JELIA 2025

Call For Papers

The Program Committee of the 19th European Conference on Logics in Artificial Intelligence (JELIA 2025) invites the submission of technical papers for the conference that will be held in Kutaisi, Georgia, from the 1st to the 5th of September of 2025.

Aim and Scope

The aim of JELIA 2025 is to bring together active researchers interested in the use of logics in Artificial Intelligence, in order to discuss current research, results, problems, and applications of both theoretical and practical nature. JELIA strives to foster links and facilitate cross-fertilization of ideas among researchers from various disciplines, among researchers from academia and industry, and between theoreticians and practitioners.

Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original and unpublished research in all areas related to the use of logics in Artificial Intelligence, including, but not limited to:

  • Abductive and inductive reasoning
  • Applications of logic-based AI systems
  • Argumentation
  • Automated reasoning including satisfiability checking and its extensions
  • Causality and logics
  • Computational complexity and expressiveness
  • Deontic logic and normative systems
  • Description logics and other logical approaches to ontologies
  • Knowledge representation, reasoning, and compilation
  • Learning and reasoning
  • Logic programming, answer set programming, constraint logic programming
  • Logics for uncertain and probabilistic reasoning
  • Logics in machine learning
  • Logics in multi-agent systems, games, and social choice
  • Neural networks and logic rules
  • Non-classical logics, such as modal, temporal, epistemic, dynamic, spatial, paraconsistent, and hybrid logics
  • Nonmonotonic logics, default logics, conditional logics
  • Planning and diagnosis based on logic
  • Preferences and optimization
  • Reasoning about actions
  • Updates, belief revision and nonmonotonic reasoning

Submissions describing implemented systems/applications and their application area(s) are also welcome.

Special Track

Also this year we will include a Special Track on Logics for Explainable and Trustworthy AI. We welcome contributions that describe logic-based approaches to making AI more transparent, safer, or more trustable. The track aims to draw attention to this timely topic and create a space for discussing the role of logic. The papers accepted for the special track will be presented in dedicated sessions at the conference.

Awards

JELIA 2025 is happy to announce that there will be Best Paper and Best Student Paper Prizes sponsored by Springer, each is a cash prize amounting to EUR 500. The Program Committee will select for this honor the contribution of the highest technical excellence and scientific merit. In the case of the latter award, the primary author of the paper must be a student at the time of submission.

Submission Details

JELIA 2025 Submission on EasyChair

JELIA 2025 welcomes submissions of long or short papers. All submissions should contain original research, and sufficient detail to assess the merits and relevance of the contribution. Submissions must not have been previously published or be simultaneously submitted for publication elsewhere; see also the note below.

All submissions should not exceed 13 pages for long papers and 6 pages for short papers (excluding references and acknowledgments, including everything else, for example figures), and should be written in English. Papers must be self-contained; appendices with additional material (such as proofs) will only be considered at the reviewers' discretion and will not be published. Submissions must be formatted according to the standard Springer LNCS style (see https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines), and are not anonymous. The conference proceedings of JELIA 2025 will be published by Springer Verlag in the series Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, a sub-series of Lecture Notes in Computer Science (important note: Springer will require all the LaTeX source files of all accepted submissions).

Important Dates

  • Abstract submission: 2 May 2025
  • Paper submission: 9 May 2025
  • Notification of acceptance: 1 July 2025

Policy on multiple Submissions

JELIA 2025 will not accept any paper that, at the time of submission, is under review or has already been published or accepted for publication in a journal or another conference. Authors are also required not to submit their papers elsewhere during JELIA's review period. However, these restrictions do not apply to previous workshops with a limited audience and without archival proceedings.

Any additional questions can be directed towards the JELIA Chairs: jelia2025@easychair.org
