LOD 2016 - 5th Workshop on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining Meets Linked Open Data

This workshop will join two successful series of past events. It follows the first four editions of Know-AT-LOD at ESWC 2012, 2013, 2104, and 2015, each of which were attended by 25 or more participants, respectively, with the last two editions being among the most frequently visited ESWC workshops overall, as well as the Data Mining on Linked Data (DMoLD) workshop, which was held at ECML/PKDD 2013 with around 40 participants. Besides a track for research papers, the workshop will host the fourth Linked Data Mining Challenge (the first having been at DMoLD, the second and third at Know-AT-LOD). Drawing from the experience of three such challenges, we will prepare an interesting task and dataset, and announce it early to allow the development of high quality solutions. We will hand out prizes for both the best challenge entry and the best regular workshop paper.
We hope to continue these series in the context of ESWC 2016. Given the experience of the past years, Know-AT-LOD 2016 is planned as a full-day workshop. The proceedings of the workshop will be published with CEUR-WS.
