Knowledge graphs and other forms of structured data models with
machine-interpretable semantics are being widely adopted and serve as the
basis for many advanced applications on the Web, powered by combinations of
and use of Web Data, with techniques from many other fields. A significant
fraction of web pages, emails and other types of documents contain semantic
markup, including open, closed and even personal data, forming a parallel
Web of linked data that are empowering research in areas ranging from basic
science and engineering to the social sciences and social benefit.

These successes have opened the doors to challenges that are the focus of
the Semantics and Knowledge track. This includes the creation, acquisition,
publication and consumption of large scale, interlinked structured data
corpora available on the web bridging structured and unstructured data, and
techniques for (human-assisted) semantic integration, enrichment and
processing of large, real-world datasets in a Web context. This also
includes aspects related to the management of provenance, trust, security
and privacy, and ethics. We are looking for open research on web data at
web scale.

Topics include (but are not limited to):

* Scalable Techniques for the creation, curation, publication and
consumption of Large, Web-based, Structured, Reusable, Knowledge Graphs,
including Methods for Developing and Maintaining Shared
Vocabularies/Ontologies

* Representation, Semantic Annotation, Enhancement, Enrichments, Access
and/or Integration of a Variety of Data on the Web, including
Semi-structured Data, Text, Multimedia and Sensor Data

* Data Modeling in Support of Intelligent System Behavior, Explanations and
User-friendly Interaction

* Provenance, Trust, Security and Privacy, and Ethical Issues in Managing
Semantic Data

* Applications of Semantic Technologies for Improving Search, Browsing,
Personalization in Applications and Domains of Interest to the Web
Community, e.g. News, Recommendations, Humanities, Social Sciences,
Medical, etc.
