New Deadline March 5: SemWiki2008 - The Wiki Way of Semantics (Workshop@ESWC)
by Christoph LANGE 18 Feb '08

18 Feb '08

[Apologies for multiple copies] Full call for papers at http://semwiki.org/semwiki2008/ Contact: chair(a)semwiki.org ---- CALL FOR PAPERS SemWiki2008 3rd Workshop: 'The Wiki Way of Semantics' June 2, 2008 http://semwiki.org/semwiki2008 EXTENDED SUBMISSION DEADLINE: MARCH 5 co-located with the 5th Annual European Semantic Web Conference (ESWC) http://www.eswc2008.org/ Tenerife, Spain June 1-5, 2008 ---- === Executive Summary === SemWiki2008, the third workshop on Semantic Wikis, aims at reviewing the progress that has been made in the field of Semantic Wikis since the last workshops in 2006. We are interested in reviewing existing semantic wiki systems against the core wiki principles and thus identifying possibilities to improve them, in applying semantic technologies to existing wiki sites such as Wikipedia in order to make them even more productive for mass collaboration, but also in innovative, entirely new ideas for semantic wikis. Semantic Wikis try to combine the strengths of Semantic Web (machine processable, data integration, complex queries) and Wiki (easy to use and contribute, strongly interconnected, collaborativeness) technologies. Goals are diverse and include: * simple annotations of existing Wiki content; * tools that guide users from informal knowledge contained in texts to more formal structures; * full-fledged tools for ontology editing where the text is no longer in the focus of the system. Semantic Wikis contain in an integrated fashion many of the core challenges of the Semantic Web community: authoring, versioning, interlinked data, semantic browsing, semantic annotating, semantic diffs, semantic search and getting overview. In a Semantic Wiki, such methods have to be integrated into a coherent whole, while still remaining lightweight and easy to use. In this workshop, we investigate how these challenges can be tackled in an integrated fashion. === Important Dates (all dates GMT) === * Paper submission: March 5, 2008 (papers, posters, demos, position papers) * Notification of acceptance: April 4, 2008 * Camera ready deadline: April 18, 2008 * Workshop: June 2, 2008 === Call for Contributions === We invite submissions as full and short papers, as well as posters/demos. Papers should describe original, unpublished research and must not be under review by another conference, journal, or workshop. Authors of the highest quality contributions will be invited to present their work at the workshop. Since Semantic Wikis are a very practical topic, we are also very interested in poster and demo submissions. Posters and Demos should describe prototypical implementations of systems related to the workshop topics. Highest quality submissions will be presented in a separate poster/demo session. Contributions should adhere to the following formats: * Papers 5-15 pages * Posters/Demos 2-5 pages * Short/Position Papers: 2-5 pages Papers should be formatted using the standard LNCS format and should include an abstract of no more than 120 words. Authors will be required to submit their camera ready versions using SALT (semantically annotated LaTeX; http://salt.semanticauthoring.org). It allows authors to annotate their articles directly with semantic markup. This semantic markup will be used to extract and publish metadata of the submissions on the Semantic Web. A specialized LaTeX template will be provided by the workshop organisers that allows to easily add these annotations. === Proceedings === Pre-proceedings will appear at the time of the conference online and in print. Post-proceedings will be published in the CEUR-WS series. === Topics of Interest === Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Text-Based Semantic Authoring * Acquisition of Formal Knowledge from Structured Text * Wikipedia and the Semantic Web * Mining Wikipedia * extending Wikipedia with semantic web features * ... * Collaborative Authoring of Formal Knowledge * Continuous and Integrated Knowledge Usage and Refinement * Usability and empirical studies of semantic wikis and human factors * Application of semantic wikis in * E-learning * software engineering * knowledge engineering * and other domains * Semantic Wikis in Enterprises * New Ways of Authoring, Browsing and Navigating Semantically Enhanced Data * Reusing data from Semantic Wikis in other systems * Personal Semantic Wikis === Programme === * Invited talk: Corporate Knowledge Management with Semantic Wikis at SUN * Presentations of research and position papers * Poster and demo session * Joint dinner, including a discussion on standardisation of semantic wiki data formats and ontologies (building on existing work such as WSR 3; http://www.wikisym.org/wiki/index.php/WSR_3). === Organisation === The workshop is supported by EU FP7 project KIWI and EU FP6 project NEPOMUK. Workshop co-ordinators: * Christoph Lange, Jacobs University Bremen (DE) * Sebastian Schaffert, Salzburg Research (AT) * Hala Skaf-Molli, LORIA INRIA-LORRAINE/Nancy-Université (FR) * Max Völkel, FZI/Universität Karlsruhe (TH) (DE) Programme Committee: * Sören Auer, Universität Leipzig (DE) * David Aumüller, Universität Leipzig (DE) * Joachim Baumeister, Universität Würzburg (DE) * Björn Decker, IESE (DE) * Sebastian Dietzold, Universität Leipzig (DE) * Ludger van Elst, DFKI (DE) * Michael Erdmann, Ontoprise (DE) * Tudor Groza, DERI (IE) * Siegfried Handschuh, DERI (IE) * Tom Heath, Open University (UK) * Stefanie Lindstaedt, Know-Center Graz (AT) * Martin Hepp, UIBK (AT) * Malte Kiesel, DFKI (DE) * Michael Kohlhase, Jacobs University Bremen (DE) * Pascal Molli, Nancy University (FR) * Claudia Müller, Universität Potsdam (DE) * Amedeo Napoli, LORIA (FR) * Eyal Oren, VU (NL) * Viktoria Pammer, Know-Center Graz (AT) * Flavio De Paoli, University of Milano-Bicocca (IT) * Jean Rohmer, Thales (FR) * Matthias Samwald, Semantic Web Company (AT) * Peter Scheir, Know-Center Graz (AT) * Elena Simperl, DERI Innsbruck (AT) * Katharina Siorpaes Universität Innsbruck (AT) * Steffen Staab, Universität Koblenz-Landau (DE) * Jakob Voß, GBV Göttingen (DE) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Complete information, including Programme Committee, instructions for submission, description of the workshop, etc. are to be found at: http://semwiki.org/semwiki2008/ -- Christoph Lange, Jacobs Univ.

