The International Conference for Artificial Life (ALife) will be held at IT University of Copenhagen, July 22-26, 2024.
The theme of this year is Exploring new frontiers: Building on the ancient traditions of the Vikings to travel to new and strange lands and discover new cultures and traditions, we want to dedicate ALIFE 2024 to the weird and wacky of ALIFE. In particular in a time where academic research is under pressure to be more applied, we will instead dedicate ALIFE 2024 to celebrate the fundamental science of artificial life.
Submission Guidelines
There are two options for submission: full paper or extended abstract. The format is exactly the same for both options. The difference resides in the number of pages and type of contents:
- full papers have an 8-page maximum length (not including references) and should report on new, unpublished work;
- extended abstracts are limited to a 2-page length (not including references) and can report on previously published work or preliminary results.
Please see the author guidelines on the conference website for detailed instructions and manuscript templates.
All submissions will undergo a detailed peer review process. Full papers will be reviewed for timeliness, novelty, scientific quality, sound methodology, and use of appropriate analysis techniques. Extended abstracts will be reviewed for timeliness, novelty, and quality.
Accepted submissions will be considered for oral or poster presentation, without distinction between full papers and extended abstracts.
Accepted submissions (both full papers and extended abstracts) will be published by MIT Press as open-access electronic proceedings.
List of Topics
ALIFE 2024 will showcase a wide range of topics in Artificial Life, bringing together world-leading researchers to discuss the latest advances in the synthesis and simulation of living systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following aspects of Artificial Life:
- Complex dynamical systems and networks
- Artificial chemistry, origins of life, computational biology
- Synthetic biology, protocells, and wet artificial life
- Ecology and evolution
- Bio-inspired, cognitive and evolutionary robotics, swarms
- Artificial intelligence and machine learning
- Perception, cognition, behavior
- Social systems, artificial and alternative societies
- Evolution of language, computational linguistics
- Artificial Life-based art
- Artificial Life in education
