We are looking for reviewers, please register here.

Submission Format

Our workshop accepts archival (opt-in after acceptance) and non-archival (published or unpublished) submissions for three distinct tracks:

1) Main Track

2) Flash Track

3) Lessons Learned Track

We also invite researchers to present related and previously published work at this workshop. If you are interested, email us.

🚨Pre-Reviewed Submissions🚨

Researchers are welcome to submit papers that have undergone a review process at other venues, such as ARR or COLM, particularly in cases of prior rejections.

If you choose to submit such a paper, you must include the complete reviews, encompassing both the text and scores, from the original review process in your submission’s appendix. Any meta-reviews that were provided should also be included if available.

Furthermore, you have the option to include a one-page response letter within the appendix. This letter provides an opportunity to address the (meta-)reviews and elaborate on how you may have revised your paper in response to the feedback received. Pre-Reviewed submissions will be managed via a separate OpenReview event.

Presentation Format

Submissions of all tracks will be presented as posters at the workshop. We will also invite selected submissions for a short talk (5-15 minutes). Please note: At least one author must attend the workshop in person for talks.
