Since 2015, the Artificial Intelligence Symposium - AIS brings academics, researchers and industrial researchers together in a unique multidisciplinary community to discuss state of the art and latest advances in Artificial Intelligence. Since 2017, the conference adopted the Asilomar AI Principles.
The 12th Artificial Intelligence Symposium (AIS) has established itself as a premier multidisciplinary conference in artificial intelligence, deep/machine learning, generative AI, foundation models, knowledge discovery and data science. It provides an international forum for the presentation of original multidisciplinary research results, and the exchange and dissemination of innovative and practical development experiences.
AIS 2026 will be held in Riva del Sole Resort & SPA - Tuscany on September 21 – 24, 2026. The conference will consist of four days of conference sessions. We invite submissions of papers on all topics related to Artificial Intelligence, including real-world applications for the Conference Post-Proceedingsby Springer Nature – Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).
Submission Guidelines
Please prepare your paper in English using the Springer Nature – Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) template, which is available here. Papers must be submitted in PDF.
Types of Submissions
When submitting a paper to AIS 2026, authors are required to select one of the following four types of papers:
- Long Paper / Late Breaking Paper: original novel and unpublished work (min. 12 pages, max. 15 pages, including References, in Springer LNCS format), the long papers and the late breaking papers, if accepted, will be published in the Springer-Nature LNCS conference proceedings; all articles (full papers) submitted and accepted in the Tracks will be published in the Conference Proceedings by the Nature-Springer LNCS.
- Short Paper: an extended abstract of novel work (min. 6 pages, max. 11 pages, including References, in Springer LNCS format), the short papers, if accepted, will be published in the Springer-Nature LNCS conference proceedings; all articles (short papers) submitted and accepted in the Tracks will be published in the Conference Proceedings by the Nature-Springer LNCS.
- Work for Oral Presentation only (no page restriction; any format). For example, work already published elsewhere, which is relevant and which may solicit fruitful discussion at the conference. Articles/Abstracts accepted in this special session will not be published in the Conference Proceedings by Nature-Springer LNCS.
- Work for Poster Presentation only (no page restriction; any format). For example, work already published elsewhere, which is relevant and which may solicit fruitful discussion at the conference. Articles/Abstracts accepted in this special session will not be published in the Conference Proceedings by Nature-Springer LNCS.
Springer’s proceedings LaTeX templates are available in Overleaf.
Submitted papers must adopt the following to two rules:
- author names and institutions must be omitted, and
- references to authors’ own related research work must be in the third person.
Each paper submitted will be rigorously evaluated. The evaluation will ensure the high interest and expertise of reviewers. Following the tradition of AIS, we expect high-quality papers in terms of their scientific contribution, rigor, correctness, novelty, clarity, quality of presentation and reproducibility of experiments.Accepted papers must contain significant novel results. Results can be either theoretical or empirical. Results will be judged on the degree to which they have been objectively established and/or their potential for scientific and technological impact.
Authors should consult Springer’s Instructions for Authors of Proceedings and use either the LaTeX or the Word templates provided on the authors’ page for the preparation of their papers. Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. In addition, the corresponding author of each paper, acting on behalf of all of the authors of that paper, must complete and sign a License-to-Publish form. The corresponding author signing the copyright form should match the corresponding author marked on the paper. Once the files have been sent to Springer, changes relating to the authorship of the papers cannot be made.
If any of the authors contributing to AIS are interested in Open Access or Open Choice, please refer to our webpage for prices and additional information. Springer teams would need the invoicing address and the CC-BY licence-to-publish agreement at the same time as the files for the publication
