The workshop is a one-day event with invited speakers, oral presentations, and posters. The event brings together faculty, graduate students, research scientists, and engineers for an opportunity to connect and exchange ideas. There will be a panel discussion and a mentoring session to discuss current research trends and career choices in artificial intelligence and machine learning. While all presenters will identify primarily as latinx, all are invited to attend.

We strongly encourage students, postdocs, and researchers who primarily identify as LatinX in all areas of Machine Learning to submit extended abstracts describing new or work-in-progress research. We welcome submissions in theory, methodology, and applications. Submissions will be peer-reviewed and abstracts which are selected to present will be invited to submit a camera-ready version of their full paper to be included in the Journal of LatinX in AI Research (JLXAIR). Specifically, we allow two type of submissions:

• Archival: Must be blind for the double-blind review process. Accepted works on this category will be published in the JLXAIR as proceedings.

• Non-archival: May be submitted to any venue in the future. Previously published work can also be submitted as non-archival, with the additional requirement to state in the first page the original publication source.

Authors of accepted abstracts will be asked to present their work in a poster session. A few authors will be selected to give oral presentations. Authors accepted to present will be offered presentation coaching. 

While the presenting author need not to be the first author of the work, authors are asked to highlight the contribution of LatinX individuals — particularly the presenting author. This information should be included at the end of the extended abstract (after references) as an unnumbered section. Furthermore, although the event focuses primarily on researchers who identify as LatinX, everyone is invited to attend. Authors are also encouraged to sign up to review for LXAI.

Submissions will be double-blind peer-reviewed and should be submitted as a PDF file through OpenReview. All submissions must be in English and strictly follow the guidelines provided by the ICML 2024 Paper Writing Best Practices to avoid the risk of being rejected without consideration of their merits. Each extended abstract should have up to four pages (including figures, and tables) and excluding references and appendices.
