Camera-Ready Paper & Copyright Form

International and Domestic Track camera-ready papers are due October 31, 2026, 23:59 AoE (Taipei time: November 1, 2026, 19:59). The High School Session camera-ready materials and registration are due November 8, 2026, 23:59 AoE. See What to submit and Important Dates.

AoE means Anywhere on Earth (UTC−12). A deadline of 23:59 AoE has not passed as long as it is still that date anywhere on Earth. It ends at 11:59 UTC on the next day, which is 19:59 the next day in Taipei (UTC+8). For example, October 31, 2026, 23:59 AoE is November 1, 2026, 19:59 in Taipei.

Both fall on October 31, 2026, 23:59 AoE, but they are separate steps. Camera-ready is about submitting your final files; early-bird rates apply only to registration and payment received by that time. Presenting authors must also be registered by the camera-ready deadline, so their registration is made at early-bird rates. Completing one does not complete the other. See Registration.

No extension has been announced. Any change will be posted on Important Dates and in News; please do not plan on an extension.

No. After acceptance you choose between Publish in the Official Proceedings and Presentation Only (NOT-to-Publish). The choice is independent of peer review and of your Oral/Poster assignment. See the Publication Policy.

The choice you make at the Camera-Ready stage is the final publication decision. Decide carefully before the deadline.

Yes. Presentation Only means the paper is not published in the proceedings; it does not cancel your presentation slot, and the registration requirement for accepted papers still applies: at least one author must complete registration by the camera-ready deadline and present on-site. Presentation Only authors do not need to submit the copyright form.

Final papers use the Springer LNCS A4 format and are submitted as PDF. Page counts include references and appendices. Papers accepted as Oral Presentation are published as Full Papers (base 12–15 pages; up to 17 pages with paid extra pages), and papers accepted as Poster Presentation are published as Short Papers (base 6–11 pages; up to 13 pages with paid extra pages). See the page length and additional page fee policy and Downloads for the Springer instructions.

Yes. The base length of a Full Paper is 12–15 pages; you may pay to add up to 2 more pages, for a maximum of 17 pages in total. Pages 16 and 17 cost NT$1,500 each. All page counts include references and appendices. See the page policy.

If you choose Publish, prepare the final paper under the Short Paper rules: the base length is 6–11 pages, and you may pay to add up to 2 more pages, for a maximum of 13 pages; pages 12 and 13 cost NT$1,500 each. A 12–13 page paper can therefore be submitted after paying the additional page fee, while a 14–15 page paper must be shortened to at most 13 pages. Page counts include references and appendices. A paper with paid extra pages is still published as a Short Paper, and its presentation format remains Poster. See the Call for Papers FAQ Q17.

No. A Short Paper (base 6–11 pages, up to 13 with paid extra pages) is a peer-reviewed paper published in the Springer CCIS post-proceedings. An Extended Abstract (up to 2 pages) is a Domestic Track format that is not published in the archival proceedings.

Submit the final paper as a PDF together with the source files (e.g., a Word file, or LaTeX files as a ZIP), plus the paper abstract and the signed copyright form (as a PDF) where required by your track. Source files are the files used to produce the PDF: a Word file in .docx format without macros (.docm files are not accepted), or all LaTeX files including style files, figures, and the .bib/.bbl file, packaged as a ZIP. The PDF must correspond exactly to the source files. These requirements follow the Springer instructions for authors for the International Track. Upload them in the Camera Ready Revision form on OpenReview (see How to submit).

Authors who choose Publish submit the final paper (up to 6 A4 pages, using the TAAI 2026 Word template) as a PDF with the source files (e.g., Word file, or LaTeX files as a ZIP), the paper abstract, and the copyright form by the deadline. Templates are under Downloads. Authors who choose Presentation Only do not need the copyright form.

Extended abstracts (up to 2 A4 pages, using the TAAI 2026 extended abstract template) are normally presented as posters and are not archival publications. In the Camera Ready Revision form, select Presentation Only (NOT-to-Publish) (see Q52). Final abstract materials are submitted as instructed by the Organizing Committee.

