All tracks/topics are open to both research and industry contributions.
Tracks:
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.
Knowledge identification and discovery
Mining for knowledge; Knowledge identification: semantic-ID, etc.;
Knowledge discovery: how to express knowledge requests?, how to find knowledge?, etc.;
Knowledge refinement: after many acquisitions, former knowledge can change semantically or structurally, etc.;
Knowledge clustering
