practitioners in related disciplines. The 24th edition, EPIA 2025, will
take place in Faro from 1st to 3rd of October, 2025. As in previous
editions, this international conference is hosted with the patronage of the
Portuguese Association for Artificial Intelligence (APPIA).

**************************************
CALL FOR PAPERS


We invite all members of the international AI research and industry
communities to submit their high-quality, previously unpublished papers to
EPIA 2025.

EPIA2025 is organized around thematic tracks. These are intended to provide
an environment that fosters an active exchange of ideas between attendees
within specific sub-areas of AI.

In addition to the parallel sessions for the different tracks, there will
be plenary sessions with invited lectures given by leading scientists,
discussion sessions, and social events. More detailed and up-to-date
information may be found at: https://epia2025.ualg.pt/




**************************************
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Papers should be prepared according to the Springer LNAI format
<https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines>,
using either a LaTeX or a Word template, with a maximum of 12 pages,
including references. However, authors should consider any track-specific
details in their submission.

EPIA 2025 will not accept any paper that, at the time of submission, is
under review for, has already been published in or has already been
accepted for publication in a journal or another venue with formally
published proceedings. Authors of EPIA 2025 submissions are also not
permitted to submit their paper to a journal or another venue with formally
published proceedings during the EPIA 2025 review period. (As a guideline,
authors should regard publications with a DOI, ISBN, or ISSN as formal
publications. Questions about submission eligibility should be referred to
the program chair before the deadline.) These restrictions do not apply to
workshops and similar specialized presentations without formally published
proceedings.

Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process and will
be peer-reviewed by at least three members of the respective thematic track
program committee.

It is the responsibility of the authors to remove names and affiliations
from the submitted papers, and to take reasonable care to assure anonymity
during the review process. Authors should also follow the standards as set
out in the Springer Nature code of conduct
<https://www.springernature.com/gp/authors/book-authors-code-of-conduct>.

All accepted papers will be published by Lecture Notes in Artificial
Intelligence, provided that at least one author is registered in EPIA2025
by the early registration deadline.

Each accepted paper is required to be presented by one of the authors in a
track session.

Prospective authors should select the thematic track to which their paper
is to be submitted.

EPIA2025 features the following thematic tracks covering a wide spectrum of
AI topics:
