NVIDIA has 74 papers accepted at ICML 2026. The research team moves fast enough that they skip promoting every paper one by one. The papers cover open models, robotics, life sciences, and synthetic data.

Open models such as Nemotron and Cosmos are set up as platforms others can use and build on. DreamDojo is one case: a model trained on 44,000 hours of first-person video, then tuned on robot data for simulation, teleoperation, and planning. Outside groups can now apply these tools to protein modeling or robot control. NVIDIA appears to be competing by releasing datasets and tools rather than keeping everything closed.
