Call for Papers: KODIS'23, the Workshop on Knowledge Diversity, collocated with KR'23

by Lucia Gomez Alvarez

KoDis: Workshop on Knowledge Diversity ================================== Co-located with the 20th International Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR 2023), September 2-8, 2023 Rhodes, Greece https://kodis23.wordpress.com == IMPORTANT DATES == Workshop paper submission deadline: May 31, 2023 (AOE) Workshop paper notification: July 4, 2023 (AOE) Workshop dates: September 2-4, 2023 == AIMS AND SCOPE == KoDis intends to create a space of confluence and a forum for discussion for researchers interested in knowledge diversity in a wide sense, including diversity in terms of diverging perspectives, different beliefs, semantic heterogeneity and others. The importance of understanding and handling the different forms of diversity that manifest between knowledge formalisations (ontologies, knowledge bases, or knowledge graphs) is widely recognised and has led to the proposal of a variety of systems of representation, tackling overlapping aspects of this phenomenon. Besides understanding the phenomenon and considering formal models for the representation of knowledge diversity, we are interested in the variety of reasoning problems that emerge in this context, including reasoning with possibly conflicting sources, interpreting knowledge from alternative viewpoints, consolidating the diversity as uncertainty, reasoning by means of argumentation between the sources and pursuing knowledge aggregations among others. The following is a non-exhaustive list of topics of interest. - Philosophical and cognitive analysis of knowledge diversity. - Formal models for the representation of knowledge diversity. - Ontological approaches capturing multiple perspectives and viewpoints. - Context and concept formation in such systems. - Consistency (or not) in multi-perspective systems; assessment and mitigation of inconsistencies. - Communication between knowledge-diverse systems. - Argumentation-based approaches for dealing with inconsistency - Aggregation of diverse or inconsistent knowledge; judgement aggregation. - Uncertainty in the context of knowledge diversity. - Applications of formal models of knowledge diversity. == SUBMISSIONS == We encourage three types of contributions: - Full research papers: Submitted papers must not exceed 14 pages excluding the bibliography, and must include an abstract of no more than 300 words. Please, note that the minimum length is 10 pages. - Short papers: Submitted papers must not exceed 6 pages excluding the bibliography, and must include an abstract of no more than 300 words. Please, note that the minimum length is 5 pages (including the bibliography). - Extended abstracts (presentation only): should be 2-4 pages long including the bibliography. Please, note that extended abstracts will not be included in the CEUR proceedings.

The ICCS conferences evolved from 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 have been getting more and more attention. With the rise of quasi-autonomous AI, graph-based representations provide a vehicle for making machine cognition explicit to human users. ICCS 2023 will take place in Berlin, Germany, in September 2023. Scholars, students and industry participants from different disciplines will meet for several weeks of conferences, workshops, summer schools, and public events to engage with the broad topics, issues and challenges related to knowledge in the 21st century. 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 2023 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. In particular, 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 Argumentation Constraint satisfaction Preferences Contextual logic Ontologies Knowledge architecture and management Semantic Web, Web of Data, Web 2.0, Linked (Open) Data Conceptual structures in natural language processing and linguistics Metaphoric, cultural or semiotic considerations Resource allocation and agreement technologies Philosophical, neural, and didactic investigations of conceptual, graphical representations ******************** Important Dates: ******************** - Abstract registration deadline: March 19th, 2023 - Submission deadline: March 26th, 2023 - Paper Reviews Sent to Authors: May 14th, 2023 - Rebuttals Due: May 21th, 2023 - Notification to authors: May 31th, 2023 - Camera-ready papers due: June 14th, 2023 ******************** Submission Details: ******************** We invite scientific papers of up to fourteen pages, short contributions of up to eight pages, and extended poster abstracts of up to three pages.

We specifically encourage innovative formats for workshops that go beyond traditional paper presentations, for example, including a challenge for participants to solve, or jointly working on a specific problem or document at the venue. Combinations of half-day tutorial and workshop are also possible, thus providing the option to introduce a topic and then to discuss relevant research. ICCS 2023 will be an on-site conference, thus all contributors are required to present their work locally in Berlin. *************** Important Dates *************** - Proposal deadline: May 5, 2023 - Notification of acceptance: May 12, 2023 - Tutorial/Workshop day: September 11, 2023 *************************** Proposal/Submission Details *************************** Proposals for workshops/tutorials should (at least) provide the following information: - A brief description of * the specific issues that will be addressed, * the reasons why the workshop/tutorial is of relevance, * the main research areas involved, * and what the workshop/tutorial will add to the conference (e.g., do you expect papers of a theme that would not fit the main conference?). - Specifically for workshops, * information on the workshop chairs and the expected program committee, * a draft of the Call for Papers, including information on accepted formats (e.g., regular papers, extended abstracts, oral-only presentations of relevant recently published or submitted contributions, etc.) * and the expected format of the workshop (e.g., invited talks, presentations, poster sessions, panel discussions, challenge sessions, or other ideas for ensuring an interactive atmosphere). - Specifically for tutorials, please add some details on the person(s) who gives the tutorial and the expected length. - In the case of a combined tutorial-workshop, please clearly indicate the format. - Any special requirements regarding logistics (e.g., poster stands, audio equipment), if applicable. Please send your applications or questions to Robert Jäschke (contact(a)iccs-conference.org). We are looking forward to your proposals. *****************************************

