AIWK 2014 - International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence meets Web of Knowledge (AIWK)

The aim of this workshop is to bridge the gap between Knowledge Representation & Reasoning and Web of Knowledge research communities to address the problem of querying large scale multisource heterogeneous information which is the core of the ANR ASPIQ project (http://aspiq.lsis.org). This problem is centered on three main aspects:
Processing multisource information
Processing heterogeneous information
Performing large scale reasoning
These issues are relevant to the Semantic web. From a large amount of data distributed on the web expressed according to different
languages we look for a formalism which allows for representing exceptions in taxonomies and uncertainty on concepts, to then merge the information represented in this common formalism for providing a global point of view in order to query and obtain more "intelligent" answers, without loosing efficiency.
Accordingly, this workshop is dedicated to discuss these issues in order to encourage collaboration of reasearchers from both communities. We are primarily interested in belief change, merging and query answering of ontological knowledge bases expressed in tractable fragments of ontology languages. Moreover, for implementation issues we are primarily interested in logic programming approaches such as Answer Set Programming or Datalog.
