February 4-7, 2021
The AAAI-21 Student Abstract program provides a forum in which students can present and discuss their work during its early stages, meet some of their peers who have related interests, and introduce themselves to more senior members of the field. The program is open to all students at the Undergraduate, Masters, and Doctoral levels.
In addition to poster presentations, the authors of (20) accepted abstracts have been asked to submit 3-minute prerecorded videos for the Three-Minute Presentation Contest. A special prize committee will select the best presentation. The (20) finalists have been designated with an (*) in the schedule below.
Each poster will be available during all three time segments on the day it is scheduled. Authors may select the most convenient timezone to present their work, but are encouraged to be present in at least two of the three presentation windows.
Each main conference day (February 4-7) will have three (3) segments, consisting of a 75-minute plenary session and a 1.75-hour poster session:
7:30 – 10:30 AM PST
3:30 – 6:30 PM PST
11:30 PM – 2:30 AM PST
Poster presentations will fall in the following time slots:
8:45 – 10:30 AM PST
4:45 – 6:30 PM PST
12:45 – 2:30 AM PST
The full schedule of student abstract poster presentations is included below.
