Precaution of COVID-19
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to ongoing uncertainty about future travel due to COVID-19, DSAA-20
commits to allowing video presentations of accepted papers by authors
who are unable to attend due to COVID-19 travel restrictions.

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.

Attendance: At least one author of each accepted paper must register in
full and attend the conference
to present the paper. No-show papers will be removed from the IEEE Xplore
proceedings.

Enquiries
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General enquiries about Industry or Student Poster paper submissions should
be submitted to ipc_dsaa20 at dsaa.co or spc_dsaa20 at dsaa.co
