Affiliated Events

​AAAI will be co-located with two other exciting sister conferences. Authors may want to consider whether their potential AAAI submission is more appropriate for one of these other venues.

1. IAAI solicits papers on applications that showcase novel uses of AI technology, with a particular focus on successful deployments, challenge problems, and methodologies related to deploying applications at scale.
2. EAAI solicits papers that discuss contributions related to AI education and use of AI in education.

While each sister event has a distinct focus, each has some degree of overlap with AAAI-26. Thus, while most papers published at either AAAI-26 or each of the sister conferences would be inappropriate for publication at the others, in some cases work may be appropriate for more than one venue. Authors are advised to consult each event’s CFP carefully and to use their best judgment in determining where to submit their work. We note that these sister events have independent program committees and review processes, so we are unable to move papers after submission from AAAI-26 to a sister conference or vice versa.
