FCR-2023: 9th Workshop on Formal and Cognitive Reasoning -- Final Call for Papers + Deadline Extension
by Kai Sauerwald 10 Jul '23

10 Jul '23

* Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this call * ================================================================== =========== Final Call for Papers (Deadline Extended) ============ 9th Workshop on Formal and Cognitive Reasoning (FCR-2023) https://www.fernuni-hagen.de/wbs/fcr2023.html Location: Berlin, Germany Deadline: July 21, 2023 Workshop: September 26, 2023 Co-located with the 46th German Conference on Artificial Intelligence (KI 2023) ======================================== Aims and Scope -------------- In real-life AI applications, information is usually pervaded by uncertainty and subject to change, and thus requires non-classical systems. At the same time, psychological findings indicate that human reasoning cannot be completely described by classical logical systems. Sources of explanations are incomplete knowledge, incorrect beliefs, or inconsistencies. A wide range of reasoning mechanisms has to be considered, such as analogical or defeasible reasoning, possibly in combination with machine learning methods. The field of knowledge representation and reasoning offers a rich palette of methods for uncertain reasoning both to describe human reasoning and to model AI approaches. The aim of this series of workshops is to address recent challenges and to present novel approaches to uncertain reasoning and belief change in their broad senses, and in particular provide a forum for research work linking different paradigms of reasoning. A special focus is on papers that provide a base for connecting formal-logical models of knowledge representation and cognitive models of reasoning and learning, addressing formal and experimental or heuristic issues. Previous events of the Workshop on "Formal and Cognitive Reasoning" and joint workshops took place in Dresden (2015), Bremen (2016), Dortmund (2017), Berlin (2018), Kassel (2019), Bamberg (2020, online), Berlin (2021, online), and Trier (2022, online). We welcome papers on the following and any related topics: Action and change Agents and multiagent systems Analogical reasoning Argumentation theories Belief change and belief merging Cognitive modeling and empirical data Common sense and defeasible reasoning Computational thinking Decision theory and preferences Inductive reasoning and cognition Knowledge representation in theory and practice Learning and knowledge discovery in data Nonmonotonic and uncertain reasoning Ontologies and description logics Probabilistic approaches of reasoning Syllogistic reasoning Keynote Speaker --------------- Ulrich Furbach University of Koblenz Gabriele Kern-Isberner TU Dortmund University Publication ----------- The proceedings will be published in the CEUR Workshop proceedings series. Workshop Organizers and Co-Chairs --------------------------------- Christoph Beierle FernUniversität in Hagen, Germany Kai Sauerwald FernUniversität in Hagen, Germany François Schwarzentruber University of Rennes, CNRS, IRISA, France Frieder Stolzenburg Hochschule Harz, Germany Program Committee ----------------- Theofanis Aravanis University of Patras, Greece Laura Giordano Università del Piemonte Orientale, Italy Jesse Heyninck Open Universiteit Heerlen, the Netherlands Haythem O.

Partnership Proposal: UNESCO WHV "Ahmedabad: From the lenses of Built Heritage"
by Khushi Shah 29 Jun '23

29 Jun '23

Hello Wikimedians! I am Khushi Shah, the director of Khushtar Heritage Collective. As per our conversation, I am sending the details of the World Heritage Volunteer program that I am hosting in Ahmedabad, India, from August 1st to August 10th, 2023. *The World Heritage Volunteers (WHV) Initiative, launched in 2008 in partnership with the Coordinating Committee for International Voluntary Service (CCIVS), aims to engage and mobilize young individuals and youth organizations in the preservation and promotion of World Heritage sites. Presently, the initiative is jointly coordinated by the UNESCO World Heritage Centre and Better World.* Our 10-day workshop, titled *"Ahmedabad: From the lenses of built heritage,"* will focus on interactive learning activities that delve into the concepts of heritage, the significance of heritage and culture in society, and the technical aspects of conserving historical properties. For the same, I was wondering if any of the Wikimedia Research team would like to collaborate with us. The collaboration can benefit both of us while also engaging more youth in heritage and culture. Would you be interested in talking further about a possible collaboration? I have attached a brochure of a tentative list of activities planned during the workshop. I would love to hear your thoughts. Best regards.

Wikimedia Research Showcase June 21 at 16:30 UTC
by Pablo Aragón 21 Jun '23

21 Jun '23

Hi all, The next Research Showcase, with the theme of *Wikimedia and LGBTQIA+*, will be live-streamed Wednesday, June 21 at 16:30 UTC. Find your local time here <https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1687365012>. YouTube stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOD2ZdxRNfo You can join the conversation on IRC at #wikimedia-research or on the YouTube chat. This month's presentations: - *Multilingual Contextual Affective Analysis of LGBT People Portrayals in Wikipedia* - *Speaker*: Chan Park, Carnegie Mellon University - *Abstract*: In this talk, I present our research on analyzing the portrayal of LGBT individuals in their biographies on Wikipedia, with a particular focus on subtle word connotations and cross-cultural comparisons. We aim to address two primary research questions: 1) How can we effectively measure the nuanced connotations of words in multilingual texts, which reflect sentiments, power dynamics, and agency? 2) How can we analyze the portrayal of a specific group, such as the LGBT community, and compare these portrayals across different languages? To answer these questions, we collect the Multilingual Contextualized Connotation Frames dataset, comprising 2,700 examples in English, Spanish, and Russian. We also develop a new multilingual model based on pre-trained multilingual language models. Additionally, we devise a matching algorithm to construct a comparison corpus for the target corpus, isolating the attribute of interest. Finally, we showcase how our developed models and constructed corpora enable us to conduct cross-cultural analysis of LGBT People Portrayals on Wikipedia. Our results reveal systematic differences in how the LGBT community is portrayed across languages, surfacing cultural differences in narratives and signs of social biases. - *Paperː* Park, C.

The project is studying gender diversity in Wikidata, focusing on marginalized gender identities such as those of trans and non-binary people, and adopting a queer and intersectional feminist perspective. The project is organised in three strands — model, data, and community. First, we are looking at how the current Wikidata ontology model represents gender, and the extent to which this representation is inclusive of marginalized gender identities. We are analysing the data stored in the knowledge base to gather insights and identify possible gaps and biases. Finally, we are looking at how the community has handled the move towards the inclusion of a wider spectrum of gender identities by studying a corpus of user discussions through computational linguistics methods. This presentation will report on the current status of the Wikidata Gender Diversity project and the envisioned outcomes. We will discuss the main challenges that we are facing and the opportunities that our project will potentially enable, on Wikidata and beyond. - *Paperː* Metilli D. & Paolini C.

Thank you for your feedback. I think we have a very large and open corpus of documented incidents. As said, the Wikidata workshop is not a good target conference.
