***************************************************************
KGCW is a full-day workshop on Knowledge Graph construction co-located with the Extended Semantic Web Conference 2024 (ESWC2024<https://2024.eswc-conferences.org/>). KGCW has a special focus this time on novel techniques, frameworks, architectures, and tools for the new extensions of RML such as RDF Collections and Containers, Transformation Functions, and RDF-Star support and the newest version of the RDF Mapping Language (RML) in general. Our goal is to provide a venue for scientific discourse, systematic analysis, and rigorous evaluation of languages, techniques, and tools, as well as practical and applied experiences and lessons learned for constructing knowledge graphs from academia and industry. The workshop complements and aligns with the activities of the W3C CG on KG construction<https://www.w3.org/community/kg-construct/>.


The Second Knowledge Graph Construction Challenge
----------------
This year we have prepared the second edition of the challenge on KG construction<https://w3id.org/kg-construct/workshop/2024/#challenge> to compare and measure the performance of different engines beyond execution time, as well as the conformance to the new RML specification<http://w3id.org/rml/portal> for those engines implementing RML

Any engine able to transform heterogeneous data into RDF graphs is welcome to submit its results. All information will be available soon but if you already have any questions, please join us on Slack<https://join.slack.com/t/kg-construct/shared_invite/zt-1ftm8ebvo-qtu4xC_psKBZrgqF8ZPMtw>.

Submission guidelines
---------------------------------
Share your contribution before the deadline through the OpenReview platform<https://openreview.net/group?id=eswc-conferences.org/ESWC/2024/Workshop/KGCW>. The accepted contributions will be published in the proceedings of the workshop. Each accepted paper needs to be presented by one of the authors at the workshop onsite.

Contributions for the challenge only require to have an abstract submitted through the OpenReview platform<https://openreview.net/group?id=eswc-conferences.org/ESWC/2024/Workshop/KGCW>. The results must be submitted as well, and presented at the workshop. Optionally, a report can be submitted after the workshop and it will appear within the proceedings of the workshop.

     *   Addressing issues identified by the W3C CG on KG construction
     *   Providing solutions for alignments between mapping languages
     *   Providing innovative and reproducible workflows for knowledge graph construction
     *   Automatization of KG construction (e.g., SemTab challenge approaches, LLMS)
     *   New techniques and approaches for the new RML version.
  *   In Use and Experience papers (12-15 pages), as well as demo papers (4-6 pages)
