Rules

• Only PhD students who did not have their PhD at the time of the last SPUDM conference are eligible.
• The PhD student should be the sole or first author and the work should be mainly that of the student. If co-authored, the paper is accompanied by a signed statement (PDF) from the co-author(s) to the effect that the student is credited as the primary source of ideas and the main author of this paper.
• The paper can be either published or unpublished at the moment of submission for the de Finetti competition.
• Submissions in dissertation format will not be considered, but articles based on a dissertation are encouraged.
• Only one paper may be submitted per applicant.
• There will be blind review. Applicants are asked for two versions of the submitted paper: an anonymous and a non-anonymous version.
• The anonymous version should be formatted as a manuscript (i.e., not a published journal article) with figures and tables integrated into the text. Please remove names, affiliations, and author notes for blind review.
• The non-anonymous version should contain names, affiliations, and author notes.
