Introduction
The 2026 International Conference on Numerical Convergence (NCS26) serves as the definitive global gathering for mathematicians, statisticians, and data scientists dedicated to the evolution of computational precision. In an era where data volume is expanding exponentially, the challenge has shifted from mere collection to the rigorous scaling of mathematical frameworks. NCS26 focuses on the critical intersection where theoretical axioms meet the high-performance demands of a data-driven reality.
Our mission is to explore the "convergence" of traditional numerical analysis with modern stochastic modeling and machine learning architectures. By refining the algorithms that underpin global infrastructure—from financial risk modeling to climate simulations—we ensure that the transition from abstract formula to applied insight remains accurate and stable.
Join us as we examine the next generation of solvers, stabilizers, and statistical inferences that will define the mathematical landscape of the mid-21st century.
