RELAF2026 explores how artificial intelligence can advance forensic analysis, digital evidence analysis, and evidential reasoning in judicial and law enforcement contexts. We invite submissions on novel Artificial Intelligence methods, systems, and case studies at the intersection of (digital) forensics, law enforcement practice, and evidence-based legal reasoning, including critical perspectives on legal and technical challenges.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• AI legislation and its impact on law enforcement

• Formal models of reasoning with evidence (e.g., argumentation, Bayesian networks)

• Machine learning for forensics and legal information retrieval

• Natural language processing for law enforcement data

• Logical and probabilistic knowledge representation for forensics

• Legal and ethical issues in the use of AI for forensics and law enforcement

• Explainable and transparent AI for evidential decision-making

• Simulation and synthetic data generation for forensic and law enforcement evaluation
