The 1st International Joint Conference on Learning & Reasoning (IJCLR
2021), will take place from October 25 to 27 2021 as a fully virtual event:
http://lr2020.iit.demokritos.gr/ <http://lr2020.iit.demokritos.gr/>
*Scope*
A crucial milestone for taking full advantage of the AI potential is the
endowment of algorithms that learn from experience with the ability to
consult existing knowledge and reason with what has already been
learned. Integrating learning and reasoning constitutes one of the key
open questions in AI, and holds the potential of addressing many of the
shortcomings of contemporary AI approaches, including the black-box
nature and the brittleness of deep learning, and the difficulty to adapt
knowledge representation models in the light of new data. Integrating
learning and reasoning calls for approaches that combine knowledge
representation and machine reasoning techniques with learning algorithms
from the fields of neural, statistical and relational learning.
IJCLR 2021 brings together four international conferences & workshops,
addressing all aspects of combining knowledge representation & machine
reasoning with statistical, neural and symbolic learning:
- The 30th International Conference on Inductive Logic Programming (ILP).
- The 15th International Workshop on Neural-Symbolic Learning &
Reasoning (NeSy).
- The 10th International Workshop on Statistical Relational Artificial
Intelligence (StarAI).
- The 10th International Workshop on Approaches and Applications of
Inductive Programming (AAIP).
IJCLR 2021 aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners
working on various aspects of learning & reasoning, via presentation of
cutting-edge research on topics of special interest to the participating
conferences/workshops. In addition to each of the four events'
individual programs, which will be held in parallel, IJCLR aims to
promote collaboration and cross-fertilization between different
approaches and methodologies to integrating learning & reasoning, via
joint keynotes, panel discussions and poster sessions.
*Call for extended abstracts and recently published papers*
During a second round of paper submissions we invite authors that wish
to present their work at the conference to submit late-breaking
abstracts and recently published papers within the scope of IJCLR.
*Late-breaking abstracts* are invited to either ILP or AAIP. To submit
an abstract follow the submission link at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ijclr2021
<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ijclr2021>
and select one of the ILP/AAIP options. Submissions should briefly
outline novel ideas and proposals that the authors would like to present
at the conference. These could include e.g. original work in progress
without conclusive experimental findings, or other relevant work, not
yet ready for publication. Submissions of late-breaking abstracts will
be accepted/rejected on the grounds of relevance to the scope of
ILP/AAIP. Accepted late-breaking abstracts will be published on the
conference website. Submissions must not exceed 4 pages, including
references.
*Recently published papers* within the scope of IJCLR, or papers
recently accepted for publication by a first-class conference such as
AAAI, IJCAI, UAI, ECML/PKDD, ICML, KDD, ICDM, ICLR etc. or journal such
as MLJ, DMKD, JMLR etc. These will be accepted/rejected on the grounds
of relevance and quality of the original publication venue. For papers
of this category a link to the original work will be published on the
conference website. Authors should submit the abstract and the PDF file
of the original submission, specifying in the abstract the original
venue where the paper was accepted, in addition to the acceptance date.
Authors submitting a recently published paper should submit it through
IJCLR's "Recently Published Papers Track" option from the submission page
