################################################### ICML 2013 Call for Papers ################################################### The 30th International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML 2013) will be held at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis, in Atlanta Georgia, from June 16 to 21, 2013. The conference will consist of one day of tutorials, followed by three days of main conference sessions, followed by two days of workshops. All topics related to machine learning are eligible for papers, tutorials or workshops. This year there will be three reviewing cycles for main conference papers. This is an experimental step toward a merger of conference and journal formats --- ICML may ultimately have six two-month reviewing cycles per year. Accepted papers will appear on-line shortly after acceptance and will be available for citation at that time. As of now we are still calling ICML a conference rather than a journal. A good discussion of the issues of merging conference and journal formats can be found in http://www.vldb.org/pvldb/papers/p40-jagadish.pdf by H. V. Jagadish. Main Conference Paper Dates: Cycle I paper submissions due October 1, 2012 Cycle I author response period November 11 15, 2012 Cycle I author notification December 4, 2012 Cycle I final version submission due January 7, 2013 Cycle II paper submissions due December 15, 2012 Cycle II author response period January 23 27, 2013 Cycle II author notification February 15, 2013 Cycle II final version submission due March 15, 2013 Cycle III paper submissions due February 15, 2013, submission server is now open Cycle III author response period March 15-22, 2013 Cycle III author notification April 15, 2013 Cycle III final version submission due May 8, 2013 Some fraction of papers declined in cycle I will be invited to resubmit with modifications in cycle III. Papers declined in cycle II will not be eligible for resubmission to ICML 2013. Workshops Dates: Workshop proposal deadline Jan 31, 2013 Acceptance notification Feb 15, 2013 Workshop submissions due Mar 15, 2013 (suggested date) Workshop author notification Apr 15, 2013 (suggested date) Workshops June 20-21, 2013 Tutorials Dates: Tutorial proposal deadline Jan 31, 2013 Acceptance notification Mar 1, 2013 Tutorials June 16, 2013 Orals, Spotlights, Invited Speakers and a Banquet Accepted papers will each have either a full oral presentation or a shorter spotlight presentation as well as a poster in an evening poster session. There will also be talks by invited speakers, an opening reception, and a banquet. Paper Format and Electronic Submission The submission of papers and the management of the paper reviewing process for the main conference will be entirely electronic. Submissions for a given reviewing cycle will be accepted until 23:59 Universal Time (3:59pm Pacific Daylight Time) on the date of the deadline. Detailed formatting and submission instructions for authors will be available on the conference web site. Dual Submission Policy Submitted papers must not be substantially similar to (50% or more overlap) another paper currently under review, or accepted for publication, in a journal, conference or workshop with archival proceedings (where proceedings are assigned an ISBN number). Similarly, authors must withdraw their papers if they submit an overlapping paper to a different archival venue during the ICML review period. If a paper submitted to ICML 2013 is found to significantly overlap another published or submitted paper at another archival venue then the ICML submission may be rejected on the grounds of being a dual submission. To keep things simple in this experimental year, the not for proceedings option of ICML 2012 will not be available in 2013. Reviewing Criteria Accepted papers must contain significant novel results. Results can be either theoretical or empirical. Results will be judged on the degree to which they have been objectively established and/or their potential for scientific and technological impact.
