[iva] [CfP] Final CfP for the IVA 2021 Doctoral Consortium

[Daniel J. Rea]

Overview

The IVA Doctoral Consortium is a venue for early-career researchers to meet and discuss their research with other rising stars and experienced mentors in their field. The DC will be open to Ph.D. students with research relevant to the field, and will be judged on a 2 page abstract of their doctoral research. Accepted authors will attend a short workshop prior to the conference with other accepted authors, where they will present and discuss their work to their peers, participate in talks by leaders in the field, and meet colleagues and mentors that will become future collaborators and friends. The IVA Doctoral Consortium aims to be highly selective, and will choose applicants based on their research ability, potential, and engagement with the community. Topics are open to any IVA research (see the conference overview for a topic list).

Submissions are due July 15th, 2021
Send your submissions to:  workshop_dc at ml.iva2021.org


Who can submit:
Any student enrolled in a doctoral program whose research is of interest to the IVA community can apply.


What to submit:
A two-page extended abstract in which the applicant ties together their past, current, and/or proposed work, within the context of the overarching research question(s) addressed by their work. This may be followed by up to one page of references. This page of references is not counted as part of the two page total. All extended abstracts must be submitted in PDF format and conform to the general ACM SIG format. Templates are available at this link (https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template  - sigconf.tex or interim_layout.docx). In addition, ACM has partnered with Overleaf, where you can start writing in the format directly.

The extended abstract should cover the key research questions of their dissertation with their motivation, and a brief overview of the most important related work. The abstract should highlight the core approach of the student’s thesis, a high level overview of any results to date, as well as expected outcomes and impact.

Applicants should also submit a 2-page research-oriented CV.


How it will be judged:
Submissions to the IVA DC will be judged on quality of submission, potential research impact of the dissertation, a judgement on the potential benefits of the student’s participation in the consortium, and diversity consideration. Each application will be reviewed by at least two experts in IVA-related research.


Results:
Applicants will be notified by July 29th, 2021


Publication and Attendance:
Successful applicants only will be able to attend the online DC at this year’s IVA. It will  include free registration to the main conference. IVA DC attendees will be expected to attend the workshop, present and participate in the workshop, as well as present in the poster session of the main conference.
