Fusion 2002 is featuring a Student Paper Program to encourage the involvement of young engineers and scientists in the development of information fusion. A student paper is any paper for which a student is the principal author and primary contributor. Based upon the results of the regular review process, up to fifteen student papers will be accepted into the student paper program.

Features of the student program are as follows:

  • The principal author will present accepted papers in a special session devoted to student contributions.
  • Conference registration fees, which include one free banquet ticket and a CD-ROM of the conference proceedings, will be waived for the principal author of each student paper. In addition, travel expenses of the principal author up to $500.00 will be granted to the student by the conference.
  • The principal author of each student paper will receive free admission to his/her choice of one of the conference tutorials.
  • One of the student papers will be selected for the best student paper award. The principal author of the winning paper will present the paper orally at a conference luncheon and will be awarded a certificate and a $250 prize.

To be eligible, the principal author of a paper must be an active student at an accredited college, university, or technical institute. While the student should be the primary contributor to the paper, co-authors are permitted and need not be students. ISIF membership is not required.

Proposed paper summaries and papers must be submitted in accordance with the procedures in the conference Call for Papers (CFP). The CFP also provides additional details on areas of interest. Submissions should state clearly that the paper is submitted for consideration under the Student Paper Program along with a letter from principal author's department or degree program indicating that he/she is a student. The summaries and papers will be reviewed for acceptance, and the author notified of the outcome, according to the same procedures applied to regular submissions.
