About the Applied Intelligence and Informatics (AII) Conference

Intelligence is defined as the ability to perceive or infer information, and to retain it as knowledge to be applied towards adaptive behaviours within an environment or context. It can be the capacity for logic, understanding, self-awareness, learning, emotional knowledge, reasoning, planning, creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving. Informatics is the study of the structure, behaviour, and interactions of natural and engineered computational systems. It studies the representation, processing, and communication of information in natural and engineered systems. Applying intelligence and informatics in solving most complex problems in science, engineering, real-life manufacturing, defence, management, government, and industrial domains.

The 6th International Conference on Applied Intelligence and Informatics (AII 2026) provides a premier international forum to bring together researchers and practitioners from diverse domains for the sharing of cutting-edge research results obtained through the application of intelligence and/or informatics to solve problems otherwise would not have been possible to solve. AII 2026 also fosters exchange and dissemination of innovative and practical development of methodologies and technologies with real-life applications.

AII 2026 aims to run in a competition format and asks all authors to make their dataset and methodology open access for the community usage. This is to: Foster the Reproducibility of Scientific Results, hence is the theme of the conference.

Paper Submission

  • Paper Submission:
    1. Full papers: submissions should be between 12 and 15 pages long including figures and references. Additional pages will be charged.
    2. Short papers: high quality papers between 6 and 11 pages are also welcome and will be accepted as short papers based on their originality, significance of contribution to the field, technical merit, and presentation quality.
    3. Note that the number of accepted short papers can only be at most 10% of the total accepted papers. Hence we encourage full paper submission.
  • Journal Opportunities: High quality AII conference papers may be nominated to submit an extended version for possible publication at a number of ISI and Scopus indexed journals.
  • Paper submission link will be made available soon.
  • Paper Format: All paper submissions MUST follow Springer LNCS Proceedings format.
