Submission

Important note: Starting from UMAP 2026, workshop papers are NOT published in the ACM proceedings. All workshop papers will be published in a single CEUR-WS proceedings volume, prepared jointly by the Proceedings Chairs and the workshop organizers.

Submission

Page limits:

• Regular papers: 10 or more standard pages, including references;
• Short papers: 5–9 standard pages, including references;
• Poster papers: less than 5 standard pages, including references. Poster papers must be handled as abstracts, following the CEUR guidelines: https://ceur-ws.org/HOWTOSUBMIT.html#PUBLISH-RULES

Papers that exceed the page limits or formatting guidelines will be returned without review.

Submissions should be single blinded, i.e. authors names should be included in the submissions.

CEUR Templates and Formatting.

• All papers must use the CEUR-WS template in one-column format.
• Official templates:
  • Offline version: http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip
  • Overleaf version: https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/template-for-submissions-to-ceur-workshop-proceedings-ceur-ws-dot-org/wqyfdgftmcfw
• LaTeX is strongly preferred.
• If LaTeX is not used, authors must strictly follow the ODT template instructions:
  • The ODT template is provided within the CEURART package.
  • Microsoft Word must not be used for the ODT template.
  • The Libertinus font family is mandatory; installation instructions are included in the template.
• Papers that do not comply with these requirements will not be suitable for publication in CEUR-WS.
• Declaration of Generative AI: each paper must include a mandatory Declaration of Generative AI, in accordance with https://ceur-ws.org/GenAI/Policy.html

NB: Accepted papers will require a further revision in order to meet the requirements and page limits of the camera-ready format required by CEUR-WS. Instructions for the preparation of the camera-ready versions of the papers will be provided after acceptance. 

Submission System.

All papers should be submitted in PDF format via the online submission system: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=patch2026.

An international panel of experts will review all submissions.

Work that has already been published should not be submitted unless it introduces a significant addition to the previously published work.
