23º Encontro Nacional de Inteligência Artificial e Computacional
ENIAC 2026 is the 23rd edition of a series of successful meetings bringing together Artificial Intelligence and Computational Intelligence, supported by Brazilian Special Interest Groups on Artificial Intelligence and Computational Intelligence from the Brazilian Computer Society. ENIAC is part of the 36th Brazilian Conference on Intelligent Systems (BRACIS). This Brazilian meeting provides a forum for researchers, practitioners, educators, and students to present and discuss innovations, trends, experiences, and developments in the Artificial Intelligence and Computational Intelligence fields. "In particular, it is the ideal event for postgraduate and undergraduate students to submit and present their ongoing results, even their first papers".
Authors are encouraged to submit articles containing new ideas, discussions on existing work, practical studies, and experiments relevant to the Artificial and Computational Intelligence fields, which have not been previously published. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Analytics and Data Science
Artificial Life and Real-Time Simulation

Manuscripts are limited to twelve (12) pages, including text, references, appendices, tables, and figures. Articles may be written either in Portuguese or English. Papers written in Portuguese must have titles and abstracts in English. All manuscripts should be prepared using the SBC Template for papers, and those that do not follow the formatting guidelines might be rejected without review.
Submissions should be carried out online using the JEMS3 system: https://jems3.sbc.org.br/eniac2026. Please select the appropriate track (Undergraduate track for papers whose main author is an Undergraduate student, Main track for the others). The review process will be double-anonymous (authors' names and institutions must be omitted in the submitted papers). All submissions will be reviewed by at least two experts in the field. Authors of accepted papers will be invited to present their work in an oral presentation or a poster session. All accepted papers will likely be published electronically through the SBC Open Lib – SOL. There will be no distinction between papers presented in oral or poster format in the proceedings.
Generative AI models (including Chat-GPT, BARD, LLaMA, Gemini, etc.) or similar LLMs do not meet the article authorship criteria to be accepted into ENIAC 2026. However, we encourage articles that describe research on or involving such advanced AI models and tools. If authors use an LLM in any part of the article writing process, they take full responsibility for all content, including checking for plagiarism and correcting all text.
