Call for papers: 27th International Conference on Conceptual Structures (ICCS 2022)

by Robert Jäschke

*ICCS 2022: 27th International Conference on Conceptual Structures* Münster, Germany, September 12-15, 2022 Conference website: https://iccs-conference.org/ Abstract registration: March 11, 2022 Submission deadline: March 18, 2022 The International Conferences on Conceptual Structures (ICCS) focus on the formal analysis and representation of conceptual knowledge, at the crossroads of artificial intelligence, human cognition, computational linguistics, and related areas of computer science and cognitive science. The ICCS conferences evolved from a series of seven annual workshops on conceptual graphs, starting with an informal gathering hosted by John F. Sowa in 1986. Recently, graph-based knowledge representation and reasoning (KRR) paradigms are getting more and more attention. With the rise of quasi-autonomous AI, graph-based representations provide a vehicle for making machine cognition explicit to its human users. Submissions are invited on significant, original, and previously unpublished research on the formal analysis and representation of conceptual knowledge in artificial intelligence (AI). All papers will receive mindful and rigorous reviews that will provide authors with useful critical feedback. The aim of the ICCS 2022 conference is to build upon its long-standing expertise in graph-based KRR and focus on providing modelling, formal and application results of graph-based systems. The conference welcomes contributions that address graph-based representation and reasoning paradigms (e.g. Bayesian Networks (BNs), Semantic Networks (SNs), RDF(S), Conceptual Graphs (CGs), Formal Concept Analysis (FCA), CP-Nets, GAI-Nets, Graph Databases, Diagrams, Knowledge Graphs, Semantic Web, etc.) from a modelling, theoretical and application viewpoint. *Topics* Topics include but are not limited to: - Existential and Conceptual Graphs - Graph-based models for human reasoning - Social network analysis - Formal Concept Analysis - Conceptual knowledge acquisition - Data and Text mining - Human and machine reasoning under inconsistency - Human and machine knowledge representation and uncertainty - Automated decision-making and argumentation - Preferences - Contextual logic - Ontologies - Knowledge architecture and management - Semantic Web, Web of Data, Web 2.0 - Conceptual structures in natural language processing and linguistics - Metaphoric, cultural or semiotic considerations - Constraint satisfaction - Resource allocation and agreement technologies - Philosophical, neural, and didactic investigations of conceptual, graphical representations *Submission Information* We invite scientific papers of up to fourteen pages, short contributions up to eight pages. Papers must be formatted according to Springer’s LNCS style guidelines and not exceed the page limit. Papers will be subject to double-blind peer review, in which the reviewers do not know the author’s identity, and the submission should be done via EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iccs20220). All paper submissions will be refereed and authors will have the opportunity to respond to reviewers’ comments during the rebuttal phase. Accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings, published by Springer in the LNCS/LNAI series. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference and present the paper there. Proceedings will be submitted for indexation by DBLP. *Review Process* Papers will be subject to double blind peer review in which the reviewers do not know the author’s identity. In order to make blind reviewing possible, authors must omit their names and affiliations from the paper. Also, while the references should not include unpublished work. When referring to one’s own work, use the third person rather than the first person. Such identifying information can be added back to the final camera-ready version of accepted papers. Similarly, reviewers should not reveal their identities within the paper reviews. The review process will include the opportunity for authors to see the reviews of their papers and to respond to technical questions raised by the reviewers before discussion starts within the Program Committee. The decision of the Program Committee will be final and cannot be appealed. *Program Committee (tentative)* - Adil Kabbaj – INSEA - Amedeo Napoli – LORIA Nancy (CNRS – Inria – Université de Lorraine) France - Bernd Amann – Sorbonne Université – LIP6 - Catherine Faron Zucker – Université Nice Sophia Antipolis - Christian Sacarea – Babes-Bolyai University Cluj-Napoca - Dan Corbett – Optimodal Technologies, LLC - Diana Cristea – Babes-Bolyai University Cluj-Napoca - Diana Sotropa – Babes-Bolyai University Cluj-Napoca - Dmitry Ignatov – National Research University Higher School of Economics - Dominik Endres – University of Marburg - Eric Salvat – IMERIR - Fatiha Saïs – LRI ( Paris Sud University &CNRS8623), Paris Saclay University - Florent Domenach – Akita International University - Gerd Stumme – University of Kassel - Guoqiang Zhang – UTHealth - Hamamache Kheddouci – Universit Claude Bernard - Harry Delugach – University of Alabama in Huntsville - Heather D.

