About
IEEE ICTAI 2026 is the 38th edition of the IEEE International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence, a long-established academic venue for research on AI methods, systems and applications. Proceedings are published by the IEEE Computer Society, and the conference attracts university researchers, graduate students and industry scientists working across the breadth of artificial intelligence. This AI research conference takes place in person in Boca Raton, Florida. Papers are selected through double-blind peer review and span a wide set of tracks: AI foundations, machine learning, knowledge representation and reasoning, natural language processing including large language models, uncertainty in AI, decision systems, data analytics and big data, smart cities, domain applications in fields such as biomedicine and finance, computer systems and robotics, AI and societal impact, and quantum computing combined with AI. Attendees gain direct exposure to new research results, opportunities to present and discuss their own work, and connections with academic collaborators. Selected papers may be extended for journal special issues, and awards recognise outstanding student and overall contributions. With nearly four decades of history, ICTAI remains an important forum where AI theory meets practical tools and real-world applications.

Planning your trip to Boca Raton
Contains sponsored linksIEEE ICTAI meets in Boca Raton in early November, at the point where South Florida becomes genuinely pleasant: humidity drops, hurricane season is closing, and afternoons settle in the high twenties. This is a low-rise, planned coastal city of Mediterranean-revival architecture, mangrove inlets and long public beaches, sitting between Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. It is quiet, spread out, and organised around driving rather than walking.
Getting there & around
Fort Lauderdale (FLL) is about 40 kilometres south, 30 to 40 minutes by road; Palm Beach (PBI) is a similar distance north and often cheaper for domestic connections; Miami (MIA) is an hour or more. Tri-Rail commuter trains stop at Boca Raton, and Brightline serves Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach with a short onward transfer.
Skip the taxi queue — pre-book a fixed-price airport transfer with Kiwitaxi. Exploring beyond the city? compare rental cars on EconomyBookings.
Staying connected
Coverage along the coastal corridor is strong and campus networks are fast. Visitors from outside the US generally find an eSIM cheaper than carrier roaming for a conference week. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
After the sessions
Gumbo Limbo Nature Center. A boardwalk through coastal hammock and mangrove leads to sea-turtle rehabilitation tanks and a research aquarium, all a short drive from the conference district. Entry is by donation, the trail takes under an hour, and early morning is when the wading birds are most active.
Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens. Six gardens in different historical Japanese styles surround a museum documenting the Yamato colony of Japanese farmers who settled this part of Florida a century ago. It sits twenty minutes west in Delray Beach and needs about two hours, most of it outdoors. Tickets on Tiqets →
Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge. The northern remnant of the Everglades begins half an hour west, with a cypress boardwalk, marsh trails and canoe routes. Alligators and wading birds are near-guaranteed in the cooler months. Bring insect repellent and go early; there is no public transport, so a car is required.
Atlantic Avenue, Delray Beach. The most walkable stretch in the area runs from the Intracoastal Waterway to the ocean, lined with restaurants, galleries and bars that stay busy on weekday evenings. Fifteen minutes north by car, it is where conference dinners tend to end up for want of a comparable option closer.
Good to know
Is a rental car necessary?
Effectively yes. South Florida outside the downtown cores is built for driving, transit between towns is limited, and the nature sites have no bus service. Ride-hailing works but adds up over several days.
Is early November still hurricane season?
The Atlantic season officially runs to 30 November, but activity drops sharply by then and direct impacts in early November are uncommon. Travel insurance covering weather disruption remains sensible.
What is the weather like?
Highs around 28°C, nights near 20°C, moderate humidity and occasional short showers. Indoor air conditioning is aggressive, so a light layer is worth carrying.
