The 2026 22th International Conference on Natural Computation, Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery (ICNC-FSKD 2026) will be held from 25-27 July 2026 in Taiyuan, China. Taiyuan, the capital city of Shanxi Province, is a historic yet rapidly developing metropolis in northern China. With a history spanning more than 2,500 years, Taiyuan offers a distinctive blend of ancient heritage and modern urban infrastructure, making it an attractive host city for international academic exchange. One of the city’s most recognizable landmarks is the Twin Pagoda Temple (Yongzuo Temple), a symbol of Taiyuan’s historical depth and architectural legacy. Beyond the city itself, Shanxi Province is renowned for its rich cultural heritage and is home to three UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Yungang Grottoes, celebrated for their monumental 5th-century Buddhist cave art; Mount Wutai, one of the Four Sacred Buddhist Mountains of China; and the Ancient City of Pingyao, a remarkably well-preserved example of a traditional Han Chinese city.
