We invite the submission of posters from a broad range of disciplines, including human-computer interaction, computer science, engineering, speech technology, linguistics, psychology, cognitive sciences, sociology, and other cognate disciplines.
Posters are short papers that present early-stage research and late-breaking work in the field of Conversational User Interfaces. This track is suitable for shorter, original contributions that do not meet the length requirements or depth required for the Papers track. Submissions can include preliminary results, short prequels to or follow-ups of larger studies, early student research, and other research that is better suited to an interactive discussion format. For the submission and review process, you should write an extended abstract that summarizes the content you wish to present in your poster. If accepted, we will invite you to present your work at CUI 2024, with your extended abstract published in the conference proceedings.
Examples of previously successful poster submissions at CUI can be found in the ACM Digital Library. Last year’s posters were published as “work in progress” in the posters and demos session.

The process
All submissions will proceed through the following process. Please contact the Posters & Demos chairs if you have any questions.
1. Prepare your extended abstract
Submissions of extended abstracts for posters must be in English, in PDF format, anonymised using the CHI anonymization policy, and approximately 3,000 words words (including figures, tables, proofs, appendixes, and any other content excluding references and acknowledgments).
You must use the ACM LaTeX or Word templates to prepare your submission. We encourage the use of LaTeX and the official ACM template on Overleaf. LaTeX users must employ the following document class for submission: \documentclass[manuscript,screen,review,anonymous]{acmart} for submission.
Word users must use the one-column submission template and should be prepared to submit to TAPS approximately one week earlier than the stated camera-ready deadline.
ACM’s CCS concepts and keywords are not required for submission and peer review but are required if your paper is accepted and published by the ACM.
2. Submit your extended abstract
You should submit your extended abstract to the conference submission system. You must include your title, abstract, author details, and extended abstract as a PDF. Your extended abstract must be anonymised, or it may be desk rejected. Please follow the SIGCHI Guide to an Accessible Submission to make your submission accessible for all users. Submitting your article to an ACM Publication acknowledges that you and your co-authors are subject to all ACM Publications Policies.
3. Await reviews
Each submission will be peer reviewed by three expert reviewers under a refereed process under a double-anonymous process (i.e., authors will not be revealed to reviewers, and all reviewers will be hidden from each other and authors). Extended abstracts for which there is a very high agreement among reviewers regarding recommendations for inclusion in the proceedings will receive early acceptance decisions and will be conditionally accepted, pending the integration of any changes requested through the review process.
4. Prepare your paper for publication
If your extended abstract is accepted, you should de-anonymise it. You must include CCS concepts and keywords for publication. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference. Otherwise, we cannot guarantee the publication of your paper. Accepted demo extended abstracts will be archived in the ACM Digital Library.
You will receive an email from ACM to assign the rights for your paper, following which you will receive an email from “The ACM Publishing System” (TAPS), which will handle the generation of the final version of your paper. Accepted papers will be produced from LaTeX or Word source files into a single column HTML document and a two-column PDF for publication. We recommend all authors read ACM’s guidance for TAPS Best Practice.
Please ensure that you and your co-authors obtain an ORCID ID to complete the publishing process for your accepted paper. Your paper will be published in the ACM CUI Proceedings in the ACM Digital Library. SIGCHI participates in the ACM Open Table of Contents (OpenTOC) service, which means papers will be freely available from this website for the first year after publication. Publications are Green Open Access by default but can be upgraded to Gold Open Access for a fee.
5. Present your work
Authors will be given the opportunity to present their posters at CUI 2024. The specific details of this presentation will be provided closer to the conference.
