Policies worth checking twice
- Submissions are single-blind; anonymization is not required.
- Papers already posted as preprints (e.g., on arXiv) are acceptable for submission.
- Authors are encouraged to incorporate feedback received during the workshop into final camera-ready versions.
- Final submissions will close at a TBA deadline; rolling submissions are offered with priority notification windows.
- Double-blind conference policies (e.g., HRI) may consider preprints as violating anonymity — authors should verify target venue policies.
