(AW) [semanticweb] CFP: ECAI-2004 Workshop on Ontology Learning and Population
by Martin Gutbrod 20 Jan '04

20 Jan '04

> Call for Papers > > ECAI-2004 Workshop on Ontology Learning and Population: Towards > Evaluation of Text-based Methods in the Semantic Web and Knowledge > Discovery Life Cycle > > 16th European Conference on Artificial Intelligence > August 22nd - 24th 2004 > Valencia, Spain > > http://olp.dfki.de/ecai04/cfp.htm > > With Support From: KnowledgeWeb (http://knowledgeweb.semanticweb.org/) > > > > Topic and Motivation > ---------------- > Ontologies are formal, explicit specifications of shared > conceptualizations, representing concepts and their relations that are > relevant for a given domain of discourse. Currently, ontologies are > mostly developed (including ontology construction, extension, mapping > and merging) as well as used (ontology population through knowledge > markup) by a manual process, which is very ineffective and may cause > major barriers to their large-scale use in such areas as Knowledge > Discovery and Semantic Web. The expected central role of ontologies in > the organization and functioning of the Semantic Web has been well > documented in recent years. Somewhat less traditional is the role of > ontologies in incremental approaches to Knowledge Discovery, in which > ontologies and machine learning methods are used in combination to mine, > interpret and (re-)organize knowledge. > > As human language is a primary mode of knowledge transfer, linguistic > analysis of relevant documents for ontology learning and population > seems a viable option. More precisely, automation of these tasks can be > implemented by a combined use of linguistic analysis and machine > learning approaches for text mining. The workshop will therefore be > concerned with reports on the development of such methods, but > specifically also with the quantitative evaluation of these methods. > > Automatic methods for text-based ontology learning and population have > developed over recent years (e.g. results from the ECAI-2000, > IJCAI-2001, ECAI-2002 workshops on Ontology Learning and the KCAP-2001, > ECAI-2002, KCAP-2003 workshops on Knowledge Markup / Ontology > Population), but a remaining challenge is to evaluate in a quantitative > manner how useful or accurate the extracted ontology classes, properties > and instances are. In fact, this is a central issue as it is currently > very hard to compare methods and approaches, due to the lack of a shared > understanding of the task at hand. The core theme of the workshop > therefore will be to develop such a shared understanding through the > definition of a clear task (and corresponding sub-tasks), identify > resources needed for the task/sub-tasks and to discuss how best to > develop an open source evaluation platform. > > Areas of Interest > ------------ > Submissions are invited on these topics in Ontology Learning and > Population (OLP): > > * Evaluation Methodologies and Metrics for OLP > - Including Experience and Best Practice from Related Evaluation > Efforts in the Context of CLEF, TREC, SENSEVAL, etc. > * Datasets and Resources for the Evaluation of OLP > * Definition of Sub-Tasks for OLP > - Extraction of Taxonomy, Class-hierarchy > - Extraction of Class-properties, Relations > - Extraction of Class-instances, Individuals > * Definition of Related Tasks > - Ontology Extension, Evolution > - Ontology Mapping > - Ontology Merging > * Text-based Approaches for OLP, for instance (Combinations of): > - NLP and Linguistic Analysis for OLP > - (NLP-based) Text-mining for OLP > - (Ontology-aware) Information Extraction for OLP > * OLP in the Context of the Semantic Web > * OLP in the Context of Knowledge Discovery > > Workshop Schedule > --------------- > This will be a one-day workshop with a proposed schedule of 2 or 3 paper > sessions and a poster session. The workshop will include a round-table > working session in the afternoon on the topic of evaluation of ontology > learning and population. It is expected that the outcome of this > discussion will lead to a written report on guidelines for setting up an > evaluation platform for these tasks. > > Organizing Committee > ----------------- > Paul Buitelaar (DFKI) paulb(a)dfki.de > Siegfried Handschuh (AIFB) sha(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de > Bernardo Magnini (IRST) magnini(a)itc.it > > Program Committee > --------------- > AIFB - Siegfried Handschuh, Steffen Staab, York Sure > Bar Ilan University - Ido Dagan > Bosch - Alexander Maedche (tbc) > DFKI - Paul Buitelaar, Andreas Eisele, Michael Sintek > IRIT, Toulouse - Nathalie Aussenac-Gilles > IRST - Bernardo Magnini > Josef Stefan Inst. - Marko Grobelnik > KDLabs - Jörg-Uwe Kietz > LOA-CNR - Aldo Gangemi > MIG-INRA - Claire Nedellec > NCSR Demokritos - Georgios Paliouras > Univ.

