The ICAI 2026 Program Committee is inviting proposals for special sessions to be held during the conference (http://www.icai.org.cn/2026/Special%20Session.php), taking place on November 12-15, 2026, in Ningbo, Zhejiang, China.
Each special session proposal should be well motivated and should consist of 8 to 12 papers. Each paper must have the title, authors with e-mails/web sites, and as detailed an abstract as possible. The special session organizer(s) contact information should also be included. All special session organizers must obtain firm commitments from their special session presenters and authors to submit papers in a timely fashion (if the special session is accepted) and, particularly, present them at the ICIC 2026. Each special session organizer will be session chair for their own special sessions at ICIC 2026 accordingly. All planned papers for special sessions will undergo the same review process as the ones in regular sessions. All accepted papers for special sessions will also be published by Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Sciences (LNCS)/ Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI)/ Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics (LNBI).
All the authors for each special session must follow the guidelines in CALL FOR PAPERS to prepare your submitted papers.
