Aside from being an excellent overview of NeurIPS 2020 papers on this topic, I found it curious that several of them were anonymous.
Are anonymously submitted papers becoming (more) common? If so, what's driving this?
- gwern 6y agoI'd assume they just haven't been unblinded yet.
- webmaven 6y agoHmm. Shouldn't papers all be unblinded at once when acceptances/rejections are sent out?
- dkislyuk 6y agoThese are workshop submissions (which typically implies a more lightweight review process, for more exploratory work), and it is possible the same submissions are currently in blind review for other conferences in their final form.
- webmaven 6y ago> [I]t is possible the same submissions are currently in blind review for other conferences in their final form. Ah, that makes sense.
- duvenaud 6y agoThey were all unblinded weeks ago, the authors are listed on the workshop website: https://beyondbackprop.github.io/ https://beyondbackprop.github.io/
- webmaven 6y agoSo, at this point, the most likely explanation seems to be that TFA was written prior to the unblinding, and then wasn't subsequently reviewed or updated before publication.
