Call for Special Sessions
Introduction
IPIN has an excellent track record over the years for organizing Special Sessions in new or emerging areas. This year as well we are seeking innovative, high-quality and potentially interdisciplinary proposals for Special Sessions that complement the regular program of the conference.
Special Sessions should be focused and provide both, an overview of the state-of-the-art, as well as highlight the most promising research directions, trends and challenges in the scope of the conference.
Chairs of the special session should be aware they are responsible to promote and finding potential contributors for reaching a sufficient numbers of submissions.
Accepted Special Sessions NEW!
So far, the following proposals for special sessions have been accepted:- Integrated Sensing, Communication, and Positioning for Internet of Things in Future 6G Networks
- Neural Positioning with Radio and Inertial Sensors under Real-World Impairments
- Physics-Aware SLAM: Advancing Indoor Autonomous Localization through Multi-Physical-Field Perception and Modeling
- AI-Driven Indoor Positioning: From Foundational Models to Real-World Robustness
- 3D SLAM and Fusion Techniques
Preparation of proposals
Submitted proposals should include the following information:
- Special Session title
- Short description of the proposed topic (one paragraph)
- Novelty and motivation (one to two paragraphs), including why this topic is of interest to the IPIN community and why it is different from a regular session on the same topic
