* 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
