Four conditional accepts to #CHI2024 from the XI team @csaudk. Three with 👁️ interaction in XR (gaze during walking, spatial reminders, sketching assistance) and one on mixed-reality remote collaboration. More info later on!
The #ieeevis overall papers chairs are going to be blogging about the creation of the VIS 2024 scientific program this year! The first two blog posts can be found on the website: ieeevis.org/year/2024/blog… Take a look to see some news about changes to the review process!
Here is a CHI response letter anti-pattern (at least for me): summarizing positive reviewer comments comes off as trying to use the reviewers' own words against them to bargain for an accept. Focus your limited character budget to explain how you've fixed the weaknesses instead.
