jxmnop · x · 2026-07-07
A researcher shared his thoughts on his paper winning an ICML award: the work was previously rejected by NeurIPS, but after revisions, it received positive reviews and an award at ICML (ICML received about 24,000 submissions this year, with only 7 awards given). He emphasized that the results came from months of continuous experiments and repeated polishing of details, encouraging researchers not to give up because of rejections.
