Find a section

Choose a publication venue by the contribution and evidence your work offers. This page includes journals and relevant conferences. Scope comes first; check current author instructions, deadlines, publication charges, and institutional agreements before submission.

Choose the venue by the contribution

The same topic can produce different contributions. Choose the readers who need your finding.

Negotiation research contributes…Look for a venue that values…
Evidence about user decisions and controlHuman–AI interaction, behaviour, or interface design.
A new language-model method or evaluationNLP methods, resources, or language-model behaviour.
A general learning method with broad evidenceMachine-learning methods, theory, or substantial empirical insight.

Before selecting a venue: Find two recent papers with a contribution and evidence pattern similar to yours. Explain why their readership would need your result. Neither an AI topic nor a prestigious venue name establishes fit. A specialist journal may be the right home for a focused contribution.

Leading conferences

ACL · Natural language processingThe work advances language models, NLP methods, resources, evaluation, or understanding.
NeurIPS · Machine learning and AIThe paper offers strong technical or scientific insight with rigorous evaluation.
ICML · Machine learningThe central contribution is a machine-learning method, theory, analysis, or substantial empirical result.
