Dear Small Size League community,
We are pleased to announce *NEmo 2026: Neuro-Symbolic Embodied Intelligence*, a workshop at *NeurIPS 2026*, taking place on *December 12, 2026 in Sydney, Australia*.
NEmo is about *long-lived autonomous agents* that perceive, reason, plan, learn and adapt over extended interactions in physical or richly simulated environments.
SSL sits at an interesting end of this: a *shared world model and centralised team reasoning under a hard real-time budget*, where the question is not only what to represent but what can be reasoned about at all before the situation has moved on.
*Topics of interest include:*
- combining learned perception, reinforcement learning and large language models with planning and structured symbolic knowledge - grounding and shared semantics between teammates - memory over long horizons - affordances - recovery from failed assumptions mid-task
*Contributions reporting experience from robot competitions and long-horizon deployments are explicitly welcome.* We accept ongoing and already published work as well as new contributions.
*Important dates*
- *Submission deadline:* September 10, 2026 - *Workshop date:* December 12, 2026
