sorry, it seemed to cover most of the conferences I knew about. where would one start looking for something like older best paper awards? it seems like ICML only started giving out best paper awards since 2005

I guess it's the old truism of not being able to prove something does not exist

View on HN

you can find the previous icml best paper awards by looking at the previous conference websites. for example:

http://www-ai.ijs.si/SasoDzeroski/ICML99/award.html via http://www.machinelearning.org/icml.html

in machine learning, i think the significant conferences are NIPS (http://www.nips.cc/), ICML, UAI (e.g., http://event.cwi.nl/uai2010/), and AISTATS (http://www.aistats.org/).
