To be announced
We will solicit three categories of papers.
Full papers (up to 6 pages including references) should report a reasonably mature work with earables, and is expected to demonstrate concrete and reproducible results albeit scale may be limited.
Experience papers (up to 4 pages including references) that present extensive experiences with implementation, deployment, and operations of earable-based systems. Desirable papers are expected to contain real data as well as descriptions of the practical lessons learned.
Short papers (up to 2 pages including references) are encouraged to report novel, and creative ideas that are yet to produce concrete research results but are at a stage where community feedback would be useful.
Moreover, we will have a special submission category - "Dataset Paper" - soliciting a 1-2 page document describing a well curated and labelled dataset collected with earables (eventually accompanied by the dataset).
All papers will be in ACM sigconf template with 2 columns and all of the accepted papers (regardless of category) will be included in the ACM Digital Library. All papers will be digitally available through the workshop website, and the UbiComp/ISWC 2024 Adjunct Proceedings. For each category of papers, we will offer a "Best Paper" and "Best Dataset" awards sponsored by Nokia Bell Labs.
Topics of interest (NOT an exhaustive list):
Acoustic Sensing with Earables
Kinetic Sensing with Earables
Multi-Modal Learning with Earables
Multi-Task Learning with Earables
Active Learning with Earables
Low-Power Sensing Systems for Earables
Authentication & Trust mechanisms for Earables
Quality-Aware Data Collection with Earables
Experience Sampling with Earables
Crowd Sourcing with Earables
Novel UI and UX for Earables
Auditory Augmented Reality Application with Earables
Lightweight Deep Learning on Earables
Tiny Machine Learning on Earables
Health and Wellbeing Applications of Earables
Emerging applications of Earables
While the workshop will accept papers describing completed work as well as work-in-progress, the
emphasis is on early
discussion of novel and radical ideas (potentially of a controversial nature) rather than detailed
description and evaluation of incremental advances.
Submissions must be no longer than 6 pages (including references) for Full Papers, 4 pages (including references) for Experience Papers, and 2 pages
(including references) for Interactive Posters and Vision Papers and must be in PDF format.
Reviews will be double-blind: no names or affiliation should be included in the submission.
The submission template can be downloaded from
ACM site.
Alternatively, the Overleaf version can be found
here.
Latex documents should use the “sigconf” template style. Word users should use the interim
template downloadable from the
ACM site.
