We invite submissions to NL4AI 2026, the Ninth Workshop on Natural Language
for Artificial Intelligence, to be held in Perugia from the 6th to the 9th
of October 2026, within the 24th International Conference of the Italian
Association for Artificial Intelligence (AIxIA 2026), and supported by AILC
(http://www.ai-lc.it/).

The goal of NL4AI is to explore the role of Computational Linguistics and
Natural Language Processing in Artificial Intelligence applications. We
believe that new technological challenges and opportunities arise at the
boundary between NLP and AI. On the one hand, AI applications benefit from
a deeper understanding of problems related to Natural Language, and thus
the integration of advanced NLP techniques. On the other hand, NLP benefits
greatly from being used in wider areas of AI where problems and
methodologies related to NL can be evaluated in new contexts.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

Topics include but are not limited to:
NLP and AI Applications (health, legal domain, social media and journalism,
etc.)
Natural Language Interfaces for Human Robot Interaction
Resources, Benchmarks, and Evaluation
Discourse and Pragmatics
Semantics
Natural Language Generation
Creativity, Style, and Narrative Generation
Summarization
Information Extraction in AI Applications
Machine Learning for NLP
LLMs, Foundation Models and Applications
Interpretability, Explainability and Analysis of Models for NLP
Natural Language Inference
Question Answering and Reading Comprehension
Sentiment Analysis, Opinion Mining, and Argumentation
Abusive Language Detection and Analysis
NLP for Fact Checking, Fake News Detection and Analysis
Conversational Agents in Human-Computer Interaction
Speech and Spoken Language Processing
Language and other Multimodality
Multimodal (text-image) data sources
Machine Translation and Multilinguality
Low-Resource NLP and Linguistic Diversity
Cognitive Modeling and Psycholinguistics
Computational Historical Linguistics, Social Science, and Cultural Analytic=
s
Ethics, Fairness, and Societal Impacts of NLP
NLP and Industrial Challenges
Accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings via CEUR
Workshop Proceedings. Depending on the number and quality of papers
received, we will consider proposing a special issue in relevant journals.
The Program Committee will select the Best Workshop Paper from the accepted
papers.

SUBMISSIONS

We encourage original submissions that describe new theoretical models,
applied techniques, and research in progress. Substantial extensions to
works already published or presented in other locations are welcome as well=
.

We invite two kinds of submissions:
Short/Demo Paper. Maximum length of 6 pages + up to 2 pages of
Acknowledgements/Declaration on Generative AI/References
Regular Papers. Maximum length of 12 pages + up to 2 pages of references
Acknowledgements/Declaration on Generative AI/References.

Please note that papers with less than 25000 characters will be considered
short papers in the CEUR proceedings.

Submissions Evaluation. Submissions will be peer-reviewed (single-blind) by
the program committee members. Evaluation criteria will include novelty,
significance for theory/practice, technical soundness, and quality of
presentation. Note that reviewers will not be required to evaluate
appendices providing a review of the papers. Appendices are intended for
including details for reproducibility and/or additional results.

How to Submit. Proceedings shall be submitted to CEUR-WS.org for online
publication and all papers must follow the 2022 CEUR-ART - 1 Column paper
style.
The LaTeX template can be downloaded as source file from the NL4AI website
or accessed as a Template in Overleaf.

All the papers should be submitted via EasyChair:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=3Dnl4ai2026
Note: All submissions must be compatible with CEUR (https://ceur-ws.org/)
and include the CEUR Declaration on Generative AI section (
https://ceur-ws.org/GenAI/Policy.html). Papers missing this section will be
desk rejected.
