COMMA 2026

Overview

The 11th International Conference on Computational Models of Argument will be held 18–20 September 2026 (preceded by workshops and a summer school) in Barcelona, Spain. We cordially invite submissions and participants to this conference!

The aim of the COMMA conference is to bring together researchers interested in computational models of argument and the representation of argumentation structures in natural language texts, including the problem of automatically discovering argumentation in text or speech.

In addition to the main conference track, there will be thematically-focused workshops, system demonstrations, and a summer school with courses on current topics of argumentation.
