Abstract

The paper presents a model that will predict the acceptance of the paper for a particular conference. The model is designed for the conferences, which accept researches done researches in the Machine Learning domain. The dataset that is used to develop this model is the ICLR 2017 (International Conference Of Learning Representation). The model gives its prediction based on extracted features. The features that most of the conferences consider are Number of References, Number of Figures, Number of Tables, Bag of words for ML related terms, etc. Some more features are taken into consideration to give better results such as Length of Title, Frequency of ML related words, Number of ML algorithms, Average length of sentences. The model is trained on the above-mentioned dataset, which contains 70 accepted and 100 rejected papers. For the prediction, different Machine Learning algorithms are used. The model is trained by applying algorithms such as Logistic Regression, Decision Tree, Random Forest, KNN, and SVM. The comparative study of different algorithms on the dataset gives the result that Decision Tress works effectively by providing 85% accuracy.
