%  HOW TO ADD A PAPER
%  ------------------
%  1. Grab the BibTeX from Google Scholar / ACM DL / IEEE Xplore / DBLP.
%  2. Paste it anywhere in this file (order does not matter — the site sorts
%     by year, newest first).
%  3. Optionally add the extra fields the site understands:
%
%       type      = {conference | journal | workshop}   (default: guessed)
%       venue     = {ICASSP}          short venue name shown as the badge
%       selected  = {true}            show on the home page "Selected" list
%       award     = {Honourable Mention}
%       pdf       = {https://...}
%       code      = {https://github.com/...}
%       project   = {https://...}
%       doi       = {10.1145/...}
%       arxiv     = {2401.01234}
%       note      = {one-line contribution statement}
%       figure    = {images/papers/name.png}   teaser image for the paper;
%                                              a venue plate is drawn if omitted
%
%  4. git commit && git push. Nothing else to do — no build step.
