CALL FOR PAPERS
5TH KNOWLEDGE ACQUISITION FOR
KNOWLEDGE-BASED SYSTEMS WORKSHOP
Banff, Canada, November 4-9, 1990
A problem in the process of building knowledge-based systems is acquiring and
modeling appropriate problem-solving knowledge. The objective of this
workshop is to assemble theoreticians and practitioners of AI who recognize the
need for developing methods and systems that assist the knowledge acquisition
process.
To encourage vigorous interaction and exchange of ideas the workshop will be
kept small - about 40 participants. There will be individual presentations and
ample time for technical discussions. An attempt will be made to define the
state-of-the-art and future research needs. Attendance will be limited to those
presenting their work, one author per paper.
Papers are invited for consideration in all aspects of knowledge acquisition for
knowledge-based systems, including (but not restricted to):
o Transfer/modeling of expertise - systems that obtain and model knowledge
from experts.
o Transfer/modeling of expertise - manual knowledge acquisition methods and
techniques.
o Apprenticeship, explanation-based, and other learning systems; integration of
such systems with other knowledge acquisition techniques.
o Issues in cognition and expertise that affect the knowledge
acquisition process.
o Methods for capturing design knowledge and requirements.
o Extracting and modeling of knowledge from text.
o Eliciting and modeling knowledge from multiple sources.
o Integration of knowledge acquisition techniques within a single system;
integration of knowledge acquisition systems with other systems (hypermedia,
database management systems, simulators, spreadsheets...).
o Knowledge acquisition methodology and training.
o Validation of knowledge acquisition techniques; the role of knowledge
acquisition techniques in validating knowledge-based systems.
Send five copies of a draft paper (up to 20 pages) to John Boose before
May 16, 1990. Acceptance notices will be mailed by July 18. Full papers (20
pages) should be returned to the chairman by September 17, 1990 so that they
may be bound together for distribution before the workshop.
There will be a travel-and-expense award of up to $500.00 US for the best paper
submitted by a graduate student. Please note if the paper should be considered
for this award.
