9:30-10:00: KEYNOTE: Knowledge Graph Completion and Enrichment in OntoSides using Text Mining. Marie-Christine Rousset (Professor, Laboratoire d’Informatique de Grenoble, senior member of Institut Universitaire de France)

Abstract: Knowledge graph completion and enrichment have become problems of increasing interest for which several supervised and unsupervised techniques have been investigated. The completion and enrichment problems that we consider in this paper target relations of interest guided by the needs in data analytics of domain experts. Our methodology relies on exploiting textual information found in knowledge graphs and consists in experimentally choosing the most appropriate text models and text mining techniques to achieve high precision which is a strong requirement for accurate data analytics. This methodology is illustrated and evaluated on OntoSIDES which is a big knowledge graph at the core of a learning management system used in medical studies in France.

Aims and scope.

Text are important sources of information and communication in diverse domains. The intelligent, efficient and secure use of this information requires, in most cases, the transformation of unstructured textual data into data sets with some structure, and organized according to an appropriate schema that follows the semantics of an application domain. Indeed, solving the problems of modern society requires interdisciplinary research and information cross-referencing, thus surpassing the simple provision of unstructured data. There is a need for representations that are more flexible, subtle and context-sensitive, which can also be easily accessible via consultation tools and evolve according to these principles. In this context, consultation requires robust and efficient processing of requests, which may involve information analysis, with quality, consistency, and privacy preservation guarantees. Knowledge bases can be built as these new generation infrastructures which support data science queries on a user-friendly framework and are capable of providing the required machinery for advised decision-making.

The workshop focuses on transforming data into information and then into knowledge. The idea is to gather researchers in NLP (Natural Language Processing), DB (Databases), and AI (Artificial Intelligence) to discuss two main problems :

  • how to extract information from textual data and represent it in knowledge bases;
  • how to propose intelligent methods for handling and maintaining these databases with new forms of requests, including efficient, flexible, and secure analysis mechanisms, adapted to the user, and with quality and privacy preservation guarantees.

This workshop focuses on all aspects concerning these modern infrastructures, giving particular attention (but not limited to) to data related to health and environmental domains.

Topics of interest.

We invite the submission of work-in-progress research addressing various aspects of information extraction from textual data, intelligent and efficient interrogation, and maintenance of knowledge bases. The workshop welcomes submissions of theoretical, technical, experimental, methodological papers, application papers, position papers and papers on experience reports addressing – though not limited to – the following topics:

  • Artificial intelligence in databases and information systems
  • Data curation, annotation, and provenance

Submissions

DOING workshop intends to accept short (limited to 6 pages) or long (limited to 12 pages) papers. DOING reserves the right to accept only as short papers those papers describing interesting and innovative ideas which still require further technical development. Papers should be written in English, formatted in Latex and present substantially original results. Authors should consult Springer’s authors’ guidelines and use their proceedings templates (you can download the templates available on the bottom of that page).

Accepted papers will be published in the Springer CCIS series and the best papers will be invited to a special issue of the journal Computer Science and Information Systems.

Papers must be submitted via Easy Chair.
