Declarative AI CfP: RuleML+RR 2022

RuleML+RR 2022
26th-28th September in Berlin, Germany
https://2022.declarativeai.net/events/ruleml-rr/ruleml-rr-cfp
(part of DeclarativeAI and co-located with DecisionCAMP and the 18th
Reasoning Web Summer School)

The RuleML+RR 2022 conference is part of the event “Declarative AI: Rules,
Reasoning, Decisions, and Explanations” and is co-located with DecisionCAMP
2022 and the Reasoning Web Summer The 6th International Joint Conference on
Rules and Reasoning (RuleML+RR 2022) is the leading international joint
conference in the field of rule-based reasoning. One of the main goals of
RuleML+RR is to build bridges between academia and industry in the area of
School. See https://2022.declarativeai.net/ .

RuleML+RR 2022 aims to bring together rigorous researchers and inventive
practitioners, interested in the foundations and applications of rules and
reasoning.  It provides a forum for stimulating cooperation and
cross-fertilization between different communities focused on the research,
development, and applications of rule-based systems. We are looking for
high-quality papers related to theoretical advances, novel technologies, and
artificial intelligence applications that involve rule-based representation
and reasoning.

* Scalability and expressive power of logics for the Semantic Web
* Scalability and expressive power of logics for rules

### Rules and Interoperability
* Rule markup languages, rule interchange formats, and rule standards
* Rule-based policies, reputation, and trust

### System descriptions, applications and experiences of ontologies and
rules in:
* climate change monitoring, mitigation & adaptation

* law, regulation, and finance
* Digital Twins
* Industrial contexts
* Production & business rule systems

Main conference track
High-quality papers related to theoretical advances, novel technologies, and
artificial intelligence applications concerning explainable algorithmic
decision-making that involve rule-based representation and reasoning are
solicited.
We accept the following submission formats for papers:
* Long papers (up to 15 pages in LNCS style)
* Short papers (up to 8 pages in LNCS style) Long papers should present
original and significant research and/or development results. Short papers
should concisely describe general results or specific applications, systems,
or position statements.

Submissions to RuleML+RR
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap with papers that have been
published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a
conference/workshop with formal proceedings. Double submission to a workshop
with informal proceedings is allowed. Papers put on arXiv are also allowed
as long as they are not refereed (i.e., formally reviewed by peers). All
submissions must be prepared in Springer's LNCS style
(http://www.springer.com/comp/lncs/authors.html). 

In addition to regular submissions, RuleML+RR 2022 will include the • 16th
International Rule Challenge, • Industry track,  and • Doctoral Consortium
which will have their own proceedings published in CEUR. RuleML+RR 2022 is
co-located with DecisionCAMP 2022 and the 18th Reasoning Web Summer School
(RW 2022).

Publication
The conference proceedings will be published by Springer in the Lecture
Notes in Computer Science series (LNCS) after the conference. A selection of
the accepted papers of RuleML+RR 2021 will be invited for submission to the
Journal of Theory and Practice of Logic Programming (TPLP) published by
Cambridge University Press.

Important dates
* May 24th: Title and abstract submission
* June 2nd: Paper submission deadline
* August 1st: Notification of acceptance
* September 26th-28th: Conference

For each of these deadlines, a cut-off point of 23:59 AOE applies.
