Abstract

There is no doubt that research in our field has become more data driven. And while the term data science might suggest there is some science without data, it is data the feeds our systems, trains our networks, and tests our results. Recently we have seen examples of a few conferences experimenting with their review process to gain new insights. For those of us in the Multimedia (MM) community, it is not an entirely new thing. In 2013, I led an effort along with my TPC Co-Chairs to look at the past several years of conferences and examine the reviewing system, the process, the scores, and the reviewer load. Additionally, we ran surveys to the authors (accepted and rejected) and the reviewers and ACs to gauge how we did. This was presented at the business meeting in Barcelona along with the suggestion that this practice continues. While this was met with great praise, it was never repeated.
