OpenReview Submission Thread

Checklist before opening a PR

• I am opening a pull request against the main branch of the 2026 repo.

• My post and all associated references to it are all lowercase, i.e

    2026-04-27-Sample-Test.md               -> 2026-04-27-sample-test.md
    assets/img/2026-04-27-Sample-Test/ 	-> assets/img/2026-04-27-sample-test/
  

• The title of my PR is exactly the name of my markdown file

  • i.e. _posts/2026-04-27-[submission-name].md would require a PR name 2026-04-27-[submission-name]

• I have anonymized my post: my author's list is Anonymous, and there is no potential
  content which can reveal my/my collaborators identities.

• My post matches the formatting requirements, including (but not limited to):

  • I have ONLY MODIFIED files in the following locations (failure to do so will result in
    your PR automatically being closed!):
    • a Markdown (or HTML) file in _posts/ with the format _posts/2026-04-27-[submission-name].md (or .html)
    • static image assets added to assets/img/2026-04-27-[submission-name]/
    • interactive HTML figures added to assets/html/2026-04-27-[submission-name]/
    • citations in a bibtex file in assets/bibliography/2026-04-27-[submission-name].bib
  • I have a short 2-3 sentence abstract in the description field of my front-matter
  • I have a table of contents, formatted using the toc field of my front-matter

Hi Teerthaa,

The affiliations entry in your front matter is a separate list item rather than nested under your name. This means the site won't associate the affiliation with the author.

Current:

authors:
  - name: Teerthaa Parakh
  - affiliations:
      name: Georgia Institute of Technology

Should be:

authors:
  - name: Teerthaa Parakh
    affiliations:
      name: Georgia Institute of Technology

(Note: the - before affiliations needs to be removed so it's a property of the author, not a new list item.) Could you push a fix? Thanks!

Best,
ICLR Blog Post Track Team
