Summary

Since 2005, the annual SEMANTiCS conference has been the meeting place for
researchers, industry experts, and business leaders to discuss the latest
trends and application scenarios in the fields of Knowledge Graphs, Machine
Learning, Data Science, Linked Data, Artificial Intelligence, and Natural
Language Processing.

SEMANTiCS tackles challenges faced by information managers, software
engineers, IT-architects, and various domain experts who are involved in
the development, implementation, and evaluation of semantic software
systems. The SEMANTiCS program offers a diverse range of technical talks,
panel discussions on relevant topics, and contributions from individuals
actively engaged in practical implementation or scholarly research.
Attendees can network with experts in a variety of fields. These
relationships provide great value to organisations as they encounter subtle
technical issues at any stage of implementation. The expertise gained by
SEMANTiCS attendees has a long-term impact on their professional
trajectories and organisational endeavours. These factors make SEMANTiCS the
major outreach event on semantic technologies across Europe, America, and
beyond.
Research and Innovation Track

The Research and Innovation track at SEMANTiCS 2024 welcomes papers on
novel scientific research and innovations relevant to the Semantic Web,
Semantic Technologies, and Semantic-enabled AI. We also welcome submissions
at the intersection between this field and other scientific disciplines.
Submissions should be original and should not have been published elsewhere
in any form or language. Papers must adhere to the instructions given in
the submission guidelines, including references and optional appendices.
Each submission will receive at least three independent reviews and will be
evaluated based on their novelty, technical quality, reproducibility, and
practical significance.
