Debugging and Evaluation of Ontologies @ JOWO

First Call for Papers

DEW@JOWO 2017: Debugging and Evaluation Workshop - DEW
http://iaoa.org/jowo/dew2017

To be held as part of the 3rd Joint Ontology Workshops, September
21-23, 2017, Bozen-Bolzano, Italy
(see http://iaoa.org/jowo/JOWO-2017/ for the full JOWO program)

The ontology Debugging and Evaluation Workshop (DEW) invites
submission of original papers for potential inclusion in DEW 2017.

DEW aims to advance ontology evaluation and the detection,
understanding, and correction of errors in ontologies and ontological
knowledge bases.

Potential topics include methods, tools, and challenges in ontology
debugging and evaluation, as well as quality criteria, metrics,
experimental results, and lessons learned.

Submissions may range in emphasis, focusing more on experience or on
theory, for example. A diversity of perspectives is also hoped for,
including those of ontology (re)users, ontology developers, and those
responsible for quality assurance of ontologies incorporated into
larger systems.
