CALL FOR PAPERS

KST International Conference (KST)

  • has been established with the aim in mind that a sustainable community will be achieved through continuous studies and share resources. It provides a central forum for experts and developers to promote, share, and discuss various issues and developments in the broad field of Computational Intelligence, Intelligent Computer Networks and Systems, and Emerging Intelligent Technologies. KST-2026 is the 18th annual International conference. It will provide an opportunity for young researchers to demonstrate their talent and interesting research ideas. The conference will benefit people who are actively involved in research related to computational intelligence and its applications in Thailand. Accepted papers will be published in the KST-2026 Conference Proceedings.

For your Information :

    The International Conference on Knowledge and Smart Technology (KST) is organized by the IEEE Thailand Section (Computer Chapter) and Knowledge and Smart Technology Research Lab (KST), Faculty of Informatics, Burapha University. It's hosted by the IEEE Thailand Section (Computer Chapter) and the Faculty of Informatics, Burapha University, Thailand

Please note :

    - Selected papers will be proposed for further extension before publishing in ECTI-Transactions on Computer and Information Technology (ECTI-CIT), indexed by SCOPUS, TCI, and ACI. The length of manuscript should be between 8 and 12 pages.
    - To be eligible for publication in IEEEXplore, an author of a paper is required to present his/her paper in PERSON. IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference (i.e. removal from IEEE Xplore), if the paper is not presented at the conference. Online presentation can be accepted only for the emergency issues.