High School Session camera-ready materials and registration are due together on November 8, 2026, 23:59 AoE. Please follow the instructions on the High School Session page.

It is the author's authorization for the paper to be published in the proceedings. It is required only for papers that are going to be published, that is, when the author chooses Publish.

Only authors who choose Publish. Authors who choose Presentation Only do not need to submit it.

International Track: the Springer copyright / publication authorization form (see Downloads). Domestic Track full papers: the TAAI 2026 copyright form, submitted together with the paper abstract and the camera-ready paper. Domestic extended abstracts and the High School Session follow the instructions given for those formats.

International Track: One corresponding author per paper signs the Springer license-to-publish agreement on behalf of all authors. This author must match the corresponding author marked in the paper header, must have the full right and authority to sign for all co-authors, and accepts responsibility for releasing the material on their behalf. Domestic Track: Any one of the listed authors may sign the TAAI 2026 copyright form on behalf of all co-authors, after obtaining their consent. The license is non-exclusive and royalty-free, and the authors keep the copyright. By signing, the signer confirms that the work is original, that they have the right to grant the license, and that it does not infringe any third party’s rights. Fill in the Paper ID (your OpenReview submission number), paper title, author names, and the signer’s name, affiliation, phone, address, email, and date. It is good practice to obtain co-authors’ consent in writing (for example, by email) and keep the record.

Yes. Both a scan of your handwritten signature and an image file of your signature are accepted. Return the signed copyright form as a PDF file together with your other camera-ready files. Upload it in the copyright form field of the Camera Ready Revision form on OpenReview.

International Track: Yes. Designate exactly one corresponding author per paper, mark them clearly in the paper header, and include their email address (mandatory). The corresponding author signs the license-to-publish agreement and checks the final proofs. Authors’ names and order and the corresponding author cannot be changed once the files have been delivered to Springer.

Such authors often have to sign an alternative agreement, and more than one agreement may be required for a paper if some authors need a special form. Springer recommends contacting your own legal department as soon as the paper is accepted, because unresolved copyright issues can delay publication. Please also tell the Organizing Committee early.

Yes. Please make sure the paper title, author names, and affiliations on the form are consistent with your camera-ready paper. Once the files are sent to the publisher, they cannot be changed.

Yes. Presenting authors must complete registration and payment by the camera-ready deadline (October 31, 2026, 23:59 AoE; High School Session: November 8, 2026). Every accepted paper needs at least one such author who also presents on-site; otherwise the paper may be removed from the program and cannot be published. Registration and file submission are separate steps, so please complete both by the deadline. See Registration.

Presenting authors must complete registration and payment by the camera-ready deadline, October 31, 2026, 23:59 AoE (High School Session: November 8, 2026, 23:59 AoE), to secure their presentation slot. Early-bird rates apply to payments received by October 31, 2026, 23:59 AoE. The regular registration deadline of November 13, 2026, 23:59 AoE applies to other attendees; registrations and payments received after it are treated as on-site registration.

International Session authors register as Full Registration / Presenting Author. Domestic Session authors register as Presenting Author (full paper) or Presenting Author (extended abstract). Student registrations must be accompanied by proof of status. Fees are listed on the Registration page.

Yes. Each accepted paper needs its own registration: for every accepted paper, at least one author must complete registration and payment and present on-site. If you have more than one accepted paper, please register for each paper separately. See Registration for categories, fees, and deadlines.

Cancellation and refund requests must be sent in writing (by email) to the TAAI 2026 Registration Office. Before the early-bird deadline, prepaid fees are refunded in full; after it, no refund is applicable. See the cancellation & refund policy on the Registration page. Please note that a paper without a registered author may be removed from the program.

