[CFP] 28th International Conference on Conceptual Structures (ICCS 2023) at the HU Berlin, Final Call (Deadline Extended)
by Kai Sauerwald 21 Mar '23

21 Mar '23

[Apologies for multiple postings.] ****************************************************************** Final Call for Papers: 28th International Conference on Conceptual Structures (ICCS 2023) September 11th-13rd, 2023, Berlin, Germany Website: https://iccs-conference.org/ Twitter: @iccs_confs Contact us: contact(a)iccs-conference.org ****************************************************************** ********** About ICCS ********** 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 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 Submissions are invited on significant, original, and previously unpublished research on the formal analysis and representation of conceptual knowledge in artificial intelligence (AI).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. **************** Invited Speakers **************** The following speaker will give keynote talks in addition to the technical programme: - Camille Roth (French National Centre for Scientific Research, Centre Marc Bloch) - Henrik Müller (TU Dortmund University) - Nina Gierasimczuk (Technical University of Denmark) ****** 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 (Extended) ************************** - Abstract registration deadline: April 3, 2023 (AoE) - Submission deadline: April 10, 2023 (AoE) - Paper Reviews Sent to Authors: May 21, 2023 (AoE) - Rebuttals Due: May 28, 2023 (AoE) - Notification to authors: June 7, 2023 (AoE) - Camera-ready papers due: June 21, 2023 (AoE) ****************** 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.

Sharing a new published article on Wikidata as a learning platform
by Shani Evenstein Sigalov 13 Mar '23

13 Mar '23

Dear all, Excited to share that my article "Investigating the potential of the semantic web for education: Exploring Wikidata as a learning platform <https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10639-023-11664-1>" has finally been published in an excellent journal "Education and Information Technologies" by Springer Nature. This has been a long time coming, and essentially the very first publication directly from my PhD research. It's worth noting that to those who know Wikidata, the article would probably not share anything new you haven't heard before; but it really was a missing piece in academic research, in terms of making the case for Wikidata as a learning platform for educators and researchers who are not familiar with it, so it's really great to finally have such a resource available. It's also a good moment to thank again the amazing Wikidata Community, and specifically all the people who filled out the questionnaire way back when and later interviewed, for this to happen. In this specific article, I was directly drawing from the work of Martin Poulter, Richard Knipel & Andrew Lih, João Alexandre Peschanski, Toby Hudson & Daniel Mietchen. Thank you all for the inspiration! Best, Shani. PS -- if you can't view the link and are interested, do drop me a line and I'll send the PDF your way.

[Wikimedia Research Showcase] March 15
by Emily Lescak 13 Mar '23

13 Mar '23

Hi all, The next Research Showcase, focused on Gender and Equity on Wikipedia, will be live-streamed Wednesday, March 15, at 9:30 AM PST / 16:30 UTC. Find your local time here <https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1678897840>. YouTube stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lw4MzJgDIzo You can join the conversation on IRC at #wikimedia-research. You can also watch our past research showcases here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Research/Showcase This month's presentations: Men Are elected, women are marriedː events gender bias on Wikipedia By *Jiao Sun, University of Southern California*Human activities can be seen as sequences of events, which are crucial to understanding societies. Disproportional event distribution for different demographic groups can manifest and amplify social stereotypes, and potentially jeopardize the ability of members in some groups to pursue certain goals. In this paper, we present the first event-centric study of gender biases in a Wikipedia corpus. To facilitate the study, we curate a corpus of career and personal life descriptions with demographic information consisting of 7,854 fragments from 10,412 celebrities. Then we detect events with a state-of-the-art event detection model, calibrate the results using strategically generated templates, and extract events that have asymmetric associations with genders. Our study discovers that the Wikipedia pages tend to intermingle personal life events with professional events for females but not for males, which calls for the awareness of the Wikipedia community to formalize guidelines and train the editors to mind the implicit biases that contributors carry. Our work also lays the foundation for future works on quantifying and discovering event biases at the corpus level. - Paperː Sun, J. & Peng, N. (2021).

