The scientific program is composed of thematic tracks. Submitted papers will be subject to a rigorous revision process and accepted papers will be published in Springer’s Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI). <br class=""><br class="">**************************************<br class="">Important Dates<br class="">**************************************<br class=""><br class="">Paper submission deadline: Apr 30, 2024<br class="">Notification of paper acceptance: Jun 15, 2024<br class="">Camera-ready papers deadline: Jul 15, 2024<br class="">Conference dates: September 3-6, 2024<br class=""><br class="">**************************************<br class="">Submission and Reviewing<br class="">**************************************<br class=""><br class="">- All papers should be submitted in PDF format through the EPIA 2024 EasyChair submission page <a href="https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=epia2024" class="">https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=epia2024</a><br class="">- Prospective authors should select the KRR track. The papers should be prepared according to the Springer LNAI format, with a maximum of 12 pages.<br class="">- Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process and will be peer-reviewed by at least three members of our track Program Committee. It is the responsibility of the authors to remove names and affiliations from the submitted papers, and to take reasonable care to assure anonymity during the review process.<br class="">- Authors should consult Springer’s authors’ guidelines and use their proceedings templates, either for LaTeX or for Word, for the preparation of their papers. <br class=""><br class="">**************************************<br class="">Proceedings and Presentations<br class="">**************************************<br class="">- Accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings (as in previous editions, the publication of a volume of Springer's LNAI-Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence is expected), as long as at least one author is registered in EPIA 2024 by the deadline advance registration.<br class="">- EPIA 2024 proceedings are indexed in Thomson Reuters ISI Web of Science, Scopus, DBLP and Google Scholar.<br class="">- Each accepted paper must be presented by one of the authors in a track session.<br class=""><br class="">**************************************<br class="">Awards<br class="">**************************************<br class=""><br class="">The conference will grant the following awards:<br class="">* Best Paper Award, for the best research paper presented at the conference<br class="">* Best Application Paper, for the best application paper presented at the conference<br class="">* Best Student Paper Award, for the best research paper presented at the conference where the first author is a student (to confirm)<br class=""><br class="">Important: only papers that have been submitted to a thematic track and presented at the conference will be eligible for these awards.<br class=""><br class="">**************************************<br class="">Topics for KRR track<br class="">**************************************<br class=""><br
