The 18^th JSAI International Symposia on AI (JSAI-isAI 2026) will take place at GUNMA Convention Center, Gunma, Japan, on June 7 through 9, 2026.  JSAI-isAI is an event that hosts multiple international workshops at the same location, providing a unique and intimate forum for colleagues in a focused discipline. JSAI-isAI also provides an opportunity for AI researchers to get together and share their knowledge. JSAI-isAI 2026 will be held in conjunction with JSAI annual conference (JSAI2026). We hope the participants of the symposium also enjoy events in JSAI2026, such as invited talks and international sessions.

Updates

• • (September 1, 2025): Site is open
  • (September 18, 2025): Corrected an error in the submission deadline for camera-ready papers listed in the “Important Dates” section, which previously conflicted with other parts of the website. The updated deadline is now accurate.

Proceedings

NOTE: Until 2023, we used Springer LNAI as post proceedings. In 2024,  we chaned it to proceedings. Therefore selected papers should be properly submitted 10 weeks before the symposium – which is March 29, 2026.
