Please apologies for cross postings. **************************************************************************************** 3rd CALL FOR PAPERS - EXTENDED Deadline **************************************************************************************** "Special Track on Ontology Lifecycle Methods - Algorithms for Ontology Learning, Evolution and Mining" This one-day special track takes place on the 3rd September during TRIPLE-I '08 in Graz, Austria (3 - 5 September 2008) as part of I-SEMANTICS '08. The Special Track provides an interdisciplinary forum for international scientists and practitioners to discuss various aspects of Ontology Lifecycle Methods (OLM). http://www.triple-i.tugraz.at/i_semantics/special_tracks/olm Encoding human knowledge is one of the crucial tasks to be mastered towards the realization of the Semantic Web. Knowledge is never static in a changing world therefore a representation must evolve over time. The Ontology Lifecycle involves all steps necessary for ontology creation, validation, evolution and application in a dynamic environment. The special track will focus on automatic and semi-automatic algorithms and methods as well as their evaluation in the fields of Ontology Learning, Population, Evaluation, Matching and Alignment. Submissions about data source/corpus analysis and application of web data sources for ontology learning, population and evolution are also very welcome. Quantitative ontology analysis, graph property extraction and graph mining methods as well as trend identification in evolving ontologies are aims of high interest within the ontology lifecycle and therefore part of this special track. We invite contributions to enhance state-of-the-art methods and algorithms for the ontology lifecycle. Topics include but are not limited to: * Ontology Lifecycle Algorithm and Methods * Ontology Learning * Ontology Population * Ontology Versioning and Evolution * Semantic Interoperability * Ontology Matching and Alignment * Change propagation within the Ontology Evolution Process * Formal Aspects and Languages * Applications and Tools * Tools for the Ontology Lifecycle * Visualisations of the Ontology Lifecycle * Knowledge Relationship Discovery * Information Retrieval for Ontology Learning and Evolution * Machine Learning Techniques * Graph Mining Algorithms and Methods * Graph Matching and Indexing The special track is open to all members of the Semantic Web, Ontology Learning, Machine Learning, Graph Analysis and Information Retrieval community. http://www.triple-i.tugraz.at/i_semantics/special_tracks/olm -------------------- IMPORTANT DATES -------------------- 28 April 2008: Submission of the full papers (8 pages) EXTENDED Deadline 31 May 2008: Notification of acceptance 09 June 2008: Camera ready version (8 pages) 3-5 Sept. 2008: TRIPLE-I Conference -------------------- SUBMISSION PROCEDURE -------------------- File Types: PDF, Word for Windows Style Guides: http://www.triple-i.tugraz.at/about/style_guide Paper Submission System: http://i-know.know-center.tugraz.at/chairhelper/isemantics08_olm/submission In case of problems or questions concerning the submission of papers, please contact the track chairs at olm@know-center.at. -------------------- Notification of Acceptance and Publishing -------------------- Accepted papers will be published within the I-SEMANTICS '08 conference proceedings.
