Neural Information Processing Systems conference proceedings:

and some (not-so) clever URL scraping (increment the number in the
URL) reveals the draft proceedings for this year:

I'm most interested in the speech and NLP papers, rather than the
heavy math, but there are both.

One entertaining idea (haven't read it thoroughly) is about breaking
audio CAPTCHAs with "simple" speech recognition, and then speculating
on how to tamper with data to *break* ASR without making it
incomprehensible to humans.  (Tam, von Ahn, et al.)
