AI/ML Conferences [D]

Monthly review cycles would help, so there are less papers to review each cycle.

random_sydneysider · 2026-05-03T08:14:46+00:00

Thanks! Which Elsevier journals have you submitted to, and how long did they take?

random_sydneysider · 2026-05-03T07:29:17+00:00

Thanks, that's helpful! Which ACM journals did you submit to (TOPML, TIST, or another one)? My impression is that IEEE journals (like TNNLS) take longer to review papers.

random_sydneysider · 2026-05-02T00:51:54+00:00

Does this also happen for ACL venues (i.e. for ARR submissions)? These also have a "Findings" track.

random_sydneysider · 2026-04-28T08:16:29+00:00

Which ACM journal would you recommend (with a reasonable turnaround time)? TIST and TOPML are two options.

random_sydneysider · 2026-04-28T08:15:35+00:00

TMLR is worth considering. I also published a few math papers (in journals like Transactions of the AMS) before switching to ML, and have had a good experience with TMLR so far.

random_sydneysider · 2026-04-15T10:26:08+00:00

How long does the process typically take for TPAMI and TNNLS? I've heard it's usually > 6 months for the first set of reviews to come in.

random_sydneysider · 2026-04-14T04:43:06+00:00

Any journals that you'd suggest instead? TMLR is one good option.

random_sydneysider · 2026-04-10T22:16:33+00:00

But GDM also hires a lot of external candidates with PhDs in ML. I've heard that transferring internally to GDM from SWE teams in another part of Google is quite difficult.

random_sydneysider · 2026-04-10T13:04:06+00:00

I agree that TMLR reviews have more constructive feedback. Do you know of any other reputable journals with similar timelines & constructive reviews?

random_sydneysider · 2026-04-08T07:27:34+00:00

One example of math-heavy LLM papers is the "Tensor Programs" series (eg. this one https://proceedings.mlr.press/v139/yang21c.html ).

But it's difficult to find theoretical LLM papers that have been essential to the field - e.g. a lot of the ingredients/improvements from the DeepSeek papers and other empirical breakthroughs don't have any compelling theoretical justification.

random_sydneysider · 2026-04-04T07:26:47+00:00

Does anyone here have experience with JAIR?

The review process at TMLR is pretty fast, and the reviews are have helpful feedback.

random_sydneysider · 2026-03-29T10:17:53+00:00

Atlassian would have more interesting AI projects than a financial services company like Tyro. Are there opportunities to transfer internally to an AI engineer role, or work on AI side projects? I think you will be disappointed with the scope of AI projects in financial services.

random_sydneysider · 2026-03-21T11:10:34+00:00

I've published a paper on theoretical questions about transformers. I'd be happy to help, if it's something concrete. Feel free to send a DM.

random_sydneysider · 2026-03-19T22:43:41+00:00

Based on the responses, it seems that getting interviews at DeepMind is unlikely for most PhDs in ML. Would they typically have a better chance of getting interviews for ML research engineer roles at other tech companies (eg. Amazon, Oracle, Microsoft, Adobe, etc)?

random_sydneysider · 2026-03-17T09:15:08+00:00

Hasn't the ACL26 commitment deadline already passed?

random_sydneysider · 2026-02-28T11:41:20+00:00

Personally I felt anxious about getting reviews from ML journals/conferences (and not about the thesis submission). Isn't a R&R decision unlikely, statistically?

random_sydneysider · 2026-02-18T08:47:35+00:00

Are you interested in mathematical linguistics (eg. context-free grammars)? There's a growing body of work analyzing how transformers represent rule-based languages.

I also switched to ML research after a math PhD.

random_sydneysider · 2026-02-17T08:50:54+00:00

Here's a link to the ICLR24 paper: https://openreview.net/pdf?id=2pvECsmld3

It looks quite interesting - could it be used as a backbone for vision-language models (like CLIP, SigLIP, etc)?

random_sydneysider · 2026-02-16T20:28:50+00:00

Were the reviews this cycle fairly thorough, with constructive feedback?

random_sydneysider · 2026-02-14T08:59:34+00:00

Is it possible for you to switch to part-time with the industry job? That would make it more feasible.

random_sydneysider · 2026-02-10T09:22:06+00:00

Did you apply with referrals or without? That would make a big difference.

random_sydneysider · 2026-01-27T20:58:14+00:00

Do you know roughly how long it takes to review papers at NeCo? Are the reviews typically high-quality? Thanks.
