Early Career Symposium
At ICCC’24 we offer junior researchers (typically master’s and Ph.D. students) a chance to present their projects at the conference with or without an accepted paper in one of the main tracks. The Early Career Symposium (ECS) welcomes junior researchers at any stage to submit a summary of their research topic for inclusion in the conference.
The ECS is an interactive workshop intended for junior researchers working on projects in computational creativity. Intended as a platform for growth, it offers junior researchers a venue to present ideas, get feedback on their work and connect to senior researchers in through the workshops mentors program.
The event will take place right before the main conference, as part of ICCC’s workshop program. Accepted participants are asked to hold short presentations together with a poster (ideally in A1), of their submitted proposals and will be assigned a mentor group based on the main topic of the proposal.
