Accepted papers

Certifications. Accepted TMLR papers can be awarded a number of certifications by the action editors or editors-in-chief of TMLR. The current list of awarded certificates is (click on the badges to see the papers with the certification):

  • Featured This certification may be awarded to papers that are very high quality. These papers present significant contributions which are novel, clearly explained, and well supported with evidence, theory, or analysis. If this paper was submitted to a top-tier conference, it would likely be presented as an oral/spotlight.
  • Reproducibility This is awarded to papers whose primary purpose is reproduction of other published work. Beyond simple verification, the paper must contribute significant added value through additional baselines, analysis, ablations, or insights.
  • Survey The Survey Certificate is awarded to papers that not only meet the criteria for acceptance but also provide an exceptionally thorough or insightful survey of the topic or approach may be awarded this certification.
  • Expert The Expert Reviewer Certificate is awarded to papers whose authors include at least one TMLR Expert Reviewer.
  • Outstanding The editorial board of TMLR jointly awards this certification to papers which are deemed to be exceptionally high quality and broadly significant for the field. The certification may be given well after the paper's initial publication in TMLR (a year or more), and is equivalent to a best paper award at a top-tier conference.
  • Journal to Conference Awarded to publications based on responses by teh AE and reviewers, to the question of whether the work would be appropriate for the joint NeurIPS/ICLR/ICML Journal-to-Conference Track. Receiving this selective certification (or the Outstanding/Featured Certifications) enables an opportunity to present in this track at one of these participating conferences. See the track's website for details and the complete list of eligibility criteria.
  • Event TMLR papers that are presented at other conferences.
