Submission Guidelines
Submissions will be accepted through Precision Conference Solutions this
year.
More details will be available in the coming months.
*IMPORTANT:* IEEE VR 2024 uses a DOUBLE-BLIND review process. Failure to
anonymize submissions will result in desk rejection.
Each research paper should provide a contribution covering one or more of
the following categories: methodological, technical, applications, and
systems.
- *Methodological papers* should describe advances in theories and
methods of AR/VR/MR and 3DUI, such as ethical issues, theories on presence,
or human factors.
- *Technical papers* should describe advancements in algorithms or
devices critical to AR/VR/MR and 3DUI development such as input, display,
user interaction, or tracking.
- *Application papers* provide an important insight to the community by
explaining how the authors built upon existing ideas and applied them to
solve an interesting problem in a novel way. Each paper should include an
evaluation of the success of the use of AR/VR/MR and/or 3DUI in the given
application domain.
- *System papers* should indicate how the developers integrated
techniques and technologies to produce an effective system, and convey any
lessons learned in the process.
Each paper should include an evaluation of its contributions, such as user
studies, benchmarking and/or comparison with existing
systems/techniques/methods.
We welcome paper submissions between 4 and 9 pages, not including
references. Authors are encouraged to submit videos to aid the program
committee in reviewing their submissions.
All paper submissions must be formatted using the IEEE Computer Society
TVCG conference format (

Review process
The review process will have two cycles.
*Review Cycle I (Submission to Initial notification)*
Submissions will be assigned to two members of the VR 2024 International
Program Committee (IPC): a coordinator (primary) and a secondary reviewer.
Submissions that violate the submission guidelines or that receive low
review scores from the coordinator and the secondary reviewer will be
rejected. The other submissions will receive a total of at least three
reviews. Based on the reviews and in consultation with a subset of the IPC,
the Program Chairs will make one of the following initial recommendations
for each submission:
- *Conditionally accept as IEEE TVCG paper.* Continuing our cooperation
with the IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics (TVCG),
these submissions with substantial contribution will be considered for
publication in a special issue of IEEE TVCG.
- *Conditionally accept as conference paper.* These submissions will be
considered for inclusion in the Proceedings of IEEE VR, archived in the
IEEE Xplore Digital Library.
- *Recommend for major revision to IEEE TVCG.* This recommendation is
reserved for submissions that make a substantial contribution but that
require revisions beyond what can be achieved within the conference
reviewing process. These submissions will be given the option of major
revision to IEEE TVCG. Reviewer continuity will be attempted but not
guaranteed. Note that as per IEEE TVCG rules a single major revision is
possible.
- *Recommend as a two-page poster.* Authors of a submission receiving
this recommendation have the option of condensing their submission into a
two-page poster, including references. Subject to a final approval by the
Posters chairs, accepted posters will be included in the IEEE VR Abstracts
and Workshops proceedings and will be archived in the IEEE Digital Library.
Note that IEEE VR does not consider posters as a final disclosure of
research results. Thus, work accepted as an IEEE VR poster might be
eligible for inclusion in future publications.
- *Reject.*
*Review Cycle II (Initial notification to Final decision)*
Each conditionally accepted paper will be reviewed by its coordinator, who
will make a final recommendation regarding acceptance. Should the
conditions for acceptance not be met, the paper will be rejected.
Additional Guidelines
*Abstract Submission.*
Note that a paper abstract must be uploaded seven days prior to the actual
paper submission deadline. This facilitates the process of assigning
reviewers, as the review process operates on a very tight schedule.
*Ethics and Responsibility.*
All submissions describing research experiments with human participants
must follow the appropriate ethical guidelines required by the authors’
institution, and authors are required to secure and report their approval
by the relevant ethics committee. An approval by any ethical review board,
if required by your institution, needs to be indicated via the submission
system.
*Review Duties for Authors.*
The increasing number of submissions for IEEE VR makes us all dependent on
a large number of good reviewers who are willing to provide constructive
feedback and engage with authors on their work. To expand the reviewing
pool and to promote quality reviews, one author will be required to
register to review up to three papers through PCS at the time of
submission. Additionally, senior authors are encouraged to ask experienced
junior authors to register in PCS to review papers, and then to mentor the
junior authors during the review process.
*Presentation at the Conference.*
All accepted submissions must be presented orally at the conference. An
in-person presentation is expected, and online presentations will be
accommodated only in exceptional cases.
*Submission Language.*
All paper submissions must be in English.
*Previous Publication and Plagiarism.*
Submitted manuscripts must not have been previously published. A manuscript
is considered to have been previously published if it has appeared in a
peer-reviewed journal, magazine, book, or meeting proceedings that is
reliably and permanently available afterward in print or electronic form to
non-attendees, regardless of the language of that publication. A manuscript
identical or substantially similar in content (in its entirety or in part)
to one submitted to VR should not be simultaneously under consideration for
another conference or journal during any part of the VR review process,
from the submission deadline until notifications of decisions are emailed
to authors.
In some situations, a submission may build upon prior work. In order to
fully explain the relationship between the submitted paper and prior work,
authors may upload additional papers as well as a non-anonymous letter of
explanation that highlights the significant changes or advances; these
materials will only be seen by the primary reviewer. Specifically, this
treatment is applied to the following cases:
- non peer-reviewed works that are publicly available (on arXiv, as a
technical report, etc.)
- non-archival publications presented in past IEEE VR conferences
(posters, demos, etc.)
Submissions will be checked for plagiarism using IEEE Crosscheck. Detection
of significant plagiarism will lead to rejection. For more information
about definitions of plagiarism and IEEE policies in this area, please see
the Introduction to the Guidelines for Handling Plagiarism Complaints

*AI-generated Text.*
Large-scale language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT can only be used by the
authors to edit grammar of their own text.
*Submission Anonymity.*
* IEEE VR uses a DOUBLE-BLIND review process *
This means that both the authors and the reviewers must remain anonymous to
each other. Submissions (including citations and optional videos) must not
contain information that identifies the authors, their institutions,
funding sources, or their places of work. Relevant previous work by the
authors must be cited in the third person to preserve anonymity (exceptions
were described above). Authors should work diligently to ensure that their
submissions do not expose their identities either intentionally or through
carelessness. Authors that have questions/issues around the double-blind
submission policy should contact the program chairs.
* Failure to make reasonable attempts to adhere to the double-blind policy
will result in desk rejection. *
*Pre-dissemination through public online repositories.*
Uploading the submitted manuscript to an online repository (e.g., arXiv)
before the end of the review process does not constitute a reason for
rejecting the manuscript. However, the authors should be advised that doing
so can compromise the anonymity of their manuscript and therefore bias its
double-blind review.
*Videos.*
Videos must be submitted according to the instructions on the submission
website. Videos submitted with papers will automatically be considered for
possible inclusion in the video proceedings (video submissions may also be
made independently, as described in the separate Call for Videos). When
submitted as supporting material, videos must be free of any identifying
information prior to reviewing as per the double-blind submission policy.
If accepted for the video proceedings, a revised version of the materials
will be requested.
