NL4AI 2026 – 9th Workshop on Natural Language for Artificial Intelligence, at the 24th International Conference of the Italian Association for Artificial Intelligence (AIxIA 2026 <https://aixia2026.unipg.it/>) 6–9 October 2026 | Perugia, Italy ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ Website: http://sag.art.uniroma2.it/NL4AI/ Contact Email: [email protected] ── IMPORTANT DATES ────────────────── [EXTENDED] Paper Submission deadline: 6th July 2026 24 July 2026, 23:59 AoE 🚨 Notification to authors: 19 August 2026 Camera-ready due: 26 August 2026 Workshop Dates: 6–9 October 2026 ──────────────────────────────────── Deadline extended. Following requests, we are giving authors two extra weeks to submit their papers. If you have work in progress at the intersection of NLP and AI, this is your window. Now in its ninth edition, NL4AI brings together researchers working where Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing meet the broader field of Artificial Intelligence. The most interesting problems often live at that boundary: AI systems become more capable when they understand language deeply, and NLP methods gain new meaning when tested in wider AI settings. NL4AI is meant to be a moment for the Italian NLP community to come together. Co-located with AIxIA 2026 and supported by AILC, the workshop is a friendly, discussion-oriented venue to meet colleagues, present finished results, ongoing work, and early ideas, and to get feedback across both sides of the NLP–AI boundary. We warmly invite contributions from labs and researchers in Italy and beyond. We especially welcome contributions that connect language to reasoning, interaction, multimodality, and real-world applications, as well as critical work on evaluation, interpretability, and the societal impact of language technologies. 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 <http://sag.art.uniroma2.it/NL4AI/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/CEURART-NL4AI-2026.zip> or accessed as a Template in Overleaf <https://it.overleaf.com/read/cfvwgnqpvpys#a7a014>. All the papers should be submitted via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=nl4ai2026 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.
