Hi All,

I’m new to Machine Learning research. I have prepared a research papers (This paper discusses about application of unsupervised feature learning techniques for source code author identification) and want to submit for a research conference. After searching the Internet I found out about ICML conference. But It seems like quality of my papers is not adequate enough for that conference. So can somebody suggest me some other places to submit my work.

Thanks,

Upul

Going by the topic of the paper, I would not shy away from conferences like KDD, NAACL, ACL, and ICDM. All of these have application tracks. Also watch out for workshops in these conferences that are relavent. Certain programming language and systems conferences might also have tracks that welcome this sort of work. See: http://campus.acm.org/calendar/Index.cfm?Sponsor=SIGPLAN

If you think your paper is not a fit for ICML because its "quality is not adequate enough" then neither of these conferences would be happy to accept such papers. So improving the quality of your work, by identifying where it lacks, getting it reviewed for language and technical errors, adding more experiments/datasets, improving the exposition, possibly adding an application/real-life case study, etc should be your priority.

ICMLA (http://www.icmla-conference.org/, ICML and Applications) seems like an appropriate conference. But as others have mentioned, the quality of the paper should be the same regardless of the conference you submit to.

The easiest way to work out where to publish is to have a look at the papers you have cited in your research. Do a few of them appear in the same journal/conference? Do the better ones appear in one journal?

If that doesn't help, pick the most relevant papers to yours and see who they cited, and have a look at who is the editor of the journal/conference. If you recognize the name, it's a good sign that that is a good place to publish.
