AISTATS 2024 paper reviews are supposed to be out today. I thought to create a discussion thread for us to discuss any issue/complain/celebration or anything else.
There is so much noise in the reviews every year. Some good work that the authors are proud of might get a low score because of the noisy system, given that AISTATS is growing large these years. We should keep in mind that the work is still valuable no matter what the score is.
I have a paper with BA/BR/BR/R but the BA guy says he’s willing to up it to an accept after rebuttal and the BR guys seem like they can be flipped. The R guy seems to *like* the paper. I have no clue why he rejected since nothing in his review says anything bad. What do you guys think?
If they didn’t say _anything_ bad at all, they may just have clicked the wrong button. It may actually be motivated to point this out in the message to the AC when submitting the rebuttal
