About IEEE DSAA'2020

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The IEEE International Conference on Data Science and Advanced Analytics (DSAA) 

features its strong interdisciplinary synergy between statistics (via ASA), computing 

and information/intelligence sciences (IEEE and ACM), and cross-domain interactions 

between academia and business for data science and analytics. DSAA sets up a high 

standard for its organizing committee, keynote speeches, submissions to main conference

and special sessions, and a competitive rate for paper acceptance. DSAA has been widely

recognized as a dedicated flagship in data science and analytics such as by the Google

Metrics and China Computer Foundation as an influential event in the area.

The 7th IEEE International Conference on Data Science and Advanced Analytics (DSAA’2020) 

will provide a premier forum that brings together researchers, industry and government 

practitioners, as well as developers and users in statistics, computing science, and 

intelligence science for the exchange of the latest theoretical developments in Data 

Science and Analytics and the best practice for a wide range of applications. The conference 

invites submission of papers describing innovative research on all aspects of data science 

and advanced analytics as well as application-oriented papers that make significant, original, 

and reproducible contributions to improving the practice of data science and analytics in 

real-world scenarios.

DSAA’2020 is a dual-track conference consisting of a Research Track and an Research Track. 

DSAA’2020 will also feature a peer-reviewed Student Poster session and an Industry Poster session,

whose purpose is to showcase recent and early-stage research developments on topics that 

are of interest to students and industry/government practitioners in data science and analytics.

Industry Poster

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DSAA’2020 will feature a peer-reviewed Industry Poster session to showcase state-of-the-art 

and early-stage research developments by industry, government and NGO policy-makers and 

practitioners in data science and analytics on topics that are of interest to either the 

research or the application of data science and analytics. The Industry Poster caters for 

the industry preference of sharing the case studies, experience and lessons, and insights 

and impacts without a full-length presentation as for the main conference.

All accepted poster papers will be presented in the Industry Poster sessions, specifications 

for preparing the posters for presenting at the conference poster sessions will be given separately, 

please check the DSAA'2020 for update.

Student Poster

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DSAA’2020 will feature a peer-reviewed Student Poster session to showcase state-of-the-art 

and early-stage research developments by students in data science and analytics disciplines 

on topics that are of interest to either the research or the application of data science 

and analytics.

All accepted poster papers will be presented in the Student Poster sessions, specifications 

for preparing the posters for presenting at the conference poster sessions will be given separately, 

please check the DSAA'2020 for update.

Poster Submission Formatting, Length, and Double-blind Reviewing

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The length for both Industry Poster and Student Poster papers is a maximum of two (2) pages.

The format for both Poster papers is the standard 2-column U.S. letter style IEEE Conference 

template.  See the IEEE Proceedings Author Guidelines: 

https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html for further 

information and instructions.

All submissions will be blind reviewed by the Program Committee on the basis of technical quality,

relevance to the conference’s topics of interest, originality, significance, and clarity. 

Author names and affiliations must not appear in the submissions, and bibliographic references 

must be adjusted to preserve author anonymity. Submissions failing to comply with paper formatting 

and authors anonymity will be rejected without reviews.

Because of the double-blind review process, non-anonymous papers that have been issued as technical 

reports or similar cannot be considered for DSAA’2020. An exception to this rule applies to arXiv 

papers that were published in arXiv at least a month prior to DSAA’2020 submission deadline. 

Authors can submit these arXiv papers to DSAA provided that the submitted paper’s title and abstract 

are different from the one appearing in arXiv. Papers that appear in arXiv from the DSAA’2020 

submission deadline until the review process has ended, are not allowed.

Proceedings, Indexing and Special Issues

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All accepted poster papers will be published by IEEE in the DSAA main conference proceedings

under the Industry and Student Poster schemes. All accepted poster papers will be submitted 

for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. The conference proceedings will be submitted 

for EI indexing through INSPEC by IEEE.

Submission

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Submissions to the DSAA’2020 Industry/Student Poster track are available from 

Easy Chair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dsaa2020) by choosing the Industry or Student Poster Track.

Important Policies

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reproducibility & supplementary: The advancement of data science depends heavily on reproducibility. 

We strongly recommend that the authors release their code and data to the public. Authors can provide 

an optional two (2) page supplement at the end of their submitted paper (it needs to be in the same PDF 

file and start on page 11). This supplement can only be used to include (i) information necessary for 

reproducing the experimental results reported in the paper (e.g., various algorithmic and model 

parameters and configurations, hyper-parameter search spaces, details related to dataset filtering 

and train/test splits, software versions, detailed hardware configuration, etc.), and (ii) any data, 

pseudo-code and proofs that due to space limitations, could not be included in the main manuscript. 

Papers entering into the Best Application Paper awards must show solid evidence for reproducibility.

Authorship: The list of authors at the time of submission is final and cannot be changed.

Dual submissions: DSAA is an archival publication venue as such submissions that have been previously 

published, accepted, or are currently under-review at peer-review publication venues (i.e., journals, 

conferences, workshops with published proceedings, etc.) are not permitted. DSAA has a strict no dual 

submission policy.

Conflicts of interest (COI): COIs must be declared at the time of submission. COIs include employment 

at the same institution at the time of submission or in the past three years, collaborations during 

the past three years, advisor/advisee relationships, plus family and close friends. Program chairs, 

poster chairs, special session chairs and tutorial chairs are not allowed to submit proposals to their 

managed tracks and sessions.

Registration and presentation: At least one author of each accepted paper must register

in full and present the paper online. No-show papers will be removed from the 

IEEE Xplore proceedings.
