Submission Instructions

Please submit your abstracts via OpenReview . Submission requires an OpenReview account. Profiles created without an institutional email undergo a moderation process that can take up to two weeks—we encourage participants to create an account in advance.

There are two submission options:

1. Previously published work
If you wish to present a paper published in a peer-reviewed venue on or after 1 September 2025, you may submit the camera-ready PDF. Please do not submit preprints, workshop papers, or non-archival work.

2. Unpublished research
Please use the official templates ( LaTex, Word, Overleaf) and follow the formatting instructions provided. Do not exceed the 2-page limit or modify fonts, margins, or line spacing. Non-compliant submissions may be desk-rejected.

Review

Reviews will be single-blind: authors’ identities will be visible to reviewers, but reviewers will remain anonymous. Reviews will not be published. Those interested in reviewing may apply via this form.

The conference programme will be published on OpenReview, including accepted abstract PDFs. Due to copyright restrictions, the full texts of journal articles will not be published; they will be referenced by DOI/URL. Rejected and withdrawn submissions will not be made public.

Dual Submission Policy

We welcome works that are unpublished, under review at another venue, or published in a peer-reviewed archival venue on or after 1 September 2025. Preprints and workshop papers (e.g., NeurIPS/ICML/ICLR workshops) are considered non-archival and are eligible.

Use of Large Language Models (LLMs)

The use of LLMs is permitted as a general-purpose tool. Authors and reviewers bear full responsibility for all content submitted under their name, including text generated by LLMs. LLMs cannot be credited as authors and must not be used in ways that constitute plagiarism or scientific misconduct.
