Call for Papers 3rd Workshop on the Multilingual Semantic Web colocated with the 11th International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2012), Boston MA, USA Although knowledge processing on the Semantic Web is inherently language-independent, human interaction with semantically structured and linked data will remain inherently language-based as it often requires text or speech input – in many different languages. Semantic Web development will therefore be increasingly concerned with knowledge extraction, integration and interaction in multiple languages, making multilinguality an emerging challenge to the global advance of Semantic Web and linked data use and development across language communities around the world. The 3rd workshop on the Multilingual Semantic Web has a focus on the underlying multilingual web infrastructure as well as the linguistic annotation needed for multilingual knowledge extraction, integration and interaction. The workshop will be supported by the Ontology-Lexica W3C Community Group, the W3C MultilingualWeb-LT Working Group, the ISO-Space project and ISO-TimeML: http://www.w3.org/community/ontolex/ http://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/ http://sites.google.com/site/wikiisospace/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO-TimeML The vision of the Multilingual Semantic Web workshop series is the creation of a Semantic Web where semantically structured information can be aligned, integrated and used across languages. The workshops are concerned with research questions on how current Semantic Web infrastructure can and should be extended to support this vision. Expected Topics - among others - best practices for representing multilingual data on the Web - models for the integration of linguistic information with ontologies - architectures and infrastructure for the Multilingual Semantic Web - models for multilinguality in OWL and RDF(S) - localization of ontologies to multiple languages - automatic integration of (multilingual) lexicons with ontologies - multilingual aspects of ontology-based information extraction - multilingual aspects of semantic search - multilingual aspects of knowledge repository querying - multilinguality and linked data (generation, querying, visualization) - multilingual aspects of ontology verbalization - ontology learning across languages Important Dates Submission: Jul 31 2012 Notification: Aug 21 2012 Camera-ready: Sep 10 2012 For submissions (in PDF only) use: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=msw3 Organizing Committee Paul Buitelaar - National University of Ireland, Galway Philipp Cimiano - University of Bielefeld, Germany David Lewis - Trinity College Dublin, Ireland James Pustejovsky - Brandeis University, Waltham MA, USA Felix Sasaki - W3C & DFKI GmbH, Berlin, Germany
