TAAI 2026/About

About the conference

TAAI 2026

The 31st International Conference on Technologies and Applications of Artificial Intelligence (TAAI 2026)

TAAI 2026 is the 31st edition of Taiwan's flagship artificial intelligence conference — a two-day retreat in the hills of Sanxia, New Taipei, where researchers and practitioners gather to argue, listen, and build what's next.

1 / Theme

Agentic AI and Physical AI for cross-domain sustainable innovation.

What sparks will fly when agentic AI meets physical, embodied intelligence?

For three decades, TAAI has tracked the movement of artificial intelligence from theory to practice. In 2026, we turn our attention to two currents reshaping the field in parallel: agentic AI — systems that plan, reason, and act with autonomy — and physical AI — intelligence that learns through a body, in the messy, constrained, consequential real world.

These two currents are no longer running separately. The question for this edition is what it looks like when they meet — and when we insist that their meeting serve sustainable, cross-disciplinary ends.

◦ Pillar 1

Agentic systems

LLM-driven agents, tool use, multi-agent coordination, long-horizon planning, memory, and alignment for autonomous action.

◦ Pillar 2

Physical intelligence

Robotics, embodied learning, foundation models for control, sim-to-real, and AI that operates under physical constraints.

◦ Pillar 3

Sustainable frontiers

Green finance, climate-aware ML, responsible deployment, tech ethics, and cross-domain industrial applications that scale.

2 / Organizers

Jointly organized by the TAAI and NTPU.

Taiwanese Association for AI

TAAI

Founded to advance research, education, and application of artificial intelligence across Taiwan. TAAI hosts this conference annually, bringing together the country's AI community with international peers.

Host institution

National Taipei University

NTPU's faculty across computer science, data science, business, and law anchor this year's cross-disciplinary agenda — ensuring the dialogue reaches beyond any single department's walls.

3 / What to expect

Two days of signal.

◦ Keynotes

Four keynote talks

Invited speakers from agentic AI, embodied intelligence, and applied AI communities.

◦ Papers

Peer-reviewed research

Technical sessions for accepted full papers, short papers, and posters.

◦ Panels

Cross-domain panels

Researchers, industry practitioners, and policy voices in direct conversation.

◦ Workshops

Targeted workshops

Focused sessions for emerging themes, student work, and application tracks.

◦ Social

Forest banquet

Shared meals and informal discussion in a quieter setting outside the city.

◦ Student track

Emerging researchers

Opportunities for students to present, connect, and receive feedback.

4 / Recent editions