[ mailto:n.mellouli@iut.univ-paris8.fr | n.mellouli(a)iut.univ-paris8.fr ] Motivation and Scope The forthcoming 5G networks are expected to bring instantaneous connectivity to billions of IoT devices that enable the digital transformation of industry 4.0 for companies, customers, and investors. It is expected that 85 percent of IoT platforms will contain some form of digital twinning by 2030, driving market growth projections from $3.1 billion today to a $48.2 billion increase in the next few years. Digital twins, which are virtual representations of real-world physical entities, have received significant interest from both the research and industrial communities. The concept is used nowadays in various domains such as manufacturing, healthcare, smart cities, smart agriculture, telecommunication, and utilities to deliver the automation, performance, and cognitive insight required by many industries. Typically, virtual twin systems are generated and then synchronized using data flows in both directions between the real-world physical components and their virtual replica counterparts. Furthermore, a digital twin can enable continuous prototyping and testing on-demand, without interruption, assuring and self-optimizing the forthcoming 5G network and beyond. It creates virtual replicas of IoT devices in various application scenarios and maintains a device twin for every connected device. The main goal of this Special Issue is to address the challenges of developing digital twins in future networks and present advanced and innovative tools, techniques, and algorithms for emerging IoT applications and services. Contributions addressing both theoretical and practical applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: DT for Future Networks * DT Architecture, Protocols, Open Interfaces, and Standard for Emerging Networks * Emerging Cloud, Edge, Fog, and Embedded ML for Digital Twin * DT for Software-Defined Vehicular Networks * Middleware Technologies for Network Digital Twins * Cloud-hosted Digital Twin frameworks for IoT systems * Federated learning, TinyML, and Edge AI for Real-Time Control in DTs * Intelligent Edge, Fog and Cognitive aspects of DTs beyond 5G * 5G-Powered Digital Twin for Cellular and Mobile Network Infrastructure Monitoring * Digital Twin for Network Slicing and Admission Control in 5G and O-RAN * Digital twins for 5G and O-RAN Network Infrastructure-Sharing * AI/ML-Powered DT Virtualization for IoT Beyond 5G Networks * Digital Twins for Visualization and Mobility Management in 5G/6G Networks. * DT-aware resource allocation and task scheduling in IoT networks * DT-based efficient resource allocation in 5G/6G * DTs for Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) * Digital Twins for SD-WAN Consolidation * Digital Twin for Intent-Based Networking * DT-based Machine learning Closed-Control Loops beyond 5G networks * DT for Zero Touch Network slicing, augmentation and operations * Blockchain-based trust mechanism for Digital Twin * Traceability supported by distributed ledgers for DT emerging Networks * DT-enabled Cybersecurity and Privacy-Preserving for 5G and beyond * AI-Powered Digital Twins for Anomaly Detection and Localization * Digital Twins for Complex Systems in Big Data and Cognitive Computing DT in Emerging IoT application domains: * Smart Cities Digital Twin * DT for Robotics, UAVs, Cellular-Connected Drones, and Self-Driving Vehicles * DT in smart farming and Agri-Food Sector * DT in Smart Grids and Integrated Energy Systems * Digital Therapeutics, Digital Twin for Mixed/Augmented Reality in Healthcare * AI-Powered Models and DT for Personalized and Patient-Specific Healthcare * DT for Metaverse and utility Digitalization with AI and Augmented Reality * Application of DT in industry 3D Visualization Platforms * Application of DT in Metaverse Industrial Product's Manufacturing * Application of DT in Spinning Intelligent Factory * Application of DT in multi-dimensional intelligent manufacturing space * DT in Zero Defect Manufacturing * Recent Developments and Future Perspectives of DT in Smart Industrial Systems * DT for Smart Production and Logistics and Supply Chain * Application of the digital twin in multi-dimensional intelligent manufacturing space Important Dates * Submission portal opens: January 26, 2023 * Deadline for paper submission: June 26, 2023 * Latest acceptance deadline for all papers: August 30, 2023 Manuscript Submission Instructions The FGCS’s submission system ( [ https://www.editorialmanager.com/FGCS/default.aspx | https://www.editorialmanager.com/FGCS/default.aspx ] ) will be open for submissions to our Special Issue from January 26, 2023.