This article examined the content of #VisibleWikiWomen, a global digital advocacy campaign aimed at encouraging inclusion of women voices in the global technology conversation and improving digital sustainability of feminist data on Wikipedia. In a mixed-methods study, Sentiment Analysis followed by a Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis of the campaign tweets reveals how digital gender divide manifested in the public response. An overwhelming majority of tweets expressed positive sentiment towards the objective of the campaign. An inductive reading of the coded tweets (n = 1067) generated five themes: Feminist Activism, Invisibility & Marginalization of Women, Technology for Women Empowerment, Gendered Knowledge Inequity, and Power Dynamics in the Digital Sphere. Twitter discourse presented many agitated digital users calling out the epistemic injustice on Wikipedia that goes beyond the invisibility of women. Their tweets reveal that they want an equal social platform inclusive of women of color and varied identities currently absent in the Wikipedia universe. Extracting ideas, values, and themes from new media campaigns holds unparalleled potential in the diffusion of interventions and messages on a larger scale. - Paperː Gupta, S., & Trehan, K. (2022).

strategies to parse the relevant links from wikipedia
by Luigi Assom 06 Mar '23

06 Mar '23

Hi All, for an applied research work, I am working on extracting links from the Wikipedia corpus. I've been using in the past the XML streams, but not I was hoping to speed up and handle better the situation by parsing the sql tables. However, I am stuck on this: I could not find a way to filter the relevant links. I can only filter by namespace apparently, while I want to only keep the links that were mentioned in the main text, still namespace 0, but not belonging to the infoboxes and navboxes menu. How could I do that? Is there any information that a link belongs to a menu or to the main content, beyond the namespace? Thanks All for your help, L.

CFP: wikihistories 2023: Wikipedia and its implications for memory (and forgetting)
by Heather Ford 23 Feb '23

23 Feb '23

https://wikihistories.net/2023-conference/ wikihistories 2023: Wikipedia and its implications for memory (and forgetting) Call for papers From its earliest beginnings shortly before 911,[1]<https://wikihistories.net/2023-conference/#ftnt1> Wikipedia has documented history as it happens. Revolutions,[2]<https://wikihistories.net/2023-conference/#ftnt2> terrorist attacks,[3]<https://wikihistories.net/2023-conference/#ftnt3> earthquakes,[4]<https://wikihistories.net/2023-conference/#ftnt4> fires and floods have been written about on the platform, often within minutes of the first recorded protests, attacks, and blazes. This practice of documentation, conducted by volunteers who are connected by shared interest rather than shared expertise, falls between the disciplines of digital journalism and history. What does Wikipedia’s coverage of events “that haven’t even stopped happening yet”[5]<https://wikihistories.net/2023-conference/#ftnt5> mean for history-making on the platform? Researchers have noted that recent events are covered more than early history[6]<https://wikihistories.net/2023-conference/#ftnt6>, and stories are more often presented from colonialist rather than local perspectives.[7]<https://wikihistories.net/2023-conference/#ftnt7> More recently, Wikipedia has been uncovered as a site of both conscious forgetting and the “frenzy of commemorations,”[8]<https://wikihistories.net/2023-conference/#ftnt8> a venue for nationalist propaganda projecting particular stories that favour particular ideologies and social groups. * How does Wikipedia construct history and collective memory? * Does Wikipedia enable the forging of a collective memory via consensus?[9]<https://wikihistories.net/2023-conference/#ftnt9> * How are some versions of the past pushed to the fringes? * What gets remembered and what gets forgotten? * How can we study history-making on the platform? In this first annual workshop of the wikihistories project, we will take stock of what we know and what we still need to know about Wikipedia as a history-making platform. We do this because Wikipedia’s representation of history matters. Its facts travel through knowledge ecosystems and rest as answers to questions provided by digital assistants, search engines and other AI-enhanced tools. Wikipedia’s claims to neutrality are more a hope than a promise, a guise that hides the dreams and ideologies of the individuals and groups that understand its power and are determined to master its form. We invite Wikipedia scholars and researchers to participate in a two-day symposium being held online on the 8th and 9th of June. The symposium will be held for about 4 hours at different times each day to accommodate a range of global timezones. Please send an abstract of 250-300 words to michael.falk(a)uts.edu.au<mailto:michael.falk@uts.edu.au> before March 17 (close of day anywhere in the world) responding to any of the above questions. We expect a mixture of both analytical and methodological contributions for the event which will be held annually for the 3 years of the wikihistories project. Confirmed Speakers This year’s symposium will begin with a keynote by Dr Simon Sleight<https://www.kcl.ac.uk/people/simon-sleight>, Reader in Urban History, Historical Youth Cultures and Australian History at King’s College, London. Dr Sleight is the co-editor of “History, Memory and Public Life: The Past in the Present” and will provide a rich background to our investigations of collective memory from the history discipline for an interdisciplinary audience. ________________________________ [1]<https://wikihistories.net/2023-conference/#ftnt_ref1> Brian Keegan, “An Encyclopedia with Breaking News,” in Wikipedia@ 20: Stories of an Incomplete Revolution, ed.

