Getting Started

Everyone is expected to follow the Code of Conduct. We recommend to start by browsing the conference schedule. Read below to learn more about how to use all elements of the virtual conference site. Thank you to all the organizers who made NeurIPS 2024 possible.

 

System Requirements

To access this site you will need a modern browser with JavaScript enabled. The website uses several external tools, namely Rocket.Chat and Zoom. The login is handled through single sign-on through the conference portal. You will not need to download any special software.

A 10 mb of inbound bandwidth is recommended.

Navigating the Website

All virtual parts of NeurIPS 2024 will be accessed through the main webpage. Use the top menu bar to access the diferent parts of the conference. Check the schedule to get an overview of when the live sessions for all events are taking place. You may navigate all the papers in the Papers section. You may search for titles and authors or look through all papers by skimming titles and bookmarking them. You can bookmark other sessions as well. If you go to your name in the top right corner and click on My Bookmarks in the dropdown menu, you can download the schedule with all sessions you bookmarked and you can import it in your calendar.

The Schedule and Papers pages may be a bit slower to load the first time you access them.

Videos

  • Most events will have a live stream on the top of the page that you can watch during and after the presentation.
  • All recordings will be available about a month after the conference.

Poster Sessions

  • The poster sessions are in-person only.

Rocket.Chat

All attendees with registration will automatically have access to Rocket.Chat, a separate Rocket.Chat account is not needed. If you have problems with Rocket.Chat try refreshing the page. If that does not work try logging out and then logging back in.

Each session has a Rocket.Chat channel. Questions for the speakers should be posted there. Other participants that are also interested in the question can comment or put emoji on the post to increase its visibility. Eventually, the moderator will select questions to ask the speaker. Speakers will be able to continue answering questions on Rocket.Chat after the end of their talk for approximately one hour.

  • HelpDesk
    There is a #HelpDesk channel in Rocket.Chat where you can post any conference support questions.
  • Full Screen Mode
    You can run Rocket.Chat in Full-Screen Mode which lists all the channels you've visited. To go to Full-Screen Mode click on the Full [ ] icon in the top right corner. When prompted select Authenticate with OAuth and then click the blue Authorize button in the Authorize Rocket.Chat window.
  • Desktop Client
    You can also use the desktop client which provides better notification. You can download the desktop client for your platform here. When you run it enter the server URL: https://chat.neurips.cc. You may be prompted to log into neurips.cc. After you log in, select Authenticate with OAuth and then click the blue Authorize button in the Authorize Rocket.Chat window.

Timezones

Your current timezone: . (Note: the paper browser uses your system timezone.)

You can have the conference display the time in you timezone. We highly recommend picking a timezone based on a nearby city, especially if your area observes daylight savings time. Timezones are political and complex and thus confusing. Please check your timezone, and preferably choose a zone based on a city.

In previous conferences some attendees have noticed that the times shown on the virtual website appeared incorrect. The problem was that they chose a timezone that did not adjust for daylight savings time.

  • To view your bookmarks click your name in the top right of the virtual site menu and select My Bookmarks. You can then subscribe to the calendar or download it and import it in your calendar.
