Introduction: NIPS is the big winter conference of learning. Paper due date: June 3rd. (Tweaked thanks to Fei Sha .) Location: Vancouver (main program) Dec. 5-8 and Whistler (workshops) Dec 9-10, BC, Canada NIPS is larger than all of the other learning conferences, partly because it’s the only one at that time of year. I recommend the workshops which are often quite interesting and energetic.

Introduction: Attendance at the NIPS workshops is highly recommended for both research and learning. Unfortunately, there does not yet appear to be a public list of workshops. However, I found the following workshop webpages of interest: Machine Learning in Finance Learning to Rank Foundations of Active Learning Machine Learning Based Robotics in Unstructured Environments There are many more workshops. In fact, there are so many that it is not plausible anyone can attend every workshop they are interested in. Maybe in future years the organizers can spread them out over more days to reduce overlap. Many of these workshops are accepting presentation proposals (due mid-October).

Introduction: I’m the workshops chair for ICML this year. As such, I would like to personally encourage people to consider running a workshop. My general view of workshops is that they are excellent as opportunities to discuss and develop research directions—some of my best work has come from collaborations at workshops and several workshops have substantially altered my thinking about various problems. My experience running workshops is that setting them up and making them fly often appears much harder than it actually is, and the workshops often come off much better than expected in the end. Submissions are due January 18, two weeks before papers. Similarly, Ben Taskar is looking for good tutorials , which is complementary. Workshops are about exploring a subject, while a tutorial is about distilling it down into an easily taught essence, a vital part of the research process. Tutorials are due February 13, two weeks after papers.

Introduction: I second the call for workshops at ICML/COLT/UAI . Several times before , details of why and how to run a workshop have been mentioned. There is a simple reason to prefer workshops here: attendance. The Helsinki colocation has placed workshops directly between ICML and COLT/UAI , which is optimal for getting attendees from any conference. In addition, last year ICML had relatively few workshops and NIPS workshops were overloaded. In addition to those that happened a similar number were rejected. The overload has strange consequences—for example, the best attended workshop wasn’t an official NIPS workshop. Aside from intrinsic interest, the Deep Learning workshop benefited greatly from being off schedule.

5 0.77700627 46 hunch net-2005-03-24-The Role of Workshops
Introduction: A good workshop is often far more interesting than the papers at a conference. This happens because a workshop has a much tighter focus than a conference. Since you choose the workshops fitting your interest, the increased relevance can greatly enhance the level of your interest and attention. Roughly speaking, a workshop program consists of elements related to a subject of your interest. The main conference program consists of elements related to someone’s interest (which is rarely your own). Workshops are more about doing research while conferences are more about presenting research. Several conferences have associated workshop programs, some with deadlines due shortly. ICML workshops Due April 1 IJCAI workshops Deadlines Vary KDD workshops Not yet finalized Anyone going to these conferences should examine the workshops and see if any are of interest. (If none are, then maybe you should organize one next year.)

Introduction: Registration for COLT 2007 is now open. The conference will take place on 13-15 June, 2007, in San Diego, California, as part of the 2007 Federated Computing Research Conference (FCRC), which includes STOC, Complexity, and EC. The website for COLT: http://www.learningtheory.org/colt2007/index.html The early registration deadline is May 11, and the cutoff date for discounted hotel rates is May 9. Before registering, take note that the fees are substantially lower for members of ACM and/or SIGACT than for nonmembers. If you’ve been contemplating joining either of these two societies (annual dues: $99 for ACM, $18 for SIGACT), now would be a good time!

Introduction: This post is a (near) transcript of a talk that I gave at the ICML 2013 Workshop on Peer Review and Publishing Models . Although there’s a PDF available on my website , I’ve chosen to post a slightly modified version here as well in order to better facilitate discussion. Disclaimers and Context I want to start with a couple of disclaimers and some context. First, I want to point out that although I’ve read a lot about double-blind review, this isn’t my research area and the research discussed in this post is not my own. As a result, I probably can’t answer super detailed questions about these studies. I also want to note that I’m not opposed to open peer review — I was a free and open source software developer for over ten years and I care a great deal about openness and transparency. Rather, my motivation in writing this post is simply to create awareness of and to initiate discussion about the benefits of double-blind review. Lastly, and most importantly, I think it’s e
4 0.65181822 255 hunch net-2007-07-13-The View From China
Introduction: I’m visiting Beijing for the Pao-Lu Hsu Statistics Conference on Machine Learning. I had several discussions about the state of Chinese research. Given the large population and economy, you might expect substantial research—more than has been observed at international conferences. The fundamental problem seems to be the Cultural Revolution which lobotimized higher education, and the research associated with it. There has been a process of slow recovery since then, which has begun to be felt in the research world via increased participation in international conferences and (now) conferences in China. The amount of effort going into construction in Beijing is very impressive—people are literally building a skyscraper at night outside the window of the hotel I’m staying at (and this is not unusual). If a small fraction of this effort is later focused onto supporting research, the effect could be very substantial. General growth in China’s research portfolio should be expecte

Introduction: The New York Machine Learning Symposium is October 19 with a 2 page abstract deadline due September 13 via email with subject “Machine Learning Poster Submission” sent to physicalscience@nyas.org. Everyone is welcome to submit. Last year’s attendance was 246 and I expect more this year. The primary experiment for ICML 2013 is multiple paper submission deadlines with rolling review cycles. The key dates are October 1, December 15, and February 15. This is an attempt to shift ICML further towards a journal style review process and reduce peak load. The “not for proceedings” experiment from this year’s ICML is not continuing. Edit: Fixed second ICML deadline.
