General Information
The Tutorials Chair of GECCO 2023 invites domain experts to submit proposals for presenting a tutorial at GECCO 2023. The NON-EXTENSIBLE deadline is:
- Proposals for tutorials:
November 27, 2022 - Acceptance Decision:
December 9, 2022
If you submitted a proposal you can view it via the My Info page.
Tutorials at GECCO 2023 will provide an excellent opportunity to learn about current theory and practice in evolutionary computation from domain experts. We are now inviting proposals for tutorials. Each tutorial is expected to be 110 minutes long. We encourage the inclusion of interactive activities and demos.
Tutorials will be free to all GECCO 2023 attendees. We strongly encourage tutorials in hybrid mode rather than online only.
Accepted tutorials' slide sets will be published as part of a Companion volume to the conference proceedings in the ACM Digital library.
One instructor/presenter of each accepted tutorial will get a discounted registration. The discount can be divided among tutorial instructors if there is more than one. Each presenter is eligible for only a single tutorial discount, i.e., it is not possible to aggregate discounts from more tutorials. If a tutorial instructor is also presenting papers/workshop papers/posters, this discount is halved (i.e., 50% shared between speakers).
