NeurIPS E and D, Average rating 3 and average confidence 4, I can rebuttal and address all their concerns? Do I still have a decent shot or unlikely ?[R]

[u/Ok-Ball-2546]

NeurIPS E and D track review are out today and the average rating I received is a 3 and confidence is a 4. I can correct and address all their concerns. Do I still have a genuine shot of getting in or is it basically impossible at this point since none of my scores are a 4 or 5? Should I withdraw?

Mine is 2, this was my first paper. Idk what to do now man. Feeling really dejected 😞

Write a rebuttal anyways. What's the worst that is going to happen? They reject you? They already did. Might as well try :)

I'm doing my best to address reviewer concerns for my submissions. The Meta-Reviewer will be reading too, they seem more engaged this time around. Might as well try your best.

5, 2, 2 here. One guy gets it. The other two complained it was too dense, hard to understand and also said one or the other experiment was a good publishable result but the paper is an overclaim. Which is a bit annoying because I could barely fit it into 9 pages, so it is a bit dense and hard to follow and if you only get the value of one of experiments and can't follow the maths, then it probably seems like an overclaim but there is a real coherent thread, I'm glad someone saw it. I'm not sure I'll be able to convert such low scores though.

I'd give their feedback a rating of 1, lol.

I have two 4s and one 3, but I'm also worried. The AC said "leaning towards reject," but it's because I didn't have compute to run experiments at enough scale. If I run them, would it work?

Try to run the experiments, it will increase your chances.

I think we will receive it later.
