IEEE/CAA Journal of Automatica Sinica (JAS) is pleased to present the conference on AI and Cyber-Physical Systems, to be held on September 19-21, 2025 in Nanjing, China.

The conference is sponsored by the IEEE/CAA JAS and aims to provide a research venue for researchers, students, and control engineers to exchange ideas and discuss the technical trends and challenges in the area of AI and cyber-physical systems. The conference brings a two-day meeting, being organized by Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications. It is devoted to recent advances in AI-based cyber-physical system modeling, estimation, security, real-time control, optimization and their synergistic applications.

Papers must be written in English and must describe the original work. Accepted papers will be distributed as widely as possible over the fields of theory and application of AI and cyber-physical systems. Most excitingly, all accepted original papers, which must be presented or posted at the conference, will be recommended to and published in the IEEE/CAA JAS as Letter after passing peer review.

The conference also accepts the report at special sessions from the authors, where the reported topic should come from their regular papers or reviews published in IEEE/CAA JAS in 2025.

Call for Papers

This conference consists of five Special Sessions:

Special Session 1: AI-driven security control and filtering for industrial cyber-physical systems

Special Session 2: Autonomous intelligent control of unmanned systems

Special Session 3: Distributed intelligent optimization and game theory in cyber-physical systems

Special Session 4: Neural dynamics-based intelligent computing in cyber-physical systems

Special Session 5: AI-enabled estimation and control in maritime cyber-physical systems

Important Dates

Contributed papers up to 3 pages (double column with font size being 9; the template can be found at https://www.ieee-jas.net/news/Information%20for%20Authors.htm) should be submitted by August 31, 2025 via online submission and review system: https://mc03.manuscriptcentral.com/ieee-jas.

The length of accepted papers published in the IEEE/CAA JAS as Letter cannot exceed 3 pages.

The submission should be noted on the first page with “2nd Conference & Special Session M”, where “M” stands for the selected index of special sessions.
