Call for papers: IJCAI Workshop on Learning and Reasoning: Principles & Applications to Everyday Spatial and Temporal Knowledge
http://www.iiia.csic.es/LR2018/ Submission deadline: May 15 Knowledge representation and reasoning (KRR), on the one hand, and machine learning (ML), on the other hand, have largely been developed as independent research trends in artificial intelligence (AI). Human reasoning, however, is often based on an intricate combination of processes that are related to learning (e.g. induction or extrapolation) and processes that are closer to deductive reasoning. Similarly, we can expect that progress in AI will increasingly need to rely on hybrid approaches that combine the explainability and teachability of KRR methods with the robustness and data-driven nature of ML methods. The ambitious aim of truly integrating reasoning and learning beyond one-way linkage raises many new questions, which this workshop hopes to explore. Beyond a study of the underlying principles, this workshop will also focus on applications, with a particular emphasis on the use of spatial and temporal knowledge in everyday tasks. The workshop will serve as a forum for researchers from different fields (including Automated Theorem Proving, Cognitive Computing, Cognitive Robotics, Commonsense Reasoning, Constraint Solving, Logic, Mathematics, Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, Theoretical Computer Science, Qualitative Reasoning) to discuss open problems, methodology, and recent advancements in the field. It also provides a forum for early career researchers to present their current work and to build up networks. We invite technical contributions mixing or linking advanced ideas from knowledge representation and reasoning with ideas from machine learning or data mining.