...falls der nich nicht herum kam -------- Original Message -------- Subject: CfP: Building & Evaluating Ubiquitous System Software Date: Tue, 13 Jan 2004 11:56:44 +0000 From: Tim Kindberg <timothy(a)hplb.hpl.hp.com> Reply-To: majordomo(a)comp.lancs.ac.uk To: wmcsa2003-announce(a)comp.lancs.ac.uk Please accept my apologies if you've received this multiple times. Call for Papers: IEEE Pervasive Computing (also available at http://www.computer.org/pervasive/edcal0704.htm) Building and Evaluating Ubiquitous System Software Guest Editors: Vinny Cahill, Trinity College Dublin Armando Fox, Stanford University Tim Kindberg, Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, Bristol Brian Noble, University of Michigan Submission Deadline: 15 March 2004 WIP Deadline: 1 May 2004 Author guidelines: www.computer.org/pervasive/author.htm Submission address: http://cs-ieee.manuscriptcentral.com Publication date: July 2004 Ubiquitous computing environments raise new challenges for system software researchers. These environments incorporate a wide variety of devices, many of which are highly constrained in power and other local resources. Coordinating the devices is an even greater challenge because ubicomp environments tend to be volatile. Consider, for example, measuring context parameters such as human presence from a variety of sensors subject to routine disconnection and failure or exploiting services from a mobile device that regularly enters and leaves a state of connectivity. The heterogeneity and volatility of ubiquitous environments demand novel approaches to designing, building, and evaluating system software. IEEE Pervasive Computing magazine invites articles relating to system software for ubiquitous computing environments. We welcome papers that provide new software paradigms or algorithms, or relate implementation experience that other researchers can build upon. Successful submissions will clearly address an explicit ubiquitous system model and problem statement, which the authors relate to existing research. They will evaluate the proposed solution and so contribute to our knowledge of software for these systems in general. Example topics include (but are not limited to): * Resilience to routine failures and disconnections * Scalable coordination and synchronization mechanisms for volatile component collections * Operating systems and resource management algorithms for resource- constrained devices * Methods for acquiring environmental resources from minimal a priori models * Configuring and reconfiguring ubiquitous systems * Supporting spontaneous (ad hoc) interactions * The implications of physical-world integration for system design (system abstractions related to physical affordances) * Metrics and benchmarks * Case studies of deployed systems * Critical analyses of the state of the art Submissions should be 4,000 to 6,000 words long and should follow the magazine's guidelines on style and presentation. All submissions will be anonymously reviewed in accordance with normal practice for scientific publications. Electronic submissions via Manuscript Central should be received by 15 March 2004 to receive full consideration. Instructions on the submission process and the magazine guidelines on style and presentation can be found on the Author Guidelines page. In addition to full-length submissions, we also invite work-in-progress submissions of 250 words or less. These will not be peer-reviewed, but will be edited by the staff into a feature for the issue. The deadline for work-in- progress submissions is 1 May 2004.

[Fwd: [Tccc] Workshop Announcement -- Cross-Layer Issues in the Design of Tactical Mobile Ad Hoc Wireless Networks: Integration of Communication and Networking Functions to Support Optimal Information Management']
by Lars Wolf 16 Jan '04

16 Jan '04

just for your information -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] Workshop Announcement -- Cross-Layer Issues in the Design of Tactical Mobile Ad Hoc Wireless Networks: Integration of Communication and Networking Functions to Support Optimal Information Management' Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2004 14:08:01 -0500 From: Jeff Wieselthier <wieselthier(a)itd.nrl.navy.mil> To: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu At http://www.valcartier.drdc-rddc.gc.ca/tgonimdg/#upcoming you will find an Announcement and Call for Abstracts for a workshop on 'Cross-Layer Issues in the Design of Tactical Mobile Ad Hoc Wireless Networks: Integration of Communication and Networking Functions to Support Optimal Information Management'. The workshop is being organized under the auspices of Task Group 12 of the NATO Research and Technology Organization's Information Systems Technology Panel ( http://www.valcartier.drdc-rddc.gc.ca/tgonimdg/ ). It will take place on 2-3 June 2004 at the US Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, DC. The workshop will address the challenge of 'top-to-bottom' information management in disadvantaged (unreliable, low bandwidth or energy-constrained) mobile wireless military communication networks. Crucial issues relating to communication and networking in hostile environments span the entire layered structure from the physical layer up through the session layer. The conventional way to implement networks is to use a strictly layered structure, in which these issues are addressed separately, while defining interfaces to higher and lower layer functions. Although such an approach may be appropriate for wired networks, the characteristics of wireless networks suggest that improved performance may be obtained by addressing these issues in a coordinated (or "cross-layer") fashion. This workshop will address alternative approaches to various aspects of the communication/networking problem, and will assess the potential benefits that may be achieved through the vertical integration of layer functionality, with emphasis on improved collaboration with user applications to achieve optimal information management over a disadvantaged network. The topic will be of interest to military or scientific personnel concerned with the efficient use of limited resources in disadvantaged communications environments. Our keynote presentation will be given by Dr. Michael B. Pursley, Holcombe Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Clemson University. The workshop is open to citizens of NATO member countries who are working for a government, military, industrial or academic organization or institution within a NATO nation on a topic relevant to the theme of the workshop. The workshop is UNCLASSIFIED. The working language will be English. There is no registration fee. Please notify the undersigned of your desire to attend and/or make a presentation, using the form included in the attached Word document, NOT LATER THAN 18 February 2004. Submission of the form by electronic means is encouraged. We would appreciate your cooperation in forwarding the Announcement to colleagues that you feel may have an interest in the subject.
