Each accepted paper represents a formal commitment by the authors and the conference to include the work in the technical program and the official proceedings.\n  <\/p>\n\n  <p style=\"margin-bottom: 25px;\">\n    <strong style=\"color: #1565c0;\">Once a paper has been formally accepted, it must remain in the program<\/strong>, except in cases involving ethical concerns, major technical issues, or other exceptional circumstances that require review and approval by the Organizing Committee. Unjustified removal of an accepted paper disrupts the conference schedule, affects session planning, and undermines the integrity of the review process. Authors are expected to uphold their commitment to present and publish accepted work.\n  <\/p>\n\n  <h3 style=\"color: #EF6C00; margin-top: 25px; margin-bottom: 10px;\">Preprint Policy<\/h3>\n  <p style=\"margin-bottom: 14px;\">\n    Authors who have submitted or plan to submit their articles to IEEE may post their preprints in the following approved locations:\n  <\/p>\n  <ul style=\"padding-left: 20px; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 14px; line-height: 1.9;\">\n    <li>arXiv.org, TechRxiv.org, or any not-for-profit preprint server approved by the IEEE Publication Services and Products Board (PSPB)<\/li>\n    <li>The author&#8217;s employer website or institutional repository<\/li>\n    <li>The author&#8217;s personal website<\/li>\n  <\/ul>\n  <p style=\"margin-bottom: 14px;\">\n    IEEE does not consider posting a preprint in these locations to be a form of prior publication.
