Key Points

  • The post asks about NeurIPS OpenReview submission rules, specifically whether a paper PDF can be uploaded after the abstract deadline and whether an initial upload is required to enable later updates.
  • It also asks how to submit code URLs in OpenReview, including whether the URL can be added later or must be provided upfront.
  • A further question is how NeurIPS prevents or restricts pushing or updating code after the paper deadline.
  • The author notes this is their first NeurIPS submission and seeks guidance on the submission workflow and enforcement mechanisms.

Hi,

I have a question about openreview procedure as in the title. It’s my first time submitting to neurips so I’m unsure.

Also for code URL submission can I do the same or should I put an URL in first? And side question, but does anyone know how neurips prevent people from pushing codes after paper deadline?

Thank you in advance!
