Sophisticated causal reasoning has long been prevalent in human society and continues to have an undeniable impact on the advancement of science, technology, medicine, and other significant fields. From the development of ancient tools to modern roots of causal analysis in business and industry, reasoning about and understanding causality enables us to identify how an outcome of interest came to be and gives us insight into how to bring about, or even prevent, similar outcomes in future scenarios. This workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners of logic programming with a dedicated focus on methods and trends emerging from the study of causality and explanation. We welcome the submission of papers on systems, tools, and applications of logic programming methods for causal reasoning and explanation. In particular, we encourage submissions presenting recent developments, including works in progress. The workshop will present the latest research and application developments in these areas and provide opportunities to discuss current and future research directions and relationships to other fields (e.g., Machine Learning, Diagnosis, Natural Language Processing, and Understanding). An important expected outcome of this workshop is to collect first-hand feedback from the ICLP community about the role and placement of causal reasoning and explanation in the landscape of modern computer theory as well as in the software industry. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) * Modeling causal theories in logic programming * Formalization of types of causes: sufficient, necessary, actual, etc * Causality, temporal reasoning, and action theories * Causality and counterfactual reasoning * Causality and experimental design * Causality and probability * Causality and equivalence * Causality and ontology * Learning causal relations and information * Novel causal benchmarks * Relating LP-based causality and Causal Networks * Challenging problems and benchmark examples * Justifications and argumentation * Explainable AI * Explanations for diagnosis and debugging * Tools, systems, and applications Important dates: * Paper submission: May 29, 2023 (extended) * Notification: June 12, 2023 (extended) * Final Versions: June 22, 2023 (extended) * Workshop Date: July 9-10 (TBD) Submission Guidelines Submissions must describe original research and be prepared using the Springer LNAI/LNCS format (which can be found here). The workshop invites submissions of two types: * Full papers not exceeding 13 pages (excluding references) * Extended abstracts not exceeding 3 pages (excluding references) Please submit your paper via EasyChair: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=causal2023__;!!HJOPV4FYYWzcc1jazlU!8IgA1dED3Hz2Xt4eW5e_c1fPwcOVbzQZDWFJ-whwkPMIpmTYOqshgNIafA4gtQYF33VgEsWpdcYF018Am6Kipeqf$ At least one co-author of each accepted paper must register for and attend the workshop. Please check the ICLP 2023 website for registration procedure and fees. We are planning to publish a special issue with selected workshop papers. Committee * (Chair) Francesco Fabiano, University of Parma * Joost Vennekens, KU Leuven, Belgium * Tran Cao Son, New Mexico State University, USA * Pedro Cabalar, Corunna University, Spain * Jorge Fandiño, University of Nebraska at Omaha, USA * Marcello Balduccini, Saint Joseph's University, USA * Brais Muñiz, University of Coruña, Spain * Emily LeBlanc, USA (elebl...@protonmail.com) Contact All questions about submissions should be emailed to Emily LeBlanc ( elebl...@protonmail.com)
