Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished papers are solicited in all areas described above. The template for the conference is available at:

* Review Papers are not accepted.

The maximum page limit is six pages, including references. Do not include an author biography at the end. If additional pages are necessary, up to 8 pages are permitted subject to an extra payment of Rs. 500 ($25) per additional page.

Authors are invited to submit papers through Microsoft’s Conference Management Toolkit (CMT). All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed based on their quality and relevance.

• Step 1: Final Camera-ready paper preparation

Please follow the IEEE two-column A4 size standard conference format for preparing your final manuscript. For more details, please visit the IEEE Templates page: IEEE Templates .

Revised Version: Revise your paper based on reviewers’ comments/suggestions. The reviewer’s comments are available on the same Microsoft paper management site: Reviewer Comments

The maximum page limit is six pages, including references. Do not include an author biography at the end. If additional pages are necessary, up to eight pages are permitted subject to an extra payment of Rs. 500 ($25) per additional page.

Similarity with other papers should be low (a similarity index below 25% is acceptable for publication). The maximum file size allowed is 3 MB, and the file format should be PDF (.pdf) without encryption or passwords.

Authors are responsible for ensuring that the reviewers’ and meta-reviewers’ comments have been addressed in the final manuscript.

• Step 2: IEEE Copyright Notice

An appropriate copyright notice is to appear at the bottom of the first page of each paper. Replace the copyright notice in the camera-ready paper template with the correct copyright notice as follows:

For papers in which all authors are employed by the US government, the copyright notice is: “U.S. Government work not protected by U.S. copyright.”

For papers in which all authors are employed by a Crown government (UK, Canada, and Australia), the copyright notice is: “979-8-3503-8168-9/24/$31.00 ©2024 Crown.”

For papers in which all authors are employed by the European Union, the copyright notice is: “979-8-3503-8168-9/24/$31.00©2024 European Union.”

For all other papers, the copyright notice is: “979-8-3503-8168-9/24/$31.00 ©2024 IEEE.”

• Step 3: PDF eXpress check

After revising your paper, pass it through PDF eXpress using conference ID (63907X) at the following URL: PDF eXpress. If you do not have an account, click on the link “New Users – Click here” and provide your information (email address and password).

• Step 4: Camera-ready Paper Submission

Submit the final version of the paper (after passing it through PDF eXpress check) through the author console in CMT. Please note that you are expected to retain the original paper’s title in the final version, and the author list cannot be changed in the final manuscript. You should rename this exact file to confirm to the following naming convention:iCon-BCIHT_paperID.pdf, where paper ID is the Microsoft CMT paper id.

• Step 5: Submission of the copyright form

IMPORTANT : Ensure that all authors have registered in CMT with their correct names and contact emails. IEEE e-copyright takes information from CMT, and any discrepancies with the names mentioned in the paper may result in the submission being removed from the conference publication and not uploaded to IEEE Xplore. Submitting e-copyright is a one-time process and cannot be corrected. For corrections, authors must contact IEEE directly; the conference cannot assist in this regard. After uploading the final camera-ready paper (which must have passed PDF Check in IEEE PDF eXpress), click on the ‘Submit IEEE Copyright Form’ link to access the IEEE Copyright Form Submission CMT page. Click on the IEEE copyright website link. You will be redirected to the IEEE eCF site to submit the copyright form. After completing the IEEE copyright form and copyright agreements, you will have the option to download the completed IEEE Copyright Form (the corresponding author will also receive the copyright form via email). Please upload it to the same page in CMT or use the ‘drop files here’ menu. The corresponding author may submit the copyright form for all the authors of the paper.