*** Call for Posters *** ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Uncertain Reasoning (UR) Special Track at The 36th International FLAIRS Conference (FLAIRS-36) In cooperation with the American Association for Artificial Intelligence Clearwater Beach, Florida, USA May 14-17, 2023 Poster paper submission deadline: March 20, 2023 Notification: March 27, 2023 All accepted poster papers will be included in the FLAIRS proceedings published by Florida Online Journals ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Call For Poster Papers The Special Track on Uncertain Reasoning (UR) is the oldest track in FLAIRS conferences, running annually since 1996. The UR Special Track at the 36th International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Society Conference (FLAIRS-36) is the 28th in the series. Like the past tracks, UR seeks to bring together researchers working on broad issues related to reasoning under uncertainty. Poster papers are a platform for students and researchers to present and discuss work in a early stage or work which provides an concise summary of a line of recent research. === Topics of Interest === Posters on all aspects of uncertain reasoning are invited. Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: *Uncertain reasoning formalisms, calculi and methodologies *Reasoning with probability, possibility, fuzzy logic, belief function, vagueness, granularity, rough sets, and probability logics *Modeling and reasoning using imprecise and indeterminate information, such as: Choquet capacities, comparative orderings, convex sets of measures, and interval-valued probabilities *Exact, approximate and qualitative uncertain reasoning *Probabilistic graphical models of uncertainty such as: Bayesian networks, Markov random field, probabilistic circuits *Multi-agent uncertain reasoning and decision-making *Decision-theoretic planning and Markov decision process *Temporal reasoning and uncertainty *Non-monotonic reasoning *Conditional Logics *Argumentation *Belief change and merging *Similarity-based reasoning *Ontologies and description logics *Construction of models from elicitation, data mining and knowledge discovery *Uncertain reasoning in information retrieval, filtering, fusion, diagnosis, prediction, situation assessment *Uncertain reasoning in data management *Practical applications of uncertain reasoning *Learning probabilistic models *Applications in computer vision and animation === Poster Paper Submission and Publication === Interested authors should format their poster paper according to FLAIRS-36 conference formatting guidelines. Poster papers should not exceed 2 pages (+ references) and are due by March 20, 2023. The reviewing is a double-blind process. Author names and affiliations must be omitted from submitted poster paper. Poster papers must be submitted as PDF through the EasyChair conference system, which can be accessed through the main conference website (http://www.flairs-36.info/). Authors should indicate the Uncertain Reasoning special track for submissions. All accepted poster papers will be included in the proceedings of FLAIRS, which will be published by the Florida Online Journals. The authors shall prepare a poster to present the content of their poster paper in a poster session. In order for a poster paper to be published in the proceedings, all accepted poster papers must be accompanied by at least one author registration. Instructions on the submission procedure are available at the UR website: http://ur-flairs.github.io/2023 We anticipate there will be a special issue devoted to extended versions of selected submissions at the track. === Important Dates for Poster Papers === Submission: March 20, 2023 Notification: March 27, 2023 === Program Committee === [ Track Chairs ] Kai Sauerwald FernUniversität in Hagen, Germany Choh Man Teng Institute for Human and Machine Cognition, USA [ PC Members ] Mohand Said Allili (Université du Québec en Outaouais, Canada) Alessandro Antonucci (IDSIA, Switzerland) Ofer Arieli (The Academic College of Tel-Aviv, Israel) Christoph Beierle (FernUniversität in Hagen, Germany) Salem Benferhat (University of Artois, France) Stefano Bistarelli (University of Perugia, Italy) Nizar Bouguila (Concordia University, Canada) Martine Ceberio (University of Texas at El Paso, US) Lluís Godo (University of Barcelona, Spain) Christophe Gonzales (LIS, France) Gabriele Kern-Isberner (University of Technology Dortmund, Germany) Vladik Kreinovich (University of Texas at El Paso, US) Philippe Leray (University of Nantes, France) Nicholas Mattei (Tulane University, US) Ralf Möller (University of Lübeck, Germany) Arthur Paul Pedersen (The City College of New York, US) Rafael Peñaloza Nyssen (University of Milano-Bicocca, Italy) Eugene Santos (Dartmouth College, US) Dilip Sarkar (University of Miami, US) Kari Sentz (Los Alamos National Laboratory, US) Karima Sedki (University of Paris 13, France) Karim Tabia (University of Artois, France) Carlo Taticchi (University of Perugia, Italy) === Travel Information === Additional information on the conference locale and travel planning can be found at http://www.flairs-36.info.
