=== Topics of Interest ===

The AIxIA 2022 edition is the 21st year of an event born inside the 
Italian AI association, but rapidly grown up to an international 
dimension, attracting scholars from all over the world. This edition of 
AIxIA will be held in Udine in a mixed in-presence and online mode, thus 
making it easier to attend and present papers from any part of the globe.

Based on a plural point of view, the main conference covers the wide 
spectrum of topics that characterize modern Artificial Intelligence, 
while a number of specific topics are also covered by dedicated thematic 
workshops. Workshops will be announced later on and we foresee a 
significant participation by the research communities, in the vein of 
the success of the previous AIxIA editions.

The main track of the AIxIA 2022 conference welcomes submissions 
covering all areas of AI, including (but not limited to)
- machine learning,
- search and planning,
- knowledge representation and reasoning,
- constraint satisfaction and optimization,
- natural language processing,
- argumentation,
- robotics and perception,
- autonomous agents and multiagent systems,
- ethical and cultural issues in AI.

We encourage all types of high-quality contributions including 
theoretical, engineering, and applied papers. We also encourage 
contributions to AI techniques in the context of established and novel 
application domains, such as (cyber)security, sustainability, ageing, 
health care, cultural heritage, manufacturing, transportation, and 
commerce.

Finally, papers describing AI approaches and applications targeting 
societal challenges, including, for example, solutions for the 
mitigation and management of public health crises, as well as hot topics 
within the community, such as the assessment and mitigation of different 
kinds of biases, and in general ethical issues in AI, are particularly 
welcome.

Besides regular papers presenting results not already published we also 
welcome short "discussion papers" (maximum eight pages) containing      
- descriptions of results recently published or accepted for the 
presentation in première international conferences and journals related 
to AI field;      - position papers discussing potentially controversial 
topics in AI or personal points of views about specific topics in AI.

Discussion papers are introduced as an opportunity for the authors to 
present their recent results to the AI community and to stimulate debate 
among attendees of AIxIA 2022 and potential collaborations thereof.

At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and 
attend the conference to present the work.

=== Proceedings of Regular Papers ===

Accepted regular papers will be included in the proceedings of the 
conference and will be published by Springer Verlag in the Lecture Notes 
in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI) series.

Authors of selected regular papers accepted to the main track will be 
invited to submit an extended version for publication on "Intelligenza 
Artificiale", the International Journal of the Italian Association for 
Artificial Intelligence, edited by IOS Press and indexed by Thomson 
Reuters' "Emerging Sources Citation Index" and Scopus by Elsevier.

=== Proceedings of Discussion Papers ===

Discussion papers will not be included in the LNAI proceedings of the 
conference, and will be published on CEUR WS Proceedings upon request. 
Discussion papers will be presented and discussed at the conference 
together with regular submissions.

=== Best Papers Awards ===

The Program Committee will select the Best Student Paper and the Best 
Paper from the accepted regular papers. In order to be eligible for the 
Best Student Paper Award, at least one author must be a student.

=== Submission Instructions ===

Submitted papers should be written in English and formatted according to 
the Springer LNCS style 
(https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines). 
Regular papers must be original papers, which are not being submitted 
simultaneously for publication elsewhere. These papers should not exceed 
12 pages, with any number of additional pages containing bibliographic 
references only.

Discussion papers report results already published or accepted for 
publication in international conferences, and should not exceed 8 pages 
with any number of additional pages containing bibliographic references 
only.

Paper submission is electronic through Easychair:
