Virtual requirements

N/A

Speakers used SlidesLive to present live. Accepted authors submitted a poster and a pre-recorded video of their talk. They may also have submitted a short introductory video previewing their work.

EAAI, a co-located conference, was held in a live Zoom session.

Proceedings used VirtualChair to organize events into “rooms” where speakers presented. Each poster presentation included a three-minute prerecorded video summarizing the work.

Authors were required to upload a recording of their presentation and a copy of their slide deck. They were allowed to present either in-person or remotely. Recordings submitted by no-show participants would be shown. All recordings were available to view after the conference.

Authors were required to submit a poster to accompany their submissions. Only in-person attendees would present their poster for commentary.

At least some workshops only required attendees to submit their slide decks.

Remote participants could ask questions through the Underline.io platform.
