Dear all,
We are excited to invite submissions to the SCI-FM (Scientific Transparency in Foundation Models) Workshop at ICLR 2025, which will take place in beautiful Singapore between April 27-28th! Foundation models (FMs) have transformed AI research, but their scientific transparency remains a challenge. Our workshop aims to advance open science, reproducibility, and the sharing of open-source models and datasets to benefit the global research community.
We welcome contributions that explore key aspects of FMs, including dataset curation, evaluation methodologies, innovative training strategies, and open replication of proprietary systems. The workshop will feature poster presentations, selected oral talks, and outstanding paper awards.
