How to plan a year of AI paper submissions
- Work back from the conference date. Paper deadlines for academic conferences typically fall four to eight months before the event, so a conference in the second half of 2027 usually has its deadline in the first half. Check each event page for the source of its deadline.
- Plan for resubmission. If a paper is rejected, the next conference in the same field is often only a few months later. The field tables above make that next step easy to spot.
- Look at workshops. Most large research conferences host workshops with later, shorter calls for papers, which suit early results and position papers.
- Budget for travel early. Many conferences offer student volunteer places, and some offer travel grants; AgentConfs lists those it can confirm on AI conference travel grants.
- Check visa timing. Invitation letters are usually issued only after registration, and some consulates need months, so register as soon as acceptance is confirmed.
