“Multi-modal Knowledge Capture in the Age of Big Web Data”
Marina del Rey, California, 19-21 November, 2019

The Tenth International Conference on Knowledge Capture will feature researchers from diverse areas of Artificial Intelligence on the central theme of knowledge capture, including knowledge representation, knowledge acquisition, machine learning and knowledge graphs. The First International Conference on Knowledge Capture was held in October, 2001 in Victoria, British Columbia, and was a follow-up of the series of Knowledge Acquisition Workshops (KAW) held from October 1986 every eighteen months until 1999. K-CAP has continued to attract top-tier researchers in knowledge acquisition and Semantic Web in a close-knit, three-day setting that brings the community together to discuss and present cutting-edge research in a variety of modalities, including workshops, tutorials and oral presentations for main research-track papers.
 
We have two special keynote speakers at this year’s K-CAP, including Peter Clark from the Allen Institute for AI, and Catherine Havasi, from MIT Media Lab. More details on the talks and the speakers may be found at http://www.k-cap.org/2019/invited-speakers/index.html <http://www.k-cap.org/2019/invited-speakers/index.html>

K-CAP 2019 will take place on the 19-21 November 2019 in Marina del Rey, California <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marina_del_Rey,_California>, which is a scenic fishing village located in Los Angeles County. The conference will be hosted at the Marina del Rey Marriott <https://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/laxmb-marina-del-rey-marriott/>, a major hotel that is just 4-miles north from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), 3-blocks from the beautiful sandy beaches of Venice Beach and 2-miles south from Santa Monica shopping attractions. The hotel offers easy access to a variety of Los Angeles area highlights, in addition to providing access to over 30 restaurants within walking distance.
 
We have reserved a small number of rooms at the Marriott for conference attendees between the nights of 15-25 November at a rate of 199 USD per night. These rooms may be reserved on a first-come-first-serve basis till there is availability or before Tuesday, October 29, whichever comes earlier. Additionally, Marina del Rey (and more broadly LA County) has many accommodation options, including inns, hotels and short-term rentals like Airbnb for travelers of all budgets.
 
We hope to see you all this year in K-CAP 2019!
