Special Sessions
APSIPA ASC 2019 features a special sessions track for emerging research topics that will run throughout the conference in parallel to other tracks. Special sessions provide the opportunity for a more in-depth look at the subject matter presented. APSIPA ASC 2019 strongly encourages organization of Special Sessions to complement regular programs and to help bring together leading researchers and engineers from around the world to present the state-of-the-art research works. Special Session proposals may cover topics that relate to regular technical program tracks of APSIPA ASC 2019, but are not limited to those. Proposals will be reviewed by the special session committee based on the relevance, innovation, content and quality. All papers submitted to the special sessions will go through the same review process as regular papers. The special session organizers and all invited speakers will be required to register for the conference.
