-inspired algorithms, or deploying efficient spike-based AI at the edge, ICONS provides a forum to present research, build collaborations, and advance the field of efficient intelligent systems.
