The Conference

The International Conference on Innovations in Intelligent Systems and Applications (INISTA) has been organized since 2005. The conference aims to bring together researchers, practitioners, and industry experts from the broad and multidisciplinary fields of intelligent systems, providing an international forum for the exchange of ideas, scientific results, and technological advances.

INISTA promotes effective communication and collaboration among the scientific community working on innovative approaches in artificial intelligence and intelligent systems. The conference focuses on the theory, design, development, and practical applications of intelligent systems across various domains.

The INISTA 2026 edition will be held in the historic city of Guimarães, Portugal, hosted by the University of Minho.
