Special Session

Human-centric Adaptive Computational Intelligence for Business Applications

IEEE International Conference on Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems 2026

September 21-23, 2026 | Pisa, Italy

This special session seeks to foster interdisciplinary research and to specifically address the integration of human-centric adaptive computational intelligence (CI) into business processes and decision-making. Dynamic business environments require adaptive systems that can evolve over time while remaining grounded in human logic (reasoning). Such systems should facilitate human participation and extraction of knowledge in an explainable and understandable manner. Emerging computational intelligence approaches should allow interactive machine learning in a collaboration with users able to interact with their data by logic aggregation requirements expressed linguistically.

The main goal is to investigate how human-centric CI techniques can be leveraged to ensure more transparent and reliable CI systems. We invite contributions that explore how these techniques can serve as the driver for adaptivity, allow users to steer the evolution of the model through linguistic requirements and qualitative feedback, adapt their parameters and learn from data, include interpretable and explainable models, complement automated business processes, ensure the resulting AI agents are trustworthy and aligned with expert knowledge, etc.

Topics of interest

Main topics of interest include but are not limited to:

  • Adaptive decision-making support: Fuzzy logic approaches, importance weighting and linguistically summarizing and interpreting data
  • Advanced logic-based aggregation: Human-centric logic aggregation, Logic Scoring of Preference (LSP), Logical Aggregation (LA) based on Interpolative Boolean Algebra (IBA), ordinal sums, and other approaches.
  • Adaptive CI Architectures: Adaptive and explainable fuzzy and neuro-fuzzy systems; self-organizing and adaptive neural networks
  • Human-centric approaches within ML algorithms

While these topics are broadly applicable, we primarily focus on CI-driven decision support within business, public institutions, critical systems, and smart cities.
This special session offers a forum for sharing innovative research efforts regarding theoretical CI advancements, technological challenges and applying these methods to real-world problems.

Paper submission

Submitted papers should not exceed 8 pages plus at most 2 pages over-length.

EAIS2026 proceedings will be published on IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit extended versions for possible inclusion in a special issue of Evolving Systems – An Interdisciplinary Journal for Advanced Science and Technology (Springer).
