* Context: Today, with the spread of misinformation, automatically verifying textual claims against public data is crucial. Indeed, manual verification takes time and is expensive and fails to scale to a large volume of verified claims. AI, with the help of progress in natural language processing and natural language generation, will help toward advancements in textual understanding. Nevertheless, matching textual claims with tabular data is still challenging.
This Special Issue aims not only to collect the latest applications of AI techniques to computational and automated fact checking, but also to collect advancements in the field of information retrieval and query answering.
* Topics: - fact checking - computational fact checking - automatic fact checking - artificial intelligence - deep learning - NLP - information retrieval - query answering
* Manuscript Submission Information: We welcome three types of research contributions: - Full research papers describing a novel contribution to the field (up to 25 pages) - Experience papers discussing important lessons learned (up to 20 pages) - Vision and Challenge papers (up to 7 pages) - Survey papers (up to 30 pages)
* Submission Format: Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process.
* Deadline for manuscript submissions: 15 August 2022
