############################################### ICML 2013 Call for Workshop Proposals ############################################### Proposals are solicited for workshops to be held in conjunction with the International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML) 2013 in Atlanta, USA. The workshops will be held on Thursday, June 20 and Friday June 21, 2013. These workshops present an excellent opportunity to address a specific machine-learning-related topic of your choice. We are looking for half-day, full-day, or two-day workshop proposals. Important dates: • Workshop proposal deadline Dec 1, 2012 • Acceptance notification Jan 1, 2013 • Workshop submissions due Mar 1, 2013 (suggested date) • Workshop author notification Mar 31, 2013 (suggested date) • Workshops June 20-21, 2013 Workshops are a great format for active research on new topics. The ideal workshop covers a compelling selection of current and upcoming research, and includes an impressive set of speakers and participants with diverse backgrounds. Research talks, discussion via panels, identification of open problems, and discussants are all great components to include. Organization The format, style, and content of accepted workshops are under the control of the workshop organizers and largely autonomous from the main conference. Each workshop day can be up to seven hours long, split into morning and afternoon sessions. Workshop organizers are expected to manage the workshop content, invite experts in the domain, specify the workshop format, be present to moderate, and maintain a website for the workshop. Workshop registration will be handled centrally by the main conference. Submission Instructions Proposals should clearly specify the following: • Workshop title (what is it called?) • Topic (what is it about?) • Motivation, impact, and expected outcomes (why this workshop?) • Organizer; co-organizers; bios (who is making it happen?) • Potential invited speakers; potential participants (who might come?) • Related publications (where can we learn more?) Detailed descriptions of last year's workshops can be found at: http://icml.cc/2012/workshops/ Workshop proposals should be submitted via email in PDF format to workshops@icml2013.org by Mar 1, 2013 (earlier submissions are encouraged as well). Proposals will be evaluated by the workshop chair and conference organizers, with an eye towards selecting high-quality workshops on a diverse set of topics that will inform and inspire the community.
