About DSAA'2020
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 7th IEEE/ACM/ASA 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://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/sgu9C0YKgRs4WZRqHD4E0O?domain=ieee.org
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.