ACIIDS 2022: Reminder

by jbaixer

(with apologies for cross postings) Please consider to contribute to and/or forward to the appropriate groups. ======== REMINDER ======== ======================================================= The deadline for paper submissions is 31 DECEMBER 2021. ======================================================= ======================================================= CDUD 2022 Special Session on Concept Discovery in Unstructured Data at the 14th Asian Conference on Intelligent Information and Database Systems (ACIIDS 2022) Almaty, Kazakhstan, June 6-9, 2022 Conference website: http://www.aciids.pwr.edu.pl/ ======================================================= Objectives and topics Concept discovery is a subdomain of Knowledge Discovery (KDD) and AI that uses human-centered techniques such as Formal Concept Analysis (FCA), Topic Modeling, Visual Text Representations, Conceptual Graphs etc. for gaining insight into the underlying conceptual structure of the data. Traditional machine learning techniques are mainly focusing on structured data whereas most data available resides in unstructured, often textual, form. Compared to traditional data mining techniques, human-centered instruments actively engage the domain expert in the discovery process. This special session welcomes papers describing innovative research on data discovery techniques. Moreover, this workshop intends to provide a forum for researchers and developers of data mining instruments, working on issues associated with analyzing unstructured data. First, we are interested in methods for transforming unstructured into semi-structured information. Unstructured information such as texts or images can be tagged, keywords can be extracted from texts by means of Natural Language Processing methods, etc. For example, recently so-called Learning Representations such as Text Vectors or Visual Words have gained much attention in the domain of unstructured data. Second, in this workshop we also particularly welcome research on using human-centered instruments such as FCA to analyze unstructured and semi-structured data. Applications in which we are interested include but are not limited to Text Mining and Web Mining including forums, blogs, social sharing systems like Twitter and Facebook, mining sociological interviews, etc. We are also interested in innovative instruments for dealing with interpretability, fairness, transparency, knowledge incompleteness and asymmetry. CDUD 2022 is the fourth edition of the three preceding workshops: CDUD 2016 (Moscow, Russia, 2016; website: https://cla2016.hse.ru/cdud; Proceedings: http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-1625/), CDUD 2012 (Leuven, Belgium, 2012; Proceedings: http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-871/), and CDUD 2011 (Moscow, Russia, 2011; Proceedings: http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-757/). The scope of the CDUD 2022 includes (but not limited) the following topics: - Applications of FCA for discovery purposes - Association Rules and Frequent Closed Itemsets - Biclustering and Multimodal clustering - Conceptual Clustering - Dealing with knowledge incompleteness and asymmetry - Deep Learning for Text Representations - Discovery techniques for conceptual models - Explainable, fair and transparent AI - Efficient indexing and structuring algorithms - Formal Concept Analysis and Rough Sets - Graph Mining and Learning - Pattern Mining for Intelligent Transport - Knowledge discovery and representation - Natural Language Processing - Ontology Learning from text - Probabilistic concept discovery - Patterns in Big Data and No-SQL databases - Recommender Systems - Text Mining and Text Kernels - Topic Modeling - Visual Analytics Submission Details All contributions should be original and not published elsewhere or intended to be published during the review period. Authors are invited to submit their papers electronically in pdf format, through EasyChair. All the special sessions are centralized as tracks in the same conference management system as the regular papers.
