SAIS ’23
The 35th Swedish Artificial Intelligence Society (SAIS'23) annual workshop in Karlskrona, Sweden
Welcome to the 35th Swedish Artificial Intelligence Society (SAIS) annual workshop: SAIS 2023. We invite you to submit papers to SAIS 2023, The Swedish AI Society’s annual workshop. It will be hosted in Karlskrona, Sweden, on June 12-13, 2023. The event is hosted by BTH – Blekinge Institute of Technology, and is planned to be an on-campus event in Karlskrona, Sweden.
SAIS was formed in 1982 and the annual workshop has seen a growing number of participants joining from all over Sweden, the Nordic countries and internationally. During the workshop, the scientific program consisting of paper presentations and keynote speakers (more info to come), is intermixed with networking opportunities with both academics and industry partners as part of the event’s social program.
We invite four types of contributions to SAIS 2023, from all areas of AI research, from Sweden and the rest of the world:
- 6-10 pages full paper describing original contributions. General descriptions of current ongoing projects are also acceptable. This category will be published in the proceedings of SAIS 2023 unless the authors choose to opt-out of this. Choose track ”SAIS23 – full papers” when submitting your paper.
- 2 pages extended abstracts of papers published by or submitted to other AI venues, e.g. AI journals and AI conferences, within the last 12 months. The two pages should include everything, including references, figures, etc. These will not be included in the proceedings, but can still be presented. Choose track ”SAIS23 – extended abstracts, previously published papers” when submitting your extended abstract.
- 2 pages extended abstract describing the industrial application of AI, demonstrating use cases that can leverage machine learning and AI techniques in a real-world setting. The two pages should include everything, including references, figures, etc. The first author should be from the industry. Choose track ”SAIS23 – extended abstracts, industrial applications” when submitting your extended abstract.
- 2 pages extended abstract describing ongoing Ph.D. projects (the first author has to be a Ph.D. student). The problem statement and research question/s have to be clearly introduced and motivated.

The program committee will review all the papers and extended abstracts. The accepted contributions will be presented either as oral presentations, practical demonstrations or poster sessions.
All papers will be carefully reviewed by the program committee. Accepted papers will be published in the electronic workshop proceedings (more details will be communicated).
