AI4SC @ AAAI 2027
Third AAAI Bridge on Artificial Intelligence for Scholarly Communication
co-located with the 41st Annual AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence
co-located with the 41st Annual AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence
The rapid developments in AI have a profound impact on many aspects of scholarly research. The Third Bridge on Artificial Intelligence for Scholarly Communication (AI4SC) aims to bridge the gap between AI approaches and practical solutions for scholarly research. The two-day bridge program aims to discuss the potential that AI has to offer scholarly researchers, including opportunities for AI research assistants, comprehensive literature analysis, and the automated extraction and organization of scholarly knowledge. In addition, we also acknowledge the challenges and difficulties associated with AI for scholarly research, including a lack of AI literacy, publication overload, diminishing peer review, and pressing issues regarding knowledge sharing.
In our previous two editions of this Bridge, also hosted at AAAI, we organized a highly interactive bridge program, with plenty of room for presentations, discussions, and audience participation. In this year's edition, we welcome the following submissions: research papers, short/vision papers, posters/demos, and non-archival submissions. We especially encourage submissions of interactive sessions and tutorials. As developments in AI continue to advance rapidly, our Bridge is more relevant than ever, as individual scientists are at a pivotal point in discovering how AI can be effectively, responsibly, and meaningfully integrated into scholarly research and communication.
