Call for Participation
3RD EUROPEAN KNOWLEDGE ACQUISITION FOR
KNOWLEDGE-BASED SYSTEMS WORKSHOP - EKAW89
3-7 July 1989, Paris, France
EKAW89 is concerned with the acquisition of knowledge for practical
knowledge-based systems. The workshop will be in two parts: a two-day open
meeting and a three-day closed workshop. The closed workshop will be
limited to 40 participants, one author for each paper accepted. Some
papers will be presented at the open meeting and the remainder in the
closed workshop.
Papers are invited for consideration on all aspects of knowledge
acquisition for knowledge-based systems, including (but not restricted to):
o Elicitation/modeling of expertise - systems that obtain and model
knowledge from experts.
o Elicitation/modeling of expertise - manual knowledge acquisition methods
and techniques.
o Apprenticeship, explanation-based, and other learning systems;
integration of such systems with other knowledge acquisition techniques.
o Issues in cognition and expertise that affect the knowledge acquisition
process.
o Extracting and modeling of knowledge from text.
o Integration of knowledge acquisition techniques within a single system;
integration of knowledge acquisition systems with other systems (hypermedia,
database management systems, simulators, spreadsheets).
o Knowledge acquisition methodology and training.
o Validation of knowledge acquisition techniques; the role of knowledge
acquisition techniques in validating knowledge-based systems.
Five copies of an extended abstract (8 pages) or a full-length paper (up to
20 pages) should be sent to Jean-Gabriel Ganascia before January 25th, 1989.
Acceptance notices will be mailed by April 9th. Camera-ready copies
should be returned before May 16th 1989. A preprint volume will be
distributed at the workshop.
