15th Seminar on Ontology Research in Brazil — ONTOBRAS 2022

November 22-25, 2022

Online and Open

https://www.inf.ufrgs.br/ontobras


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ABOUT

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The Seminar on Ontology Research in Brazil (ONTOBRAS) is a scientific venue for researchers and practitioners from computer and information science to discuss theories, methodologies, languages, tools, and experiences related to the theory and practice of ontologies. In addition, Master's and Ph.D. students whose research is focused on Ontologies will find in the Doctoral and Masters Consortium on Ontologies (WTDO) the opportunity to present and discuss their proposals with experts in the field – a valuable opportunity to receive feedback on their research and network within the community. Likewise, through the Tutorials Track. Students, practitioners, and lecturers will have the opportunity to learn techniques and tools used by the community.


In its 15th edition, ONTOBRAS 2022 is recognized by the Brazilian ontology community as a unique and highly qualified forum for the presentation and discussion of ontologies and application cases in Brazil. The WTDO is in its 6th edition and has been consolidating itself as a rich space for discussion among researchers of different generations, contributing to the expansion and renewal of the community of ontology researchers in Brazil. This year, with the tutorials track, participants will also have the opportunity to learn state-of-the-art ontology techniques and tools.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TOPICS

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


We list in a non-exhaustive way areas and research communities from which we expect to receive submissions:

 - Conceptual modeling: conceptual methods and tools for the formal representation of concepts in ontologies.

 - Information Science: construction and use of taxonomies, thesauri, knowledge organization systems, information indexing, and other applications.

 - Logic and Reasoning: formal representation languages and systems applied to representation and reasoning with ontologies.

 - Philosophy: philosophical aspects that underlie ontological modeling, top ontologies, mereology, essence and identity, and others.

 - Software engineering: ontology representation languages, system architecture, methodologies for developing ontology-based systems.

 - Linguistics and natural language processing: concept extraction, meaning determination.


Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit theoretical, technical, and practical research contributions that directly or indirectly deal with the areas listed above. We welcome papers ranging from philosophical and theoretical foundations to new technologies and innovative applications.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TRACKS

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


ONTOBRAS 2022 welcomes submissions for the following tracks:

 - Main track: full and short papers presenting theoretical, technical, and practical research contributions that directly or indirectly deal with the following areas: conceptual modeling, information science, logic and reasoning, philosophy, software engineering, linguistics and natural language.

 - Workshop on Theses and Dissertations on Ontology (WTDO): papers describing research proposals, at the master's or doctoral level, whose theses and dissertations have not been concluded by the date of the event.

 - Tutorials: teaching and training of techniques and tools of broad interest to the community.

ONTOLOGY CHALLENGE ONTOBRAS 2022 - PORTUGUESE

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


ONTOBRAS 2022 is offering an ontology challenge, the Ontology Challenge, in the context of the GO FAIR Brazil initiative (https://www.go-fair-brasil.org/), which aims to improve data management approaches through the adoption of Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR) data principles, where ontologies are key elements to address these principles and in particular for semantic interoperability.


Proposals can be submitted until November 16, 2022, and the winners will be offered free registration for ONTOBRAS 2023 and will be considered for a collaboration grant with the BrCris project (Current Research Information Systems - Brazil).
