CFP: 1st International Workshop on PROfiling LINGuistic KNOWledgE gRaphs (ProLingKNOWER)

1st International Workshop on PROfiling LINGuistic KNOWledgE gRaphs (ProLingKNOWER)


The Cost Action CA18209 NexusLinguarum (https://nexuslinguarum.eu) is glad to announce the Workshop on PROfiling LINGuistic KNOWledgE gRaphs - ProLingKnower. Due to restrictions from Covid-19, the workshop will be held in a hybrid mode, so speakers and attendees can choose to participate on-site or online.

Summary:

The focus of this workshop is to reveal novel approaches, methodologies, and frameworks on profiling Linguistic Linked Data (LLD) (corpora, lexicons, ontologies, etc.) as well as to highlight tools and user interfaces that can effectively assist different use cases for profiling such data. In addition, the workshop seeks methodologies that help effective profiling in building real-world Linked Data applications leveraging linguistic data, as well as use cases that reveal success stories or aspects that have been neglected so far. The benefits of addressing Linguistic Linked Data profiling issues will not only help in understanding and exploring such data, but also provide the means to increase Linguistic Linked Data consumption and to maintain track of the evolution of the relevant datasets.

The proposed workshop seeks application-oriented papers, as well as more theoretical papers and position papers. The workshop proposes a multidisciplinary discussion on the following themes, with a focus on RDF data. Main topics but not limited to:

  • Linguistic data profiling tools and algorithms
  • Linguistic data summarisation
  • Ontology and data quality evaluation for linguistic data
  • Fusing and refining linguistics profiling results
  • Scalable approaches for linguistic profiles generation
  • SHACL shapes as means for profiling
  • Topic profiling for linguistic data
  • Semantic profiles representation of linguistic data

Submission:

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. We welcome the following types of contributions:

  • Short (up to 5 pages) and full (up to 10 pages) research papers
  • Industry and use case presentations (up to 5 pages)
  • Tool and system demonstrations should not exceed 4 pages
  • Position papers (up to 4 pages)

Submissions must be in English as PDF, formatted in the style of the Springer Publications format for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) and submitted electronically via easychair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=prolingknower2022).

In case there will be sufficient papers accepted at the workshop, the organizing committee will propose a special issue on a journal relevant to the topics of the workshop.
