The Neural Information Processing Systems Conference 2013 
http://nips.cc/Conferences/2013/ has a Demonstration Track running in 
parallel with the evening Poster Sessions, December 5-7, 2013, in Lake 
Tahoe, Nevada, USA.

Demonstration Proposal Deadline: Monday September 16, 2013, 11pm Universal 
Time (4pm Pacific Daylight Time).

Demonstrations offer a unique opportunity to showcase:

• Hardware technology
• Software systems
• Neuromorphic and biologically-inspired systems
• Robotics

or other systems, which are relevant to the technical areas covered by 
NIPS (see Call for Papers http://nips.cc/Conferences/2013/CallForPapers).

Demonstrations must show novel technology and must be run live, preferably 
with some interactive parts. Unlike poster presentations or slide shows, 
live action and interaction with the audience are critical elements.


Submissions:

Submission of demo proposals at the following URL: 
https://nips.cc/Demonstrators/

You will be asked to fill a questionnaire and describe clearly:

• the technology demonstrated
• the elements of novelty
• the live action part
• the interactive part
• the equipment brought by the demonstrator
• the equipment required at the place of the demo

Evaluation Criteria: Submissions will be refereed on the basis of 
technical quality, novelty, live action, and potential for interaction.

Demonstration chair: Russ Salakhutdinov <demonstration-chair at nips.cc>
