Submission Guidelines

We will accept papers in two formats:

  • Short papers - 4 pages (including references) .
  • Extended Abstracts / Demo Papers - 2 pages (including references).

Note: In extended abstracts / demo papers, the authors should emphasize on the problem statement, significance, preliminary results or demo description. The short papers will require more details but less emphasis on extensive literature review and more emphasis on the problem formulation, results, analysis and future work.

The short papers will be orally presented in the workshop. The Extended Abstract / Demo papers' authors need to prepare a poster that will be displayed during the workshop.

Submitted papers will be reviewed by at least two independent referees from the Program Committee. Submissions that do not follow the above guidelines will not be reviewed. The papers should be submitted using the IJCAI format.

Papers can be submitted using the EasyChair portal.

Accepted papers to ARIAL will be invited to submit an extended full length paper to the Journal of Healthcare Informatics Research (JHIR - Springer) and a fast track review will be conducted.

There will be opportunity for accepted authors to contribute book chapters in the CRC Book Series on Health Informatics

***At least one author of the accepted paper needs to attend ARIAL in order to be considered for possible publication opportunity in JHIR, contribute to book chapters and be included in workshop proceedings.