Topical Coverage of Wikipedia
by Alex Halavais 15 Feb '08

15 Feb '08

Some of you might be interested in a new article: http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1083-6101.2008.00403.x An Analysis of Topical Coverage of Wikipedia * Alexander Halavais & Derek Lackaff Abstract Many have questioned the reliability and accuracy of Wikipedia. Here a different issue, but one closely related: how broad is the coverage of Wikipedia? Differences in the interests and attention of Wikipedia's editors mean that some areas, in the traditional sciences, for example, are better covered than others. Two approaches to measuring this coverage are presented. The first maps the distribution of topics on Wikipedia to the distribution of books published. The second compares the distribution of topics in three established, field-specific academic encyclopedias to the articles found in Wikipedia. Unlike the top-down construction of traditional encyclopedias, Wikipedia's topical coverage is driven by the interests of its users, and as a result, the reliability and completeness of Wikipedia is likely to be different depending on the subject-area of the article.

Moderators?
by Jimmy Wales 15 Feb '08

For some reason I am listed as a moderator on this mailing list. I do read it, but I seldom have time to do moderation tasks. If there is another moderator, perhaps he or she could remove me from moderation? If there is no other moderator, perhaps we need one?

[Second call for papers] Wikipedia and AI: An Evolving Synergy
by Evgeniy Gabrilovich 05 Feb '08

05 Feb '08

AAAI 2008 Workshop WIKIPEDIA AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: AN EVOLVING SYNERGY http://lit.csci.unt.edu/~wikiai08 CALL FOR PAPERS OVERVIEW Since its inception less than seven years ago, Wikipedia has become one of the largest and fastest growing online sources of encyclopedic knowledge. One of the reasons why Wikipedia is appealing to contributors and users alike is the richness of its embedded structural information: articles are hyperlinked to each other and connected to categories from an ever expanding taxonomy; pervasive language phenomena such as synonymy and polysemy are addressed through redirection and disambiguation pages; entities of the same type are described in a consistent format using infoboxes; related articles are grouped together in series templates. As a large-scale repository of structured knowledge, Wikipedia has become a valuable resource for a diverse set of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications. Major conferences in natural language processing and machine learning have recently witnessed a significant number of approaches that use Wikipedia for tasks ranging from text categorization and clustering to word sense disambiguation, information retrieval, information extraction and question answering. On the other hand, Wikipedia can greatly benefit from numerous algorithms and representation models developed during decades of AI research, as illustrated recently in tasks such as estimating the reliability of authors' contributions, automatic linking of articles, or intelligent matching of Wikipedia tasks with potential contributors. The goal of the workshop is to foster the research and dissemination of ideas on the mutually beneficial interaction between Wikipedia and AI. The workshop is intended to be highly interdisciplinary. We encourage participation of researchers working on Wikipedia from different perspectives, including (but not limited to) machine learning, computational linguistics, information retrieval, information extraction, question answering, knowledge representation, and others. We also encourage participation of researchers from other areas who might benefit from the use of a large body of machine-readable knowledge. TOPICS We invite submissions of papers addressing the following or related topics:: - Using Wikipedia as a source of training data for AI tasks (both supervised an unsupervised) - Automatic methods for improving the quality of Wikipedia pages - Integrating Wikipedia with existing ontologies (e.g. WordNet, CYC, ODP) - Extracting annotated data from Wikipedia - Enriching Wikipedia with new types of structural information - Wikipedia and the Semantic Web / Web 2.0 - Automatic extraction and use of cross-lingual information from Wikipedia - Computerized use of satellite projects such as Wiktionary, Wikibooks or Wikispecies WORKSHOP FORMAT The day long workshop will consist of presentations, demos showcasing work presented in the research papers, and a panel session. The workshop will also feature an invited talk by Dr. Michael Witbrock, Vice President of Research at Cycorp, where he works on the Cyc project. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES We invite submissions of regular full papers (up to 6 pages), short papers reporting on late- breaking results (up to 3 pages), and descriptions of system demonstrations (up to 1 page) using the AAAI style. Submissions that have been accepted for publication elsewhere or are under review for another conference must clearly state so on the front page of the paper. IMPORTANT DATES Deadline for long papers submission March 21, 2008 Deadline for short papers and system demos April 7, 2008 Notification of acceptance April 21, 2008 Camera-ready papers due at AAAI May 5, 2008 ORGANIZING COMMITTEE Razvan Bunescu, Ohio University (bunescu(a)ohio.edu) Evgeniy Gabrilovich, Yahoo!
