<div>Overview</div>
<div>------------</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>FMKD@JOWO intends to create a space of confluence and a forum for discussion for researchers interested in knowledge diversity in a wide sense, including diversity in terms of diverging perspectives, different beliefs, semantic heterogeneity and others.
The importance of understanding and handling the different forms of diversity that manifest between knowledge formalisations (ontologies, knowledge bases, or knowledge graphs) is widely recognised and has led to the proposal of a variety of systems of representation, tackling
overlapping aspects of this phenomenon.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Besides understanding the phenomenon and considering formal models for the representation of knowledge diversity, we are interested in the variety of reasoning problems that emerge in this context, including jointly reasoning with possibly conflicting
sources, interpreting knowledge from alternative viewpoints, consolidating the diversity as uncertainty, reasoning by means of argumentation between the sources and pursuing knowledge aggregations among others.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A non-exhaustive list of topics of interest for the workshop:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- Philosophical and cognitive analysis of knowledge diversity.</span><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- Formal models for the representation of knowledge diversity.</span><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- Ontological approaches capturing multiple perspectives and viewpoints.</span><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- Context and concept formation in such systems.</span><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- Consistency (or not) in multi-perspective systems; assessment and mitigation of inconsistencies.</span><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- Communication between knowledge-diverse systems.</span><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- Argumentation-based approaches for dealing with inconsistency</span><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- Aggregation of diverse or inconsistent knowledge; judgement aggregation.</span><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- Uncertainty in the context of knowledge diversity.</span><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- Applications of formal models of knowledge diversity.</span><br>
</div>
