Call for Papers

Scope of the Conference

Autonomous Machine Intelligence focuses on systems that can learn, predict, reason, and act autonomously in complex and dynamic environments. Recent advances in self-supervised learning, world models, predictive learning, and energy-based architectures have accelerated progress toward this vision.

AMI 2026 provides a focused international forum for presenting novel theories, algorithms, system architectures, and real-world applications that advance autonomous machine intelligence.

Topics of Interest

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Autonomous Machine Intelligence
• Self-supervised and predictive learning
• World models and representation learning
• Energy-based models and joint embedding predictive architectures (JEPA)
• Multimodal and embodied intelligence
• Perception–prediction–action loops
• Autonomous decision-making systems
• Autonomous robotics and intelligent agents
• Real-world deployment and evaluation of autonomous systems

Important Dates

• Paper submission deadline: June 1, 2026
• Acceptance notification: August 15, 2026
• Camera-ready papers due: October 15, 2026
• Conference dates: October 29–31, 2026

All deadlines are firm and follow the Anywhere on Earth (AoE) convention.

Submission and Review

AMI 2026 invites original research and application papers. Submissions must be written in English and prepared using the Springer LNCS/CCIS one-column conference proceedings format.

All submissions must be original and not under review or published elsewhere.

Each submission will undergo a rigorous double-blind peer-review process. Every paper will be reviewed by at least three qualified reviewers and evaluated based on originality, technical quality, relevance, significance, and clarity.

Publication

Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings by Springer in the Communications in Computer and Information Science (CCIS) series, subject to satisfactory peer review and compliance with Springer’s publication policies.

Presentation Requirement

At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference and present the paper in person at AMI 2026.
