CFP: ECML/PKDD Workshop on Knowledge Discovery and Ontologies (KDO-2005)

*** Please, excuse multiple cross-postings

**********************************
Call for papers
2nd International Workshop on Knowledge Discovery and Ontologies (KDO-2005)
held within ECML/PKDD 2005, Porto, Portugal, October 7, 2005.
http://webhosting.vse.cz/svatek/KDO05

**********************************

Submission deadline: July 25th, 2005


*** Description

Early approaches to KDD typically relied on one-size-fits-all solutions.
More recently, however, the role of available prior knowledge as well as
specific profile of the user have been increasingly taken into account.
Such contextual information may help select the suitable data, prune the
space of hypothesis and represent the output in a most comprehensible way.
Ontological grounding is a pre-requisite for efficient automated usage of
such information with respect to a particular mining session. Notably,
availability of domain ontologies also enables to automatically expose the
mining results on the semantic web, to provide some KDD tools in the form
of (semantic) web services, or to handle heterogeneous and complex objects
when mining web data for the purpose of (semantic) web personalisation.
In some domains large bodies of consensual knowledge already exist. This is
the case in medicine: although e.g. UMLS or Foundational Model of Anatomy
are not ideal ontologies (i.e. formal theories) in the strictly logical
sense, they express large-scale and long-term pragmatic structuring of
domain knowledge. In many other domains, however, it might be necessary to

ISWC 05 Markup and Annotation Workshop


---------------------------------------------------------------
We apologize if you receive this message more than once.
---------------------------------------------------------------

Call for papers

5th International Workshop on Knowledge Markup and Semantic Annotation
 (SemAnnot 2005)
 http://km.aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de/ws/semannot2005

Workshop at the  4rd International Semantic Web Conference 
 (ISWC 2005)

 7 November 2005
 Galway, Ireland

---------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------

*** OBJECTIVES ***
While a lot of basic infrastructure exists now for the Semantic Web (OWL, 
Editors, Inference-Engines), the lack of semantic metadata is still a major 
hurdle for the broad success of the Semantic Web. To overcome this obstacle, 
one needs methods that facilitate and accelerate the creation of metadata at 
a mass scale.  

The workshop will address the issue of upgrading the actual web towards the 
semantic web by means of (automated) annotated strategies for web documents. 
The target audience are researchers and developers working towards the
