The Threads of Complex Networks 2025 — TCN2025 September 16–19, 2025 Palazzo Strozzi, Florence (Italy)

The aim of the school is to present methodological, computational and machine learning methods for complex networks analysis, with applications spanning a wide range of fields.

The school will present a comprehensive view of the theoretical aspects of challenging topics in network theory, including higher order networks, diffusive models on networks, probabilistic and machine learning approaches, as well as computational methods. A wide range of applications will be explored during the lectures, including socio-economic and financial applications.

A Python tutorial held by lecturers/teaching assistants will follow the lecture to show the implementation of the methods studied during the theoretical class and the proposed application.

ANTS 2026: 15th International Conference on Swarm Intelligence, June 8-10, 2026. Darmstadt, Germany

Since its inception in 1998, ANTS has been a highly selective, single-track meeting that provided a forum for discussing advances in the field of swarm intelligence. It solicits submissions presenting significant, original research from researchers and practitioners of any area related to swarm intelligence.

Swarm intelligence is an interdisciplinary and rapidly evolving field, rooted in the study of self-organizing processes in both natural and artificial systems. Researchers from disciplines ranging from ethology to statistical physics have developed models that explain collective phenomena, such as decision-making in social insect colonies and collective movements in human crowds. Swarm-inspired algorithms and methods have proven effective in solving complex optimization problems and creating multi-robot and networked systems of unparalleled resilience, adaptability and scalability. Applications of swarm intelligence continue to grow and become increasingly critical for addressing societal challenges such as environmental sustainability, food security, health, and global conflicts.

The 2026 edition’s theme is “reaching beyond – swarm intelligence across systems, disciplines, and communities”. The meeting seeks to encourage new perspectives, help bridge traditional boundaries and enable open debate on what could be ambitious, exploratory, and groundbreaking endeavors to embark on.
