Solicited Topics

This workshop aims to facilitate progress towards improving the distributional robustness of models trained on sequential data by bringing together researchers to tackle a wide variety of research questions. We encourage submissions on topics including but not limited to:

• How well do existing robustness methods work on sequential data, and when or why do they succeed or fail?
• Can we directly predict or otherwise characterize the performance of models on sequential data under distribution shifts?
• How can we leverage the sequential nature of data to develop novel and distributionally robust methods?
• What kinds of guarantees can we derive on predictive performance under distribution shifts, and how can we formalize these shifts?

Dates

• Submission deadline: October 2nd, 2022 (Anywhere on Earth)
• Decision notification: October 20th, 2022
• Workshop event: December 2nd, 2022, In-person in New Orleans, LA, USA.
