Paper submission

As the main HAI 2017 conference, we will accept only online submission of PDF files in the ACM SIGCHI format. Initial submissions can be a 1 page abstract or a 4-6 pages long paper (references do not count toward the page limits). They could be anonymized.

All submissions will be reviewed by the program committee members. Papers will be evaluated on the basis of research originality, novelty, quality and relevance to the workshop. A special issue in the Multimodal Technologies and Interaction Journal is envisioned with extended version of selected papers.

Online submission

Your article must be submitted as a PDF file using the BER2017 submission webpage. You may need to create an EasyChair account if you do not have already one.
