PRICAI 2026 Workshop

Operational AI for Climate and Coastal Hazards, and Public Safety

Nov 17–20, 2026 Guangzhou, China Co-located with PRICAI 2026
Call for Papers is open.  Submission deadline: 30 June 2026.
About the Workshop

Scope & Motivation

This workshop highlights the gap between AI research and operational end-to-end systems for coastal policy and public safety through real-world case studies and applications. It focuses on trustworthy and multimodal AI for climate and ocean risk, coastal hazards, and public safety, with an emphasis on beach hazard detection, early warning systems, and short-term risk forecasting.

The workshop addresses challenges associated with modern coastal and ocean datasets, which are heterogeneous, multi-source, and temporally irregular, including shoreline imagery, oceanographic grids, and environmental observations. Topics include deep learning, generative AI, and spatio-temporal methods for hazard detection, short-term and long-term forecasting, and the design of deployable end-to-end coastal safety systems.
