The next LLLL (LLLL 2006) will be held on June 2006 at Tokyo !


Workshop on Learning with Logics and Logics for Learning (LLLL)

June 13-14, 2005
The Kitakyushu International Conference Center, Kitakyushu, Japan

Collocated with the 19th Annual Conference of the Japanese Society for Artificial Intelligence (June 15-16, 2005).
The announcement of other collocated workshops is here.

This workshp is supported by SIG-FPAI of JSAI, chaired by Prof. Ken Satoh (NII, Japan).

The workshop LLLL has been finished in successful.
We would thank to the invited speakers, Prof. Roni Khardon and Prof. Luc De Raedt,
all Program Commitee members, all speakers and all audiences.


Scope
Logic is a fundamental and useful representation for knowledge in Artificial Intelligence. In the area of Machine Learning, various types of computational logic, such as logic programs, first-order logic, description logic, higher-order logic, have developed by incorporating with various types of learning methdologies including identification in the limit, PAC learning, on-line learning, query learning, machine discovery, and learning based on Bayesian networks. On the other hand, machine learning procedures frequently provide semantics to logic and foundations of some procedures in mathematics.

This workshop is proposed to bring together researchers who are interested in both of the areas of machine learning and computational logic, and to have intensive discussions on various relations between the two with making their interchange more active.

Topics

   Learning and knowledge discovery using logics
   Logics (including probablistic logic and stochastic logic) for machine learning and knowledge discovery
   Logics using machine learning
   Machine learning as a foundation of mathematics/mathematical procedures
   Learning and knowledge discovery from relational data
   Learning and knowledge discovery from structured/semi-structured data
   Algorithmic aspects of learning based on logics


Submission
Authors are invied to submit ther papers electronically in PostScript or PDF format are accepted. Please send your paper as a PostScript or PDF file to : akihiro (at) i.kyoto-u.ac.jp and hirata (at) ai.kyutech.ac.jp (both)
Submitted papers should consist of the maximum of 7 pages with the LaTeX style file (downloaded here).

The working note (proceedings) with ISBN  will be published by JSAI for the workshop, and some outstanding papers will be published in a post proceedings book as Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence from Springer, with such papers from other collocated workshops.

Double Submission Policy
Authors can submit a paper to LLLL as an extended abstract if they have submitted it to another conference or workshop, with declaring the double submission. If it is accepted by LLLL, it will be included in the working note for LLLL.

The authors can also submit the full paper to the post-workshop proceedings of LLLL published from Springer. However, the authors MUST withdraw the submission to the other conference, if it is accepted by both the post-workshop proceedings and the other conference.

Important Date
  Deadline of paper submission: March 31, 2005 -> April 6, 2005 (23:59 JST) (extended)
  Notification of acceptance: April 18, 2005 -> April 20, 2005 (extended)
  Deadline of camera ready submission: April 30, 2005
  Workshop: June 13-14
