Call for Papers RuleML+RR 2023 18th-20th September in Oslo, Norway (part of DeclarativeAI and co-located with DecisionCAMP and the 19th Reasoning Web Summer School) The RuleML+RR 2023 conference is part of the event “Declarative AI: Rules, Reasoning, Decisions, and Explanations” and is co-located with DecisionCAMP 2023 and the Reasoning Web Summer School. It features the RuleChallenge and a Doctoral Consortium as associated events. The 7th International Joint Conference on Rules and Reasoning (RuleML+RR 2023) is the leading international joint conference in the field of rule-based reasoning. One of the main goals of RuleML+RR is to build bridges between academia and industry in the area of semantic reasoning. See https://2023.declarativeai.net/events/ruleml-rr. We are looking for high-quality papers related to theoretical advances, novel technologies,and artificial intelligence applications that involve rule-based representation and reasoning.

Main conference track High-quality papers related to theoretical advances, novel technologies, and artificial intelligence applications concerning explainable algorithmic decision-making that involve rule-based representation and reasoning are solicited. We accept the following submission formats for papers: * Long papers (up to 15 pages in LNCS style including references) * Short papers (up to 8 pages in LNCS style including references) Long papers should present original and significant research and/or development results. Short papers should concisely describe general results or specific applications, systems, or position statements. All submissions must be prepared in Springer's LNCS style ( http://www.springer.com/comp/lncs/authors.html). Submissions to the RuleML+RR conference Submitted papers must not substantially overlap with papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference/workshop with formal proceedings. Double submission to a workshop with informal proceedings is allowed. Papers put on arXiv are also allowed as long as they are not refereed (i.e., formally reviewed by peers). Papers can be submitted using EasyChair https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=declarativeai2023 Publication The conference proceedings will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series (LNCS) after the conference. The best paper will be awarded the RuleML+RR Harold Boley Distinguished Paper award. A selection of the best accepted papers (2-6) of RuleML+RR 2023 will be invited for submission to the Journal of Theory and Practice of Logic Programming (TPLP). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The Doctoral Consortium The RuleML+RR Doctoral Consortium 2023 is an initiative to attract and promote student research in Artificial Intelligence, especially research on rule-based formalisms and reasoning in such formalisms. It offers students close contact with leading experts in the field, as well as the opportunity to present and discuss their ideas in a dynamic and friendly setting. The Doctoral Consortium is organized as part of Declarative AI 2023: Rules, Reasoning, Decisions, and Explanations (Oslo, 18-20 September 2023). We invite PhD students at an early or intermediate stage of their PhD studies, as well as exceptional master’s students who are interested in pursuing a PhD, to submit papers describing their research on any of the topics of RuleML+RR 2023. Papers should range between 8 and 15 pages, be written in English, and follow the CEUR-WS.org format. They are submitted electronically in PDF together with a maximum 2 page-long CV by 20 May 2023 (title and abstract) and 27 May 2023 (full paper and CV). The best paper will be awarded the RuleML+RR Best Doctoral Consortium Paper award 2023. Submissions should be done through the link https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=declarativeai2023.
