About AICS 2024


The 32nd Irish Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science (AICS 2024) will be hosted by University College Dublin (UCD) in collaboration with Dublin City University (DCU). The conference will be held in-person at the UCD Belfield campus.

With regular conferences dating back to 1988, the AICS Conference is Ireland’s primary forum bringing together researchers in the fields of Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science. The fields of Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science, encompassing areas such as; Data Analytics, Natural Language Processing, Information Retrieval, and Machine Learning, are now at the forefront of Irish computing research and industry. The AICS 2024 program will include presentations of high-quality theoretical and applied scientific papers and tutorials. Invited talks will describe important topics relevant to the field.

Submission Types

We invite three types of submissions:

  • Full Paper Track: Full paper submissions should consist of original contributions (describing either fundamental basic research, interesting applications, in-use experiences, or reviews of the field) not published in other forums. Papers should be of 6 to 12 pages in length in the Springer LNCS style. Accepted submissions will appear in online proceedings and authors will be invited for oral or poster presentation.
  • Student Track: This track is designed to facilitate students who have recently completed a Bachelor’s or Master’s programme with a dissertation component. Student track submissions should consist of original contributions (describing either basic research or interesting applications) and the first author must be the student upon whose dissertation the paper is based. Papers should be of 6 to 12 pages in length in the Springer LNCS style. Accepted submissions will appear in the online proceedings and authors will be invited for a poster presentation.
  • NECTAR Track: NECTAR track submissions should describe significant results previously published or disseminated no earlier than 2019 at a prestigious international conference or journal. Authors will be invited to present their work orally at AICS.
Important All Full Paper Track and Student Paper Track submissions should be prepared for double-blind review and therefore appropriately anonymised. All accepted submissions in Full Paper Track and Student Paper Track will appear in online proceedings online proceedings at www.ceur-ws.org .

Keynote Speakers (TBC)
