Topics

We accept submissions on all topics related to Continual Learning. These topics include but are not limited to: 

• Lifelong / Continual / Incremental / Online Learning

• Few-shot Learning & Transfer Learning

• Benchmarks, evaluation protocols and metrics

• Applications and use-cases of Continual Learning

• Bio-inspired learning (memory, synaptic plasticity and more)

• Curiosity

• Multitask Learning

Submission

All papers must be submitted online through the CMT submission system: https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/CLVISION2023/ 

Guidelines

• We accept submissions of max 8 pages on Continual Learning and related topics. We encourage submission of 4 page works.

• Submitted manuscripts should use the CVPR 2023 paper template and be anonymized. Peer review is under double-blind policy.

• There is an archival track and a non-archival track. Accepted papers of both tracks will be made available on the workshop webpage and presented during the workshop. Papers accepted to the archival track will also be published in the proceedings.

• At the time of submission, authors must indicate to which track the paper is submitted.

• Guidelines specific to the archival track:

  • Papers must have a minimum of 4 pages (and max 8 pages). These page limits are excluding references and supplementary material.

  • Dual submission are not allowed. Papers submitted to the archival track must be original research. It is not allowed to submit a paper substantially similar in content to a paper that has been accepted or is under consideration at another archival venue (conference or workshop with proceedings). During the review process, or after acceptance, papers submitted to this track cannot be submitted to another archival venue, unless substantial new material is added.

• Guidelines specific to the non-archival track:

  • There is no minimum number of pages, only a maximum of 8 pages (excluding references and supplementary material).

  • Dual submissions are allowed for the non-archival track, although we do not accept papers that have been published more than a year ago or that have been presented during previous editions of this workshop.

  • The goal of the non-archival track is to give authors an opportunity to present recent work to the continual learning community. The review process for this track will be relatively light and will mainly focus on whether the topic of the paper is suitable for this workshop.

Presentation Guidelines

All accepted papers will be presented as posters. Some papers will additionally be selected for an oral presentation.

Awards

As in previous years, we expect to offer a best paper award.

FAQ

• Will accepted papers be published in the proceedings?
  Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings only if upon submission the archival track is chosen. This choice must be made in CMT when submitting the paper.
  
  

• Do you accept already-published papers?
  Dual submissions are allowed in the non-archival track of the workshop, but not in the archival track. In the non-archival track you can submit papers that have already been published, but only if they have been published less than a year ago and if they have not been presented during a previous edition of this workshop.
  
  

• Is there a page limit?
  For the archival track, submission must be at least 4 and at most 8 pages (excluding references and supplementary material).
  For the non-archival track, any number of pages is accepted as long as it is less than or equal to 8 (excluding references and supplementary material).
  
  

• Is supplementary material allowed?
  Yes. Submitting code (for example by including a link to an anonymous GitHub repo) and other supplementary materials that help reproducibility are highly encouraged. Supplementary material does not count towards the page limits. Note however that reviewers are not obliged to check the supplementary material.
  
  

• Is it allowed to include the supplementary material along with the main paper as a single pdf?
  For the initial submission this is fine. Only for the camera ready version of submissions accepted to the archival track, the main paper and the supplementary material will need to be separated.
