The First Asian Conference on Machine Learning (ACML 2009) was held
at Nanjing, China during November 2–4, 2009.This was the ?rst
edition of a series of annual conferences which aim to provide a
leading international forum for researchers in machine learning and
related ?elds to share their new ideas and research ?ndings. This
year we received 113 submissions from 18 countries and regions in
Asia, Australasia, Europe and North America. The submissions went
through a r- orous double-blind reviewing process. Most submissions
received four reviews, a few submissions received ?ve reviews,
while only several submissions received three reviews. Each
submission was handled by an Area Chair who coordinated discussions
among reviewers and made recommendation on the submission. The
Program Committee Chairs examined the reviews and meta-reviews to
further guarantee the reliability and integrity of the reviewing
process. Twenty-nine - pers were selected after this process. To
ensure that important revisions required by reviewers were
incorporated into the ?nal accepted papers, and to allow
submissions which would have - tential after a careful revision,
this year we launched a “revision double-check” process. In short,
the above-mentioned 29 papers were conditionally accepted, and the
authors were requested to incorporate the “important-and-must”re-
sionssummarizedbyareachairsbasedonreviewers’comments.Therevised?nal
version and the revision list of each conditionally accepted paper
was examined by the Area Chair and Program Committee Chairs. Papers
that failed to pass the examination were ?nally rejected.
