| Talk Type | Duration | Slides | Content Depth |
|---|---|---|---|
| poster-talk | 3–5 min | 5–8 | Problem + key result only |
| spotlight | 5–8 min | 8–12 | Problem + approach + key results |
| oral | 15–20 min | 15–22 | Full story with evaluation highlights |
| invited | 30–45 min | 25–40 | Deep dive with context and demos |
Rule of thumb: ~1 slide per minute for oral, ~1.5 slides per minute for spotlight.
