Submission Tracks

URAI 2026 offers two submission tracks under the same thematic scope. The primary scientific focus of the symposium lies on original research contributions.

Track 1: Original Research Contributions

This track welcomes original, unpublished research advancing applied AI and its responsible integration into practice.

Submission Process

• Authors submit an extended abstract of 1-2 pages describing their research contribution.
• Based on the evaluation of the extended abstracts, submissions will be accepted or rejected and assigned to either oral presentation or poster presentation.
• Authors of accepted contributions are invited to submit a full paper (maximum 8 pages) for inclusion in the symposium proceedings.
• Full papers undergo a formal and editorial review prior to publication in the symposium proceedings.

Track 2: Journal/Conference-First-Contributions

This track invites contributions that have been published within the last 18 months in peer-reviewed journals or international conferences across relevant disciplines. The aim is to increase visibility of high-quality research within the Upper-Rhine AI community and foster cross-border exchange.

Submission Process

• Authors submit an extended abstract of 1-2 pages together with reference to the original publication.
• All extended abstracts undergo a review to ensure relevance and alignment with the symposium theme.
• Based on the evaluation of the extended abstracts, submissions will be accepted or rejected and assigned to either oral presentation or poster presentation.
• No additional full paper is required. Accepted extended abstracts may be included in the symposium proceedings.
• Authors submit an extended abstract together with a reference to the original publication.
