[CFP] Conference on Lifelong Learning Agents (CoLLAs) 2026 - Non-archival Track
Sarath Chandar
The Conference on Lifelong Learning Agents (CoLLAs) is an annual gathering of researchers to exchange ideas on all facets of adaptation of ML models, especially, but not limited to, the ability for lifelong learning. The model can be adapted continually during training on new data/tasks/skills, or could just be a one-off fine-tuning or model merging. Adaptation can add new knowledge, or remove/edit outdated undesired behaviors.
The Non-Archival Track of CoLLAs is designed to allow authors to present work in three categories:
1. Journal Track: recently published work in journals. TMLR will provide a “CoLLAs certification” for TMLR papers that are accepted to be presented at the CoLLAs conference.
2. Sister Conference Track: recently published conference papers at sister conferences like ICML/ICLR/NeurIPS/CVPR/ICCV/ACL/EMNLP/etc.
3. Work-in-Progress Track: ongoing work that is not yet ready for submission to a main conference or journal.
