The 18th International Conference on the Simulation of Adaptive Behavior (SAB 2026) 19 - 22 Oct 2026 in Berlin, Germany
REGISTRATION CALL FOR PAPERS
About the Conference
The objective of this interdisciplinary conference is to bring together researchers in computer science, artificial intelligence, artificial life, control, robotics, neurosciences, ethology, evolutionary biology and related fields in order to further our understanding of the behaviors and underlying mechanisms that allow natural and artificial animals to adapt and survive in uncertain environments. The conference will focus on models of adaptive behavior and its underlying mechanisms, and on experiments grounded on well-defined models including robot, computer simulation and mathematical models designed to help characterize and compare various principles or architectures underlying adaptive behavior in real animals and in synthetic agents, the “animats”.

The International Society for Adaptive Behavior (ISAB) is an organization dedicated to advancing the understanding of adaptive behavior in both biological organisms and artificial systems. It supports the International Conference on the Simulation of Adaptive Behavior series, themed "From Animals to Animats," now in its 18th edition. Science of Intelligence (SCIoI) is a Cluster of Excellence in Berlin. SCIoI's mission is to uncover the fundamental principles underlying various forms of intelligence—be it artificial, individual, or collective. By integrating insights from disciplines such as psychology, robotics, computer science, philosophy, and behavioral research, SCIoI aims to foster the development of new intelligent technologies that benefit society. The cluster emphasizes a synthetic research approach, incorporating all theories and methods into technological artifacts like robots or computer programs, serving as a common language to facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration.
