    • societal considerations of representation learning including fairness, safety, privacy, and interpretability, and explainability
    • visualization or interpretation of learned representations
    • implementation issues, parallelization, software platforms, hardware
    • climate, sustainability
    • applications in audio, speech, robotics, neuroscience,  biology, or any other field

ICLR 2023

2.1 Key dates

The planned dates are as follow:

  • Abstract submission: Sept 21 (Anywhere on Earth)
  • Submission date: Sept 28 (Anywhere on Earth)
  • Reviews released: Nov 4
  • Final decisions: Jan 20

  • Review Release: November 4, 2022
  • Discussion Stage 1:  November 4 - November 18
    • Discussions among Reviewers/Authors/Public.
    • Anyone may post comments, but they must be logged in, and their names will be shown. Reviewers remain anonymous 
    • Authors can update their draft until Nov 18.
  • Discussion Stage 2 - November 18 - December 12
    • Discussions among authors, reviewers and AC (authors can’t update their submissions during this time)
    • [new this year] ACs will meet with reviewers for borderline papers
    • ACs encourage reviewers to acknowledge and respond to author responses.
  • In addition, authors can post "official comments" about their paper before the discussion stages, and restrict visibility to reviewers, area chairs, or program chairs as appropriate. For example, this functionality can be used to post links to supplementary material.

2.2 双盲

  • Authors can revise their paper as many times as needed up to the paper submission deadline.
  • Changes to the paper will not be allowed while the paper is being reviewed.
  • During the discussion phase (between area chairs, reviewers and authors), edits will again be allowed;
    • a pdfdiff will be done against the submission at the paper submission deadline.
    • Area chairs and reviewers reserve the right to ignore changes that are significant from the original scope of the paper. 

2.3 submission instructions

  • This year we are asking authors to submit paper abstracts by the abstract submission deadline of Sept 21, 2022.
  • Please note that no changes on the authors and their orders can be made after the abstract submission deadline.
  • Also please make sure that all authors have an OpenReview profile with the latest information. 
  • Abstracts submitted by the abstract submission deadline must be genuine, placeholder or duplicate abstracts will be removed.
  • It is key that authors submit genuine and informative abstracts that reflect the content of the full submission, as abstracts will be used in Area Chair bidding before the final paper submission deadline. 

  • The full paper submission deadline is Sept 28, 2022.
  • Abstracts and papers must be submitted using the conference submission system at: https://openreview.net/group?id=ICLR.cc/2023/Conference.
  • The submission site will be open on Aug 22, 2022.  

2.4  论文长度

  • There will be a strict upper limit of 9 pages for the main text of the submission, with unlimited additional pages for citations. This page limit applies to both the initial and final camera ready version.
  • Authors may use as many pages of appendices (after the bibliography) as they wish, but reviewers are not required to read the appendix.

Q: Should the appendices be added as a separate PDF or in the same PDF as the main paper?

Either is allowed: you can include the appendices at the end of the main pdf after the references, or you can include it as a separate file for the supplementary materials.

2.5  论文格式

  • To prepare your submission to ICLR 2023, please use the LaTeX style files provided at:

https://github.com/ICLR/Master-Template/raw/master/iclr2023.zip

 2.6 openreview 讨论

Authors are strongly encouraged to participate in the public discussion of their paper, as well as of any other paper submitted to the conference. Submissions and reviews are both anonymous. For detailed instructions about the format of the paper, please visit www.iclr.cc.

2.7 源码

  • Source code associated with a paper can be uploaded as part of the supplementary material.
  • Code submission gives more information to reviewers, especially for replicability of the paper.
  • We encourage all authors to submit code as part of their submission.
  • Note that reviewers are encouraged, but not required to review supplementary material during the review process.
  • All supplementary code must be self-contained and zipped into a single file or can be downloaded via an anonymous URL.
  • Note that supplementary material will be visible to reviewers and the public throughout and after the review period, and ensure all material is anonymized.

You can share your code in three ways:

  1. Anonymize your code, put it in a .zip file and submit it as supplementary materials.
  2. Make an anonymous repository and put the link in your paper. The above methods will make your code public, along with your paper and reviews/comments for the paper.
  3. After we open the discussion forums for all submitted papers, make a comment directed to the reviewers and area chairs and put a link to an anonymous repository. This method will let you keep your code visible only to the reviewers and ACs for your paper.

2.8 补充文档

We encourage authors to submit a single file (paper + supplementary text) this year. Please mark the supplementary material clearly. 

2.9 复现可能性

  • It is important that the work published in ICLR is reproducible.
  • Authors are strongly encouraged to include a paragraph-long Reproducibility Statement at the end of the main text (before references) to discuss the efforts that have been made to ensure reproducibility.
  • This paragraph should not itself describe details needed for reproducing the results, but rather reference the parts of the main paper, appendix, and supplemental materials that will help with reproducibility.
  • For example,
    • for novel models or algorithms, a link to a anonymous downloadable source code can be submitted as supplementary materials;
    • for theoretical results, clear explanations of any assumptions and a complete proof of the claims can be included in the appendix;
    • for any datasets used in the experiments, a complete description of the data processing steps can be provided in the supplementary materials.
  • Each of the above are examples of things that can be referenced in the reproducibility statement. This optional reproducibility statement will not count toward the page limit, but should not be more than 1 page.

2.10 道德规范和道德声明

  • Authors are encouraged to include a paragraph of Ethics Statement (at the end of the main text before references) to address potential concerns where appropriate,
  • opics include, but are not limited to,
    • studies that involve human subjects,
    • practices to data set releases,
    • potentially harmful insights,
    • methodologies and applications,
    • pontential conflicts of interest and sponsorship,
    • discrimination/bias/fairness concerns,
    • privacy and security issues, legal compliance,
    • and research integrity issues (e.g., IRB, documentation, research ethics).
  • The optional ethic statement will not count toward the page limit, but should not be more than 1 page.  

Q: If my submission does not have any ethics issues to the best of our knowledge, do I still need to include an Ethics Statement? 

No, there is no need to include an Ethics Statement for all submissions. Submissions with potential ethics issues (such as study involving human subjects, dataset with sensitive information, etc) should consider including an ethics statement.
