KR Test of Time Award: Call for Nominations

The aim of the KR Test of Time Award is to recognize papers published at the KR conference whose contributions have made a significant and lasting impact on the KRR academic discipline and/or the application or adoption of KRR techniques in industry and/or for the betterment of society.

Eligibility

Eligible papers are those that have been published at the KR conference at least 15 years ago.

Nominations

While papers do not need to be nominated to receive the award, the Awards committee welcomes suggestions from KRR researchers of papers that they believe merit consideration for the Test of Time award.

A single person may nominate more than one paper. Self-nominations are not allowed. By default, nominations will be kept and may be used to inform future Awards committees.

How to Submit Nominations

Nominations should be submitted via EasyChair (select the "KR Test of Time Award" track): https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=kr2025

Any text can be added to the Keywords box. A single PDF file (extension .pdf) should be uploaded with a short text (1-2 paragraphs) explaining why the paper merits the award.
