==============
We are inviting proposals for workshops and tutorials to be held on
September 13, 2023, in conjunction with the fourth biennial conference on
Language, Data and Knowledge (LDK 2023) in Vienna, Austria. Building upon
the success of the previous events held in Galway, Ireland in 2017, in
Leipzig, Germany in 2019, and in Zaragoza, Spain in 2021, this conference
will bring together researchers from across disciplines concerned with the
acquisition, curation, and use of language data in the context of data
science and knowledge-based applications.
Submission Guidelines
We welcome workshop and tutorial proposals that are of relevance to the
topics listed below. All submissions should be *in English* as a single PDF
file no longer than 4 (four) pages, following the LNCS file format. For
details on the LNCS style, please see Springer’s Author Instructions
<https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines>
.
The decision on acceptance or rejection of a workshop proposal will be made
on the basis of the overall quality of the proposal and its appeal to
linguistics and knowledge-based communities. Other factors, such as overlap
with other workshop proposals, or issues regarding logistics, will also be
taken into account when making the final decision.
Submissions should include the following details:
1. Title of the workshop or tutorial
2. List of organizers or tutorial presenters: List the names,
affiliations, and home page links, and provide short (one-paragraph)
biographies for all workshop organisers or tutorial presenters.
3. List of topics: For workshops, provide a list of topics of relevance
to the workshop. For tutorials, provide a detailed outline of the topics
that will be covered.
4. Detailed description: Provide a 200-word summary that motivates and
describes the list of topics in further detail.
5. Past workshops or tutorials: Describe any previous editions of the
same workshop or tutorial, along with an estimated size of the audience.
6. Format: Describe the proposed format for the event
(physical/virtual). For instance, for workshops, describe the envisioned
mix, i.e. invited talks, submitted paper presentations, poster sessions,
panels, or demo sessions. For tutorials, describe to what extent the
tutorial will consist of slide presentations vs. practical hands-on
training.
7. Expected audience: Describe the expected size and composition of the
audience.
8. Duration: Indicate if the workshop or tutorial is planned to last
half a day (4h) or a full day (8h).
9. Technical requirements: List any special requirements, such as
audio-visual equipment, poster boards, etc.
10. Committee members: For workshops, if available, provide a
preliminary list of people who have agreed to serve as program committee
members.
11. References: List relevant publications.
Accepted workshops will be required to prepare a workshop website
containing their call for papers and detailed information about the
workshop organisation and timelines.
Each proposal will be reviewed by the workshop and tutorial chairs and
relevant members of the organising committee of LDK2023 and ranked based on
the overall quality of the proposal and the workshop’s fit to the
conference as detailed below. In particular, workshops should address
research topics that satisfy each of the following criteria:
1. The topic proposed by the workshops should fall in the general scope
of LDK2023.
2. The workshop’s target should be clear and anchor a specific
technology, problem or application.
3. The aim of the workshop is to attract a broad community of interested
individuals.
4. The format of the workshop can invite various types of contributions
(oral and poster presentations) and can be accommodated in online/hybrid
settings.
5. Workshop proposals on *emerging topics* are encouraged.
List of Topics
- Fundamental technical and theoretical problems of language data /
linked data and knowledge graphs.
- Applications of language data and semantic web technologies in domains
such as law, medicine, life science, digital humanities, mobility and smart
cities, etc.
- Research areas that have been largely neglected or underrepresented in
language data and semantic web studies.
- Other research areas relevant to language data to language data and
semantic web research (such as data science, artificial intelligence, big
data analytics, human-computer interaction, natural language processing,
and information retrieval).
- New *emerging topics*.
We encourage diversity in the organising and program committee: from
different institutions and the presence of young researchers and Ph.D.
students. At least one of the organisers should be registered to LDK2023.
All organisers (presenters) of accepted workshops are expected to:
1. Have their own (open) reviewing process and take care of their
publicity (e.g., website, timelines, and call for papers).
2. Workshop organisers will be asked to:
1. Attend LDK2023 in person (at least one organiser).
2. Closely cooperate with the Workshop Chairs to finalise all
organisational details.
