We are pleased to invite you to contribute to the 20th International Conference on Semantic Systems 2024 held in Amsterdam, Netherlands, from 17-19 September 2024. https://2024-eu.semantics.cc/ ****************** Important Dates: ****************** Abstract Submission Deadline: April 22 , 2024 Paper Submission Deadline: April 29, 2024 Notification of Acceptance: June 11, 2024 Camera-Ready Paper Deadline: July 09, 2024 All deadlines are set for 11:59 pm, Anywhere on Earth time (UTC-12) Proceedings of SEMANTiCS 2024 EU will be made available open access. ****************** Summary: ****************** Since 2005, the annual SEMANTiCS conference has been the meeting place for researchers, industry experts, and business leaders to discuss the latest trends and application scenarios in the fields of Knowledge Graphs, Machine Learning, Data Science, Linked Data, Artificial Intelligence, and Natural Language Processing. SEMANTiCS tackles challenges faced by information managers, software engineers, IT-architects, and various domain experts who are involved in the development, implementation, and evaluation of semantic software systems. The SEMANTiCS program offers a diverse range of technical talks, panel discussions on relevant topics, and contributions from individuals actively engaged in practical implementation or scholarly research. Attendees can network with experts in a variety of fields. These relationships provide great value to organisations as they encounter subtle technical issues at any stage of implementation. The expertise gained by SEMANTiCS attendees has a long-term impact on their professional trajectories and organisational endeavours. These factors make SEMANTiCS the major outreach event on semantic technologies across Europe, America, and beyond. ************************************ Research and Innovation Track: ************************************ The Research and Innovation track at SEMANTiCS 2024 welcomes papers on novel scientific research and innovations relevant to the Semantic Web, Semantic Technologies, and semantic-enabled AI. We also welcome submissions at the intersection between this field and other scientific disciplines. Submissions should be original and should not have been published elsewhere in any form or language. Papers must adhere to the instructions given in the submission guidelines, including references and optional appendices. Each submission will receive at least three independent reviews and will be evaluated based on their novelty, technical quality, reproducibility, and practical significance. ************************ Topics of Interest: ************************ SEMANTiCS 2024 calls for submissions of excellent quality addressing the following topics in the Semantic Web area, from both theoretical and practical perspectives. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Web Semantics & Linked (Open) Data * Enterprise Knowledge Graphs, Graph Data Management * Machine Learning Techniques for/using Knowledge Graphs (e.g. reinforcement learning, deep learning, data mining and knowledge discovery) * Interplay between generative AI and Knowledge Graphs (e.g., RAG approach) * Knowledge Management (e.g. acquisition, capture, extraction, authoring, integration, publication) * Terminology, Thesaurus & Ontology Management, Ontology engineering * Reasoning, Rules, and Policies * Natural Language Processing for/using Knowledge Graphs (e.g. entity linking and resolution using target knowledge such as Wikidata and DBpedia, foundation models) * Crowdsourcing for/using Knowledge Graphs * Data Quality Management and Assurance * Mathematical Foundation of Knowledge-aware AI * Multimodal Knowledge Graphs * Semantics in Data Science * Semantics in Blockchain environments * Trust, Data Privacy, and Security with Semantic Technologies * IoT, Stream Processing, dealing with temporal data * Conversational AI and Dialogue Systems * Provenance and Data Change Tracking * Semantic Interoperability (via mapping, crosswalks, standards, etc.) * Linked Data storage, triple stores, graph databases * Robust and scalable management, querying and analysis of semantics and data * User interfaces for the Semantic Web & its management * Explainable and Interoperable AI * Decentralised and Federated Knowledge Graphs (e.g., Federated querying, link traversal) Application of Semantically-Enriched and AI-Based Approaches, such as, but not limited to: * Knowledge Graphs in Bioinformatics, Medical AI and preventive healthcare * Clinical Use Case of semantic-enabled AI-based Approaches * AI for Environmental Challenges * Semantics in Scholarly Communication and Scientific Knowledge Graphs * AI and LOD within GLAM (galleries, libraries, archives, and museums) institutions * Knowledge Graphs & hybrid AI for predictive maintenance and Industry 4.0/5.0 * Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage * LegalTech, AI Safety, EU AI Act * Economics of Data, Data Services, and Data Ecosystems Submissions will be through Easychair.
