Call for Posters

CAIN 2026 also invites poster submissions, which will be published in the proceedings as two‑page extended abstracts. Posters are a great medium for presenting new ideas, early‑stage work, emerging results, or open challenges, whether theoretical or practical, that align with the scope and topics of CAIN 2026. Papers that are rejected from the Research or Industry tracks but are of interest to the AI engineering community may be invited to instead publish and present their submission as a poster.

Submission

Poster authors need to submit a 2-page extended abstract that should adhere to the below formatting guidelines. The 2-page extended abstract of each accepted poster will be published in the CAIN’26 proceedings.

Submissions must conform to the official ACM Primary Article Template, which can be obtained from the ACM Proceedings Template page. LaTeX users should use the sigconf option, as well as the review (to produce line numbers for easy reference by the reviewers) and anonymous (omitting author names) options. To that end, the following LaTeX code can be placed at the start of the LaTeX document: \documentclass[sigconf,review,anonymous]{acmart}.

Important requirements:

• Abstracts must be submitted electronically via the HotCRP submission site before the submission deadline.
• Submissions that do not comply with formatting instructions or page limits will be desk rejected.
• At least one author of each accepted submission must:
  • Register for the CAIN 2026 conference, and
  • Present the corresponding poster during the conference poster sessions.
