IEEE AITest 2026 - International Conference on Artificial Intelligence Testing (Fukuoka)

IEEE AITest 2026 is the eighth edition of the IEEE International Conference on Artificial Intelligence Testing, convening in Fukuoka, Japan, from 27 to 30 July 2026 as part of the IEEE CISOSE 2026 congress. The conference sits at the intersection of two questions that have become urgent as AI moves into safety-critical systems: how do we test AI applications themselves, and how can AI techniques improve software testing more broadly?

Attendees are largely researchers and practitioners working on the quality assurance of machine-learning systems. The programme spans testing and validation methods for AI used in driverless vehicles, robot-controlled warehouses, financial forecasting, security enforcement, and AI integrated with cloud, edge, IoT and smart-city deployments. On the reverse side, sessions explore how machine learning, data mining, knowledge representation, constraint optimisation, planning and multi-agent techniques can sharpen conventional software-testing processes. Expect peer-reviewed paper presentations, workshops and proposal tracks rather than a vendor expo.

For anyone building reliable AI - test engineers, ML researchers, and quality-assurance leads - this is a focused, technical venue where the emphasis is on demonstrable confidence in deployed AI rather than on hype. Being co-located with the wider CISOSE congress (covering service-oriented and cyber-physical systems engineering) means the audience can move between adjacent communities across the four days.
