2026 BCS SGAI International Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AI)*

“Peace does not mean an absence of conflicts; differences will always be there. Peace means solving these differences through peaceful means; through dialogue, education, knowledge; and through humane ways.” – Dalai Lama XIV

The BCS SGAI International Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AI), formerly the BCS SGAI International Conference on Innovative Techniques and Applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI), the BCS SGES International Conference on Knowledge Based Systems and Applied Artificial Intelligence (ES) and the BCS SGES Expert Systems Conference (ES), is the annual conference of the Britih Computer Society’s SGAI, the Specialist Group on Artificial Intelligence (formerly SGES, the Specialist Group on Artificial Intelligence Expert Systems). AI aims to be a meeting place for the international artificial intelligence community. The two-track conference with parallel technical and application streams, workshops and tutorials is designed to provide a wide range of options for delegates, whether they are newcomers to the technology or seasoned practitioners. The scope of the conference includes the whole range of artificial intelligence technologies and application areas. Its principal aims are to review recent technical advances in artificial intelligence technologies and to show how this leading edge technology has been applied to solve business problems.

Areas of interest include (but are not restricted to): knowledge based systems; knowledge engineering; constraint satisfaction; intelligent agents; machine learning; model based reasoning; verification and validation of AI systems; natural language understanding; case based reasoning; neural networks; genetic algorithms; data mining and knowledge discovery in databases.

In general AI consists of a technical and an applications stream (papers, posters sessions, and pre-conference workshops and tutorials).
