The IJCAI-11 Workshop on
GRAPH STRUCTURES FOR KNOWLEDGE REPRESENTATION AND REASONING (GKR 2011)

http://www.lirmm.fr/~croitoru/GKR/index.html


July 16th 2011
Barcelona, Spain
============================================================================

*** Deadline: 4th April 2011 ***

============================================================================

Graph-based knowledge representation and reasoning is a growing area of 
research, with more and more important contributions appearing over the last 
few years.

Such KRR systems include Bayesian Networks (BNs), Semantic Networks (SNs), 
Conceptual Graphs (CGs), Formal Concept Analysis (FCA), CP-nets, GAI-nets, 
Euler Diagrams, Existential Graphs all of which have been successfully used in 
a number of applications (Semantic Web, Reccomender Systems, BioInformtics 
etc.). The goal of this workshop is to bring together the researchers involved 
in the development and application of graph-based knowledge representation 
formalisms and reasoning techniques.

This workshop will investigate further developments of knowledge representation 
and reasoning graph based techniques. The workshop is expected to bring 
together people from different research communities that are actively pursuing 
this line of research. We hope that the presentation of different perspectives 
on employing graphs for representation and reasoning will be mutually enriching 
and will stimulate further research.

The papers will be judged from two perspectives: technical and application:

  * Technical results will include graph theory based results for novel 
structures for representation, extensions of existing structures for added 
expressivity, conciseness, optimisation algorithms for reasoning, reasoning 
explanation mechanisms etc.

  * Papers reporting on application experience will be expected to demonstrate 
the benefits of the proposed solutions.
