<span class="ContentPasted0" style="font-family:Arial;font-size:11pt;margin:0px">The purpose of the workshop is to bridge the gap between the cognitive sciences and research on formal ontologies and, thus, to create a venue for researchers interested in interdisciplinary

<span class="ContentPasted0" style="font-family:Arial;font-size:11pt;margin:0px">More specifically, CAOS investigates key cognitive phenomena and concepts (and the involved terminology) that can be found across language, psychology, and reasoning, and how they
can be formally and ontologically understood and analysed. By exploring the connection between cognitive sciences/experimental psychology and ontologies (as well as, more generally, logic and symbolic AI), the aim is to provide formal modelling and analysis
for capturing such connections.</span></p>

epistemological adequacy of ontological modelling.</span></p>
