Call for Papers: http://www.iaria.org/conferences2018/CfPeKNOW18.html
Knowledge fundamentals
Knowledge acquisition, processing, and management; Linguistic knowledge
representation; Knowledge modeling and virtualization; Types of knowledge:
structural, behavioral, relationships, etc.; Knowledge representation:
visual-picture, connectionist model, semi-structured [a la workflow],
structured/formal; Knowledge acquisition status: potential new knowledge,
guessed semantics, confirmed semantics, auditing confirmed semantics, etc.;
Knowledge update: probable insertion, validated insertion, auditing the
insertion periodically based on new knowledge, etc.

(multilingual, semantic, shared, open, prosody, etc.); Annotation as a Service
(AaaS); Handling argument-based knowledge; Event-based knowledge; Tagging and
supertagging; Extraction patterns; Uncertain reasoning; Visual error analysis;
Domain-specific paraphrase extraction; Tweets and sentence compression; Role
labeling semantic; Heterogeneous annotations

for blind and/or visually impaired people); Sentiment classification (emotion,
irony, sarcasm, rhetorical questions, opinion, etc.); Rumor dynamics and social
media; Contextual pragmatic models;; Social prediction; Prediction semantic

Concept-based classification and ranking; KM design for life long learning and
long term uses
Knowledge identification and discovery
Mining for knowledge; Knowledge identification: semantic-ID, etc.; Knowledge
