Submission Procedure

Authors may submit an up to 2-page abstract for demo presentations via email to slt2021specialsession@gmail.com. Abstracts should briefly outline the demonstration, including application and system design. Demo applications may optionally include a single video file that exemplifies the results of the work or a link to some video hosting sites. The submitted abstracts will be reviewed by Demo chairs.

As the conference will go purely virtual, all the demos will have to be presented online, via a video conference tool in the allocated time slots during the demo session. In addition, we strongly recommend all demos are provided via one of the following formats: (1) A live demo website; or (2) A website with a downloadable installation package of the demo; unless this is impossible because some special hardware is required or access is otherwise limited. The exact details of the demo session are still to be worked out and will be announced later.

Please don't hesitate to contact Demo chairs for any additional questions.

Demo chairs: Yang Liu (Amazon, Alexa AI, USA) and Thomas Zheng (Tsinghua University, China)
