Policy on the Use of Generative AI Tools

Authors submitting to ICAETT 2026 must follow ethical guidelines regarding the use of AI tools in research writing.
It is not allowed to:

  • List AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT) as co-authors.
  • Submit sections written entirely by generative AI.

It is allowed, with proper acknowledgment in the paper, to:

  • Use AI tools to help generate or revise parts of the content. The acknowledgments section should clearly state what was produced and which tool was used.

Example: “ChatGPT was used to revise Section 2 and generate the initial version of Table 1.”
It is also acceptable (without the need to mention it) to:

  • Use AI tools to enhance clarity, grammar, or image quality—similar to using grammar-checking or image-editing software.

At the time of submission, authors will be required to disclose whether AI tools were used during the preparation of the manuscript. This information is requested strictly for ethical transparency, and authors should not feel discouraged from using such tools when appropriate.

Evaluation

At least three regular PC members will review each paper. The acceptance decisions will take into account paper novelty, technical depth, elegance, practical or theoretic impact, and presentation:

  • Soundness: The contributions should be supported by the rigorous application of appropriate research methods.
  • Significance: The authors are expected to argue the relevance and usefulness of their research and discuss the novelty through a comparison with related works.
  • Novelty: The contributions should be original and explained clearly and correctly concerning state-of-the-art.
  • Replicability: The contributions will take into account the extent to which sufficient information is available to support the full or partial independent replication of the claimed findings.
  • Presentation Quality: The submissions are expected to meet high standards of presentation, including the English language, avoiding ambiguities, clearly readable figures and tables, and respect of the formatting instructions.

If authors are unable to attend the conference and present their papers, they should contact the program chair so that substitute arrangement can be done, e.g., virtual presentation.
