The 2027 8th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Computing (AIACT 2027) will be held in Nanjing, China, from February 26 to 28, 2027. AIACT 2027 will serve as a premier international forum for presenting and exchanging technological advances and research results in artificial intelligence and advanced computing. It aims to bring together leading researchers, engineers, and scientists from around the world to share the latest research findings and engineering practices, with a special focus on intelligent algorithms, machine learning, computer vision, and AI-driven autonomous systems.

The AIACT 2027 organizing committee invites proposals for special sessions. The special sessions will complement the regular program with new or emerging topics of particular interest at specific or cross-disciplinary levels, including state-of-the-art research in both academia and industry in special, novel, challenging, and emerging areas.

Special session proposals should be submitted by the prospective organizer(s) who will commit to promoting and handling the review process of the special session as Chair or Co-Chair of the event. One special session lasts 2 hours, which allows 6-10 oral presenters. If the number of presenters exceeds the capacity, some of them will be arranged to poster sessions. Presenters can submit abstracts for review.
