13th International Conference on Foundations of Computer Science & Artificial Intelligence (FCSAI 2026) August 15 ~ 16, 2026, Melbourne, Australia https://cst2026.org/index Scope & Topics The 13th International Conference on Foundations of Computer Science & Artificial Intelligence (FCSAI 2026) is a premier global forum dedicated to advancing the theoretical, methodological, and foundational aspects of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence. Building on the legacy of the CST conference series, FCSAI 2026 expands its scope to embrace the rapidly evolving landscape of AI, machine learning, and intelligent systems, while maintaining a strong commitment to the core principles of theoretical computer science. The goal of FCSAI 2026 is to bring together researchers, practitioners, and innovators from academia and industry to deepen the understanding of modern computational foundations and intelligent technologies. The conference aims to foster collaboration across disciplines, promote rigorous scientific exchange, and highlight cutting edge developments that shape the future of computing and AI. Authors are invited to contribute high quality research articles, case studies, survey papers, and industrial experiences that demonstrate significant advances in foundational computer science, artificial intelligence theory, and their emerging intersections. Submissions may address, but are not limited to, the topics listed below. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following Algorithms, Complexity and Optimization Theory Algorithms and Data Structures Approximation Algorithms and Hardness of Approximation Fine Grained Complexity Computational Complexity Theory Communication and Information Complexity Randomized and Probabilistic Algorithms Streaming and Sub linear Time Algorithms Dynamic Algorithms and Data Structures Modern Graph Algorithms (connectivity, flows, cuts, near linear time) Discrepancy Theory and Combinatorial Optimization Spectral Graph Theory High Dimensional Probability in Algorithms Beyond Worst Case Analysis Smoothed Analysis Algebraic and Symbolic Computation Computational Geometry Large Scale and Uncertainty Aware Optimization Energy Efficient and Resource Aware Algorithms Algorithmic Foundations of AI (search, planning, heuristics) Computational Models of Intelligent Behavior   Theoretical Artificial Intelligence Foundations of Artificial Intelligence Computational Models of Intelligence Multi Agent Systems and Game Theoretic AI Planning, Search and Decision Making Theory Knowledge Representation and Reasoning Logic Based AI Neurosymbolic AI Theory AI Alignment and Safety Theory Interpretability and Explain ability Theory Computational Cognitive Science Theory of Intelligent Agents Symbolic, Sub symbolic and Hybrid AI Models Machine Learning Theory, Optimization and Foundations of AI Computational Learning Theory Statistical Learning Theory Optimization Theory for ML Implicit Bias of Gradient Descent Generalization in Over parameterized Models Computational Statistical Tradeoffs Reinforcement Learning Theory Theory of Foundation Models and Large Scale Neural Networks Adversarial Learning and Robustness Algorithmic Fairness and Transparency High Dimensional Geometry for ML Causal Inference Theory Clustering Theory and High Dimensional Data Analysis Explain ability, Interpretability and Ethical Foundations of AI Theoretical Guarantees for Large Language Models Learning Dynamics and Emergent Behaviors in AI Systems Quantum Computing and Quantum Information Theory Quantum Algorithms and Quantum Advantage Quantum Complexity Theory Quantum Error Correction and Fault Tolerance Hamiltonian Complexity Quantum Simulation Algorithms Quantum Machine Learning Theory Quantum Cryptography and Cryptanalysis Quantum Information Theory   Cryptography, Security and Information Theory Cryptography (Classical and Post Quantum) Lattice Based Cryptography Secure Multiparty Computation Zero Knowledge Proofs and Interactive Proofs Pseudo randomness and Derandomization Coding Theory and Error Correcting Codes Differential Privacy Theory Functional Encryption and Advanced Primitives Information Theoretic Security Block chain and Consensus Theory Cryptography from Worst Case Assumptions Theoretical Cryptanalysis (including quantum) Security Foundations for AI Systems Logic, Semantics, Verification and Automated Reasoning Program Semantics and Verification Formal Methods and Model Checking Type Theory and Proof Theory SAT/SMT Solving Theory Proof Complexity Automated Reasoning Symbolic Execution Theory Formal Verification of ML Systems Verified AI and Safety Critical Reasoning Logical Foundations of AI Planning and Inference Distributed, Parallel and Networked Computation Distributed Algorithms and Complexity Parallel Computing Theory Local Algorithms and Graph Models Congested Clique and Modern Distributed Models Fault Tolerant Distributed Systems Consensus and Synchronization Distributed Lower Bounds Distributed Optimization Federated Learning Theory Dynamic Graph Algorithms Algorithmic Foundations of Cloud–Edge Systems Distributed AI and Multi Agent Coordination   Interdisciplinary and Computational Sciences Theory applied to natural sciences, social systems and economics.