International and Domestic Track authors of accepted papers submit through the Camera Ready Revision form on OpenReview. Log in with your OpenReview account, open your accepted paper, click Edit > Camera Ready Revision, upload your files, choose Publish or Presentation Only, and submit before the deadline. See How to submit. High School Session materials are sent as instructed on the High School Session page.

The Camera Ready Revision form is open for authors of accepted papers now that the acceptance decisions have been released, and closes after the camera-ready deadline. Only the authors of an accepted paper can use the form for that paper. The revision you submit is applied directly to the paper, so the paper always shows the latest version.

No special naming scheme is required: upload each file in its own field of the OpenReview form. Please keep file names short, as Springer asks authors not to use long file names.

Please contact the Organizing Committee at taai2026org@gmail.com before the deadline. High School Session authors can use the contact on the High School Session page.

Before the camera-ready deadline, authors can update the final files and information through OpenReview. Please make sure that the author names, author order, affiliations, and corresponding author are correct, and consistent with your OpenReview records.

• To add or remove an author, change the author order, or change the corresponding author (International and Domestic Tracks), please contact the Program Chairs (taai2026org@gmail.com) first for confirmation.
• Corrections of name spelling or affiliation can be made yourselves in the form; keep Authors Full Names and Authors Emails consistent with the Authors field.

Please treat the last version submitted before the camera-ready deadline as final; after the deadline, changes to author information are generally not accepted. International Track papers for which the author chooses Publish are sent to Springer for publication: once the files are delivered, authors cannot be added, removed, or reordered, and the corresponding author cannot be changed. Please check all author information carefully before submitting to avoid affecting the publication process.

Check the paper title, author names, affiliations, and author email addresses; that the paper is at the correct length for its accepted paper type; and that the copyright form (Publish only) matches the paper.

No. Authors who choose Publish must complete the camera-ready submission, publication authorization, and the registration and presentation requirements; final inclusion of any individual paper is still subject to the publisher's review. See the Publication Policy.

Review result notifications are sent from TAAI 2026 <taai2026-notifications@openreview.net> (OpenReview) to the email addresses registered with the authors’ OpenReview accounts. Please check your spam or junk folder and make sure messages from that address are allowed. You can also see your paper’s final decision and any available reviewer comments by logging in to OpenReview and opening your paper. If you still cannot find the notification, contact taai2026org@gmail.com. Replies to the notification email go to taai2026org@gmail.com.

Log in to OpenReview with the account used to submit the paper, open your accepted paper (for example from the Author Console), and click Edit; Camera Ready Revision appears in that menu. Only the authors of an accepted paper can use it. If it still does not appear, check that you are logged in with the correct account and contact taai2026org@gmail.com.

Required: PDF, Publication Decision, Authors Full Names, Corresponding Author Email, Authors Emails, and Signatures. Source Files and Copyright Form are required when you select Publish, and Abstract File is for Domestic Track full papers that select Publish. See the field table under How to submit.

Enter the full names of all authors in the exact order shown in the final manuscript, separated by semicolons (;). In Authors Emails, enter each author’s email in the same order as the names, also separated by semicolons. These emails are used only by the conference and the Publication Chairs for the proceedings. If you correct an author in the Authors field, update these two fields to match. Contact the Program Chairs before adding or removing an author or changing the order (see Q33).

International Track: the email address of the ONE designated corresponding author (exactly one is required, and it must match the manuscript header). Domestic Track: the email address of any one author.

Select Presentation Only (NOT-to-Publish) in Publication Decision, then complete the PDF, Authors Full Names, Corresponding Author Email, Authors Emails, and Signatures fields. Leave Source Files, Copyright Form, and Abstract File empty.

It is only for Domestic Track full papers that select Publish: upload the required paper abstract document, following the TAAI 2026 domestic camera-ready instructions (see the paper abstract template under Downloads). International Track authors leave it empty.

OpenReview requires you to choose which group you are submitting the revision as. The dropdown offers TAAI 2026 Conference Submission<number> Authors and TAAI 2026 Conference Program Chairs. Authors must select TAAI 2026 Conference Submission<number> Authors (the number is your paper number). The Readers line above it shows who can read the revision: the conference and your paper’s authors.

