AISSA 2026 CFP:

Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are computational frameworks designed to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and decision-making. These systems integrate algorithms, data, and computing power to enable machines to adapt and improve their performance over time. AI systems encompass a wide range of technologies, including machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, and autonomous robotics, and they are increasingly applied in domains such as healthcare, finance, cybersecurity, transportation, and smart cities. As they continue to evolve, AI systems are not only transforming industries and enhancing human capabilities but also raising important considerations around ethics, transparency, and trustworthiness. The International Conference on Artificial Intelligence Centric Systems, Services, and Applications (AISSA 2026) aims to bring together leading researchers, academics, and practitioners from around the world to share their latest findings, innovations, and applications in Artificial Intelligence and intelligent systems. AISSA 2026 provides a premier interdisciplinary platform for presenting advances and exchanging insights on the theoretical foundations, cutting-edge technologies, and real-world implementations of AI. AISSA 2026 will feature keynote talks, technical paper sessions, workshops, and tutorials covering a wide range of AI topics. We invite submissions of high-quality research papers describing original and unpublished results in all areas of Artificial Intelligence Systems. addresses the use of advanced intelligent systems in providing cybersecurity solutions in many fields, and the challenges, approaches, and future directions. We invite the submission of original papers on all topics related to Intelligent Systems with special interest in but not limited to:  

·       Machine Learning and Data-Driven Systems
