Deep Knowledge Representation Challenge Workshop

Workshop website: https://sites.google.com/site/dkrckcap2011/

Co-located with K-CAP 2011 <http://kcap11.stanford.edu/>
Date: June 26, 2011
Location: Banff, Alberta, Canada
Format: Full-Day Workshop

This workshop will provide a forum to discuss difficult problems in 
representing complex knowledge needed to support deep reasoning,
question answering, explanation and justification systems.  The goals of 
the workshop are: (1) to create a comprehensive set of
knowledge representation (KR) challenge problems suitable for a 
recurring competition, and (2) begin to develop KR techniques to meet
those challenges.  A set of difficult to represent sentences from a 
biology textbook 
<http://www.amazon.com/Biology-Jane-B-Reece/dp/0805366245/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1300914815&sr=8-1>areincluded<https://sites.google.com/site/dkrckcap2011/challenges>as 
an initial set of KR challenges.
Cash prizes will be awarded for the most creative and comprehensive 
solutions to the selected challenges.

The workshop will be a highly interactive event with brief presentations 
of problems and solutions followed by group discussion.
To submit a paper to the workshops, the participants should select a 
subset of the challenge sentences and present approaches
  for representing them along with an approach to use that 
representation in a problem solving task (question answering or decision 
support).
   Participants are free to add to the list of challenge sentences, for 
example, from other chapters of the textbook, or within the spirit of
their own projects and experience but should base their suggestions on 
concrete examples, if possible, from real applications.