No. Paid extra pages do not change the accepted paper type, the publication type, or the presentation format. A paper accepted as Oral is still published as a Full Paper, and a paper accepted as Poster is still published as a Short Paper with a Poster presentation. See the page policy.

No. The additional page fee (NT$1,500 per extra page; NT$3,000 for two) is charged separately, in addition to the registration fee required for the paper, but it is paid together with the registration fee in the online registration system. See the page policy and Registration.

The additional page fee is due by the camera-ready deadline, October 31, 2026, 23:59 AoE (Taipei time: November 1, 2026, 19:59), and is paid together with the registration fee in the online registration system. See the page policy.

No. The page limits and the additional page fee apply only to papers published in the proceedings (Publish). They do not apply to Presentation Only (NOT-to-Publish) papers.

No. The additional page fee applies only to International Track papers published in the proceedings. Domestic Track page limits are fixed: a Full Paper is up to 6 A4 pages and an Extended Abstract is up to 2 A4 pages. The only fee for Domestic Track authors is the registration fee for the paper (Presenting Author, full paper or extended abstract); see Registration.

At submission, all International Track manuscripts follow the same length (12–15 pages). After the review decision, the paper type in the proceedings is determined by the presentation format: papers accepted as Oral are published as Full Papers (base 12–15 pages; up to 17 pages with paid extra pages), and papers accepted as Poster are published as Short Papers (base 6–11 pages; up to 13 pages with paid extra pages). A paper accepted as Poster that was submitted at 12–15 pages must therefore be adjusted to the Short Paper length if you choose Publish. See Q10 and the page policy.

Yes, if you choose Presentation Only (NOT-to-Publish): the page limits and the additional page fee do not apply, and you still present as assigned, but the paper is not included in the proceedings. If you want the paper published, a Poster paper must fit the Short Paper limit of at most 13 pages (base 6–11 pages plus up to 2 paid extra pages), including references and appendices.

On-site presentation is the default. Authors who cannot travel for a justified reason (for example, a visa refusal supported by documentation) may apply in advance for a remote or pre-recorded presentation. Presenting-author registration and payment by October 31, 2026, 23:59 AoE are still required, and publication in the proceedings is unchanged. Applications are due by November 10, 2026, 23:59 AoE and videos (shared as a cloud-storage link) by November 16, 2026, 23:59 AoE. See the Registration FAQ for how to apply and the video requirements, and how to request a visa invitation letter.

Select Presentation Only (NOT-to-Publish). A Domestic Extended Abstract is a non-archival conference presentation and is not published in the proceedings; choosing Publish does not change this. Your title, authors, affiliations, and abstract may still be listed in the TAAI 2026 Program & Abstract Book. Leave Source Files, Copyright Form, and Abstract File empty, complete the other required fields, and submit the final abstract materials as instructed. At least one student author must still register as Presenting Author (extended abstract) by October 31, 2026, 23:59 AoE. See the Call for Papers FAQ Q30 and Q31.

No. Extended Abstracts and Full Papers are separate submission formats with different review standards, and the Full Paper submission period has closed. An accepted Extended Abstract remains an Extended Abstract presented as a poster. After the conference you may extend the work and submit it to another conference or journal, subject to that venue’s policies (see Call for Papers FAQ Q40).

Posters should be A0 portrait (84.1 cm × 118.9 cm); smaller formats such as A1 are acceptable, landscape posters are not permitted. Include the paper title, authors, affiliations, motivation and objectives, methods, results, and conclusions, with figures preferred and fonts readable from 1–2 meters. Presenters print and bring their own posters; poster boards and mounting materials are provided, and each accepted poster paper is assigned a display space. Poster session times and board numbers are listed under Paper Sessions; setup and removal times will be announced later. See the Poster Presentation Guidelines.
