Your journey is divided into key milestones, each designed to guide you from an initial concept to a fully developed 6-page research paper ready for IECON 2025.
Milestone 1 (Due: March 5, 2025)
- Abstract (200 words)
Provide a succinct summary of your project’s objectives and significance. - Literature Review
Briefly survey relevant academic papers and prior implementations that relate to your idea. - Methodology Diagram
Show a clear flow or architecture diagram illustrating how your system or approach works. - Dataset/Experiment Plan
Identify the dataset(s) you will use or describe how you plan to collect/generate them.- We encourage using IEEE Dataport or other reputable repositories.
Milestone 2 (Due: March 26, 2025)
- Initial Paper Draft (3–5 pages) including:
- Introduction (explain significance and novelty)
- Methods (key functionalities, technical details)
- Preliminary Results or Observations
- References (cite all used data, papers, libraries)
Milestone 3 (Due: April 8, 2025)
- Final Revision
- Incorporate mentor and reviewer feedback.
- Aim for a 6-page final manuscript, ready for conference submission.
- If you have any demonstration materials (like videos or simulations), include a link or supporting data.
Final Paper Format
- Must adhere to the standard IEEE conference template (two-column format, up to 6 pages) on an overleaf project.
- All text, figures, and references should follow IEEE guidelines.
Video Demonstration
- Create a short video (max 10 minutes) to showcase your project’s operation or prototype.
- Upload to a publicly accessible platform (YouTube, Vimeo, Google Drive) and provide the link in your final submission.
Note: Failure to meet these milestones may result in disqualification or reduced consideration by the judging panel.
Submission to IECON 2025
Finalist teams will be asked to submit their papers to IECON 2025.
Manuscript Submission
All submissions must be uploaded through IEEE IES Conferences Community System’s Paper Submission Website following the schedule given in important dates. Each submission will be reviewed by three independent reviewers using a single blind peer review process, and will be screened for plagiarism and duplicate publication. The accepted papers are to be presented in the conference, and will be hosted on IEEE Xplore, subject to formatting and copyright requirements.
