The Ontology Summit 2025 has had two exciting presentations by Nicola Guarino and Giancarlo Guizzardi. The next summit session will be on Wednesday 5 February 2025 at Noon US/Canada Eastern Time and will feature
Michael Gruninger
who will be presenting
The Heirs of Hilbert's Sixth Problem
This provocative subject is one you don't want to miss!
The session will be on Zoom at
https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88593616861?pwd=HafnK0yB7PFDK1EyiUyQRDKanZlbjU.1
For the time in your time zone see https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?month=2&day=5&year=2025&hour=12&min=00&sec=0&p1=179
The web page for the session is available at https://ontologforum.com/index.php/ConferenceCall_2025_02_05
Abstract: In an address to the International Congress on Mathematicians in 1900, David Hilbert posed twenty-three challenge problems, in areas ranging from logic to number theory and partial differential equations. These problems have had a profound impact on research in mathematics. However, the sixth problem posed by Hilbert has never been adequately addressed: "Mathematical treatment of the axioms of physics: The investigations on the foundations of geometry suggest the problem: To treat in the same manner, by means of axioms, those physical sciences in which mathematics plays an important part." This talk will explore the ways in which ontologies are the axiomatic theories required by Hilbert as a solution to his Sixth Problem. It will also consider how the methodology for evaluating scientific theories can be applied to the problem of empirical evaluation of ontologies.
In case you are unable to attend, all summit sessions are recorded and posted on the session web page (usually within a day or two). The recording will also be posted on the Ontology Summit YouTube channel.
