Call For Tutorials

The ACML 2017 Organizing Committee invites proposals for tutorials to be
held at the 9th Asian Conference on Machine Learning, on Wed 15 Nov, 2017
at Yonsei University. (downtown of Seoul, Korea)

The conference aims at providing a leading international forum for
researchers in machine learning and related fields to share their new
results, ideas and discuss emerging topics. Submissions from inside and
outside the Asia-Pacific region are both highly encouraged.

We invite proposals for short tutorials on machine learning and related
fields. Ideally, the tutorial should attract a wide audience, provide a
broad coverage of core research problems in its chosen research area,
elucidate technical solutions, discuss their key insights, and stimulate
future work. The tutorial should be broad enough to provide a basic
introduction to the chosen area, but it should also be deep enough on the
most important topics. Presentations that exclusively focus on the
presenter's own work or commercial demonstrations are strongly discouraged.

Dates

Tutorial proposals due: 10 May, 2017
Acceptance notification: 20 July, 2017
Tutorial material/Website due: 20 Oct, 2017
ACML tutorials: 15 Nov, 2017

Two kinds of proposals are particularly welcomed. Firstly, proposals from
young researchers will be favorably reviewed. Secondly, joint
tutorial-workshop proposals, which share the same topic with a ACML 2017
workshop proposal, are also highly encouraged.

A proposal should be 2 pages long, plus the presenters' biographies. The
total duration of a tutorial should be approximately 2.5 hours (and added
time for breaks). A tutorial proposal should contain the following:

Title and abstract suitable for web publicity
Overview describing the topic
Relevance and significance of the topic for the machine learning community
Research areas and prior knowledge required of potential audience
A brief outline of the tutorial structure showing that the tutorial's core
content can be covered in 2.5 hours.
Work distribution in the case of multiple presenters
Samples of relevant past tutorials and teaching materials
Description of presentation medium (slides, multimedia, demos, etc.) and
technical equipment (e.g., internet access)
A brief academic bio for each proposed presenter, including name, email,
webpage, research expertise, and list of publications in tutorial area.

Proposals and questions should be submitted to Tutorial Co-chairs.
