Qurator 2020 – Conference on Digital Curation Technologies
20-21 January 2020, Berlin, Germany
https://qurator.ai/conference-qurator-2020/call-for-papers/
***** News ***** keynote by Prof. Dr. Sören Auer (director Leibniz
Information Centre for
Science and Technology and University Library) about Knowledge
Curation in
the Open Research Knowledge Graph
Digital curation is a complex time and knowledge intensive
process, in which
knowledge workers create new content artifacts and knowledge
insights from
heterogeneous sources (content, data, knowledge). The work
required for this
includes, e.g., selecting, summarizing, scheduling, translating,
localising,
structuring, condensing, enriching, visualizing and explaining the
various
contents, taking into account the steadily growing speed, volume
and number
of sources such as online newspapers, news portals, social media,
linked
data, business information systems, IoT data streams etc. AI, in
particular
from the field of language and semantic knowledge technologies,
are used to
support these tasks and thereby accelerate and qualitatively
improve them.
The conference provides a forum on the use of digital curation
technologies
in application domains for, e.g., media, journalism, logistics,
cultural
heritage, health care and life sciences, energy, industry. Of
particular
relevance are papers that demonstrate the applied use of digital
curation
technologies and tools in domain-specific use cases and that
bridge
traditional boundaries between disciplines such as Artificial
Intelligence
and Semantic Web, data analytics and machine learning,
information/content
and knowledge management systems, information retrieval, knowledge
discovery, and computational linguistics.
