Because of the fairly late release of the second contest data set we have had many requests for a deadline extension. We have thus decided to push back the deadline for all papers by two more weeks to October 22.

For fairness towards already submitted manuscripts, past submissions can also be revised and resubmitted until that date. We are looking forward to a lively contest and hope to see you at the conference!
