Communication Papers of the 20th Conference on Computer Science and Intelligence Systems

Dear Reader, it is our pleasure to present to you Communication Papers of the 20th Conference on Computer Science and Intelligence Systems (FedCSIS 2025), which took place on September 14-17, 2025, in Kraków, Poland.

In the context of the FedCSIS conference series, the communication papers were introduced in 2017, as a separate category of contributions. They report on research topics worthy of immediate communication. They may be used to mark a new research territory, or to describe work in progress, in order to quickly present it to the scientific community. They may also contain additional information, omitted from the earlier papers, or may present software tools and products in a research state.

FedCSIS 2025 was chaired by Jarosław Wąs. Moreover, Tomasz Hachaj was the Chair, while Marian Bubak, Marek Grzegorowski and Łukasz Rauch, were the Co-Chairs of the Organizing Committee.

This year, FedCSIS was organized by the Polish Information Processing Society (Mazovia Chapter), IEEE Poland Section Computer Society Chapter, Systems Research Institute of Polish Academy of Sciences, The Faculty of Mathematics and Information Science Warsaw University of Technology, The Faculty of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the Rzeszów University of Technology and The Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Automatics, Computer Science and Biomedical Engineering AGH in cooperation with The Faculty of Metals Engineering and Industrial Computer Science AGH, The Faculty of Materials Science and Ceramics AGH, and Centre for Computational Personalised Medicine SANO.

FedCSIS 2025 was technically co-sponsored by IEEE Poland Section, IEEE Poland Section Computer Society (Gdańsk) Chapter, IEEE Czechoslovakia Section Computer Society Chapter, IEEE Poland Section Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society Chapter, IEEE Serbia and Montenegro Section Computational Intelligence Society Chapter, IEEE Serbia and Montenegro Section Young Professionals Affinity Group, Committee of Computer Science of the Polish Academy of Sciences and Mazovia Cluster ICT.

FedCSIS 2025 was organized in collaboration with the Strategic Partner QED Software, and sponsored by Intel+Lenovo, Jupiter as well as MDPI Electronics, MDPI Applied Sciences and MDPI AI journals. Moreover, FedCSIS 2025 has been conducted under Honorary Patronages of Professor Jerzy Lis, Rector of the AGH University of Kraków and of Aleksander Miszalski, Mayor of Krakow, as well as under patronages of the Ministry of Digital Affairs of the Republic of Poland, Polish Artificial Intelligence Society (PSSI), Forum Akademickie and Naukowe Towarzystwo Informatyki Ekonomicznej. Finally, media patronage was provided by Krakow.pl, TVP Info, TVP3 Kraków, and Kraków Convetion Bureau.

During FedCSIS 2025 four keynote speakers delivered lectures providing a broader context for the conference participants. These presentations were:

• Damaševičius, Robertas, Kaunas University of Technology, Lithuania: “AI-Driven Innovations in Brain Cancer Research”
• Dustdar, Schahram, TU Wien, Austria: “Active Inference for Distributed Intelligence in the Computing Continuum”
• Jonker, Catholijn, TU Delft (main affiliation), Leiden University, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Netherlands: “Hybrid Human-AI Intelligence to Strengthen the Reflective and Learning Capacity of Organisations”
• Plank, Barbara, LMU Munich, Germany: “Human-centered LLMs for Inclusive Language Technology”

Moreover, four past FedCSIS keynote speakers have been invited to prepare special contributions, which refer to the core focus of the conference series. These were:

• Atiquzzaman, Mohammed, University of Oklahoma, USA:“Q-ID: A Reinforcement Learning Framework for Adaptive Intrusion Detection”
• Blum, Christian, Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, Spain:“Optimizing the Optimizer: An Example Showing the Power of LLM Code Generation”
• Luković, Ivan, University of Belgrade, Serbia:“New Education Challenges in Profiling Digital Experts for a Digital Economy Era”
• Skowron, Andrzej, Systems Research Institute Polish Academy of Sciences, Poland:“Interactive Granular Computing: Toward Computing Model for Complex Intelligent Systems ”

At the time, when you are reading this text, videos of the keynote presentations and of invited contributions, delivered during the FedCSIS 2025 conference, are already available on the official conference website (www.fedcsis.org). We warmly encourage you to visit the website and watch these recordings to gain additional insights and perspectives shared by distinguished speakers.

Finally, as a part of official Conference Opening, a special presentation, entitled: Paths to Zero Emission Computing -- Reducing Energy Consumption, and carbon emissions in HPC and AI environments, was delivered by Tikiri Wanduragala, Technology Leader Lenovo Infrastructure Solutions Group (ISG), Lenovo UK and Ireland. An extended abstract, outlining main pints of this presentation can be found in the Position papers of FedCSIS 2025 volume, published in the Annals of Computer Science and Information Systems book series.

FedCSIS 2025 consisted of Main Track, with five Topical Areas, and 12 Thematic Sessions. Some of Thematic Sessions have been associated with the FedCSIS conference series for many years, while some of them were relatively new. The role of the Thematic Sessions is to focus and enrich discussions on selected areas, pertinent to the general scope of the conference, i.e. intelligence systems.

Each contribution, found in this volume, was refereed by at least two referees. They are presented in alphabetic order, according to the last name of the first author. The specific Topical Area or Thematic Session that given contribution was associated with is listed in the article metadata.

The delivery of FedCSIS 2025 required a dedicated effort of many people. We would like to express our warmest gratitude to all Topical Area Curators, Thematic Session organizers, members of the FedCSIS 2025 Senior Program Committee and members of the FedCSIS 2025 Program Committee (a total of more than 600 individuals), for their hard work in attracting and reviewing all submissions. We thank the authors of papers for their great contribution to the theory and practice of Computer Science and Intelligence Systems. We are grateful to Keynote and Invited Speakers for sharing their knowledge and experiences with the participants. Last, but not least, we acknowledge, one more time, Jarosław Wąs, Tomasz Hahaj, Łukasz Rauch, Anna Smyk, Anna Stolarczyk Piotrowska, Marian Bubak and Marek Grzegorowski, and their Team, Anastasiya Danilenka and Paweł Szmeja, as well as a fantastic group of student helpers. We are very grateful for your efforts!

We also hope to meet you again for the 21st Conference on Computer Science and Intelligence Systems (FedCSIS 2026) which will take place in Riga, Latvia, on August 23-26, 2026.
