[apologies for possible multiple copies] Call for Participation --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13th International Conference on Logic Programming and Non-monotonic Reasoning LPNMR 2015 http://lpnmr2015.mat.unical.it/ Lexington, KY, USA September 27-30, 2015 (Collocated with the 4th Conference on Algorithmic Decision Theory 2015) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- REGISTRATION Registration procedure is available via http://www.cs.uky.edu/lpnmr2015/. Early registration closes before the end of July. AIMS AND SCOPE LPNMR 2015 is the thirteenth in the series of international meetings on logic programming and non-monotonic reasoning. LPNMR is a forum for exchanging ideas on declarative logic programming, non-monotonic reasoning, and knowledge representation. The aim of the conference is to facilitate interactions between researchers and practitioners interested in the design and implementation of logic-based programming languages and database systems, and those working in knowledge representation and nonmonotonic reasoning. LPNMR strives to encompass theoretical and experimental studies that have led or will lead to the construction of systems for declarative programming and knowledge representation, as well as their use in practical applications. LPNMR 2015 The program will include three invited talks: - Stable Models for Temporal Theories - By Pedro Cabalar, University of Corunna, Spain - Algorithmic decision theory meets logic - By Jérôme Lang, Université Paris-Dauphine, France (Plenary session with ADT 2015). - Relational and Semantic Data Mining - By Nada Lavrač, Jožef Stefan Institute and University of Nova Gorica, Slovenia This edition of LPNMR will also feature several workshops, a special session dedicated to the 6th ASP Systems Competition, and will be collocated with the 4th Algorithmic Decision Theory Conference, ADT 2015. Joint LPNMR-ADT Doctoral Consortium will be a part of the program. Some details follow; full info are available via the official conference website http://lpnmr2015.mat.unical.it/. ASSOCIATED EVENTS WORKSHOPS - LPNMR 2015 will include specialized workshops to be held on September 27 prior to the main conference. Currently planned workshops include: - Grounding, Transforming, and Modularizing Theories with Variables Organizers: Marc Denecker, Tomi Janhunen Website: https://sites.google.com/site/gttv2015/ - Action Languages, Process Modeling, and Policy Reasoning Organizer: Joohyung Lee, Gail-Joon Ahn Website: https://sites.google.com/site/alpp2015/ - Natural Language Processing and Automated Reasoning Organizers: Marcello Balduccini, Ekaterina Ovchinnikova, Peter Schueller Website: https://sites.google.com/site/nlpar2015/ - Learning and Nonmonotonic Reasoning Organizers: Alessandra Russo and Alessandra Mileo Website: http://lnmr2015.insight-centre.org/ ASP COMPETITION - A special session dedicated to a discussion of the 6th ASP System Competition, including the methodology of the competition, benchmarks used, lessons learned and, most importantly, the results and the announcement of the winners. ALGORITHMIC DECISION THEORY (ADT) 2015 (collocated - same time and place) Algorithmic Decision Theory is a vibrant and growing area of research concerned with algorithmic aspects of problems arising in social choice and economics that involve optimal ways to aggregate preferences. The area abounds in hard computational problems and may be an axciting area of applications for ASP. The two conferences will seek ways to identify and promote synergies between their respective areas of focus. JOINT LPNMR-ADT DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM: co-Chairs: - Esra Erdem (LPNMR), Sabanci University, Turkey - Nick Mattei (ADT), NICTA, Australia More info: http://lpnmr2015.mat.unical.it/associated-events/adt-lpnmr-2015-doctoral-consortium STUDENT SUPPORT GRANTS The organizing committee has limited funds to partially support students attending LPNMR, with priority to authors of accepted papers that are not funded by the doctoral consortium and have no other funding available. The funding will cover registration and partially cover stay in the conference hotel or some other hotel located nearby (the exact number of free nights to be determined). Applicants should submit their requests to lpnmr2015@mat.unical.it. A proof of student status is requested. NOTE: Students planning to request financial aid should directly contact Miroslaw Truszczynski <mirek@cs.uky.edu> before they register. COMPLIMENTARY MEMBERSHIP OFFER FOR CONFERENCE REGISTRANTS NEW TO AAAI LPNMR 2015 is pleased to acknowledge its cooperation with the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) [http://www.aaai.org], which will be publicizing the conference to its membership. Of special interest to conference attendees is an introductory membership offer from AAAI, which provides a complimentary 1-year online membership to conference participants who are new to AAAI. Please send a message to membership15@aaai.org for further details. VENUE Lexington is a medium size, pleasant and quiet university town. It is located in the heart of the so-called Bluegrass Region in Central Kentucky. The city is surrounded by beautiful horse farms on green pastures dotted with ponds and traditional architecture stables, and small race tracks, and bordered by white or black fences. The Horse Museum is as beautifully located as it is interesting. Overall, the city has a nice feel that mixes well old and new. The conference will be held in the Hilton Lexington Downtown hotel.
