Conference Rules and Guidelines

1. Paper Submission Guidelines

Guidelines regarding Use of AI and Research Tools:

We invite authors to utilize any suitable tools for preparing high-quality papers and research. However, we ask authors to keep two important criteria in mind.

  1. First, papers must thoroughly describe their methodology, including any tools that are significant to that methodology. This includes the use of large language models (LLMs). Authors should specify any tools (including LLMs) employed for data processing or filtering, visualization, conducting experiments, or proving theorems. It may also be beneficial to discuss the role of LLMs in implementing the method, especially if it represents an important, original, or non-standard component of the approach.
  2. Second, authors are responsible for the entire content of their papers, including all text, numbers, and figures. They must ensure that all the paper content is accurate and original. Please note that all submissions will be checked for plagiarism.
  • Original Work: Authors must submit original, unpublished research papers that are not under consideration elsewhere (Full or Partial).
  • Submission Portal: All papers should be submitted through the official conference submission portal (Microsoft CMT).
  • Page Limit: The manuscript must be 10 to 12 pages formatted strictly using the Springer conference template.
  • File Format: Submissions must be made in MS Word/PDF format, and all figures/tables must be embedded within the document, discussed in text and having proper citation.
  • Authorship: Change in authorship after acceptance not allowed.
  • Author Affiliation: Affiliation should contain only the name of the department, name of College/University, City, and Country (Do not include post/position).
  • Similarity Index: Authors must ensure the similarity index is below 20% (checked via Turnitin/iThenticate). Copying a significant portion/paraphrasing, using tortured phrases, and AI-generated content may result in the removal of the paper without notice, and no refund will be applicable.
  • Figures & Tables:
  • Reference Style (https://share.google/WA5Z5VHyUfxom1N8t):
    • Please note that Springer follows the Reference Style [Basic], Citation Style [Numbered] and Numbering Style [3].
    • Use Springer - MathPhys (numeric, brackets) format with numbered citations in the text (https://citationsy.com/styles/springer-mathphys-brackets).
    • Ensure all references are cited in the text and vice versa.
    • References should be diverse, not copied from a single source.
    • Format: Author(s), Title, Journal/Book, Publisher, Volume, Issue, Pages, Year. (For conferences, include conference name and location).
  • Process to cite references in text (Refer example given here):
    • For one author: Use the author's last name, Ex. Maharudrappa [1] presented a detailed study of ...
    • For two authors: Use the last name of both authors separated by and, Ex. Polireddi and Sekhar [2] developed a variant of ...
    • For three or more authors: Use the first author's last name followed by et al., Ex. Nguyen et al. [3] proposed ...
