Second International Workshop on Contextualized Knowledge Graphs (CKG2019)
Co-located with ISWC 2019 (Auckland, New Zealand, October 26-27, 2019)

We cordially invite you to submit your paper to CKG2019, which will be held
as a part of the 18th International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC) in
Auckland, New Zealand, October 26-27.

CKG2019 is concerned with knowledge graphs with contexts, i.e., every fact
is enriched by the contexts (e.g., provenance, time, location, or
confidence). Contextualized Knowledge Graphs (CKGs) have been gaining
importance in the recent years. Research topics include contextualized and
distributed Description Logics, annotation of statements in the Semantic
Web, and Distributed Knowledge Repositories. Real-world use cases include
the creation of collaborative knowledge bases, such as Wikidata, where
qualifiers and references can be attached to every statement. This workshop
aims to serve as a gathering point for researchers and industry interested
in CKGs to discuss current challenges and future solutions, and raise
awareness about this emerging topic to a more broader Semantic Web
community. This workshop addresses fundamental as well as practical topics
including (i) logical models to encode the contextual annotations in the
graph, (ii) reasoning and querying over CKGs, (iii) using CKGs in
applications such as query answering, data mining, or machine learning,
(iv) techniques to benchmark or improve the performance of CKG storage and
querying systems. This workshop is complemented by a W3C community on this
topic.
