Paper Submission Guidelines
The PEAQ Summit 2027 invites original research, case studies, and field reports on the science of post-deployment AI observation: how AI systems behave once they are in the world, what grows when humans and AI collaborate, what happens to the humans in those relationships, and what emerges when AI meets AI.
Submissions are open to academics, practitioners, independent researchers, and PRISM Fellows. We accept research across the full P.E.A.Q. architecture plus cross-framework and Convergent Validation submissions. We value the work over the credential.
Full Research Papers
Original empirical or theoretical contributions to post-deployment AI observation. Submissions undergo double-blind peer review by the program committee. Accepted papers are published in the official PEAQ Summit 2027 proceedings.
Short Papers
Work-in-progress, preliminary findings, position papers, or focused contributions that do not yet warrant a full paper. Accepted short papers are presented as posters or lightning talks during the Summit.
Practitioner Reports
Case studies and applied work from people building, deploying, or operating AI systems in production. No formal academic methodology required. We want the lessons real-world deployment teaches that benchmarks cannot.
Independent Research Reports
Original research from independent investigators, journalists, and civil-society organizations.
No formal academic methodology required. No organizational affiliation required. We value the work over the format.
PRISM Fellow Field Reports
Reserved for PRISM Fellows with 500 or more verified observations. Field reports surface patterns the contributor has noticed in their own observation record.
The people closest to the data often see what the researchers miss. This track exists because of that.
Submissions should align with one or more of the six P.E.A.Q. tracks. Indicate the primary track on the title page and list any secondary tracks in your keywords.
