Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the amount of data that various web applications have to manage has grown rapidly. Semantic web technologies provide intelligent ways to manage large volumes of data. These ways can include search engines, intelligent agents, push systems, etc. The representation used by the semantic web is based on ontologies. In recent years, there are many implementations of ontologies in many application fields. These ontologies can contain tens of thousands of classes each. Therefore, effective ways of managing them are needed.
Topics (but not limited):
- Knowledge representation and reasoning;
- Ontology development and enrichment;
- Ontology and linked data set quality assurance;
- Semantic harmonization and ontology alignment;
- Knowledge graphs;
- Knowledge representation systems in life sciences and medicine;
- NLP and text mining using semantic technologies;
- Novel approaches for data integration of heterogeneous data sources;
- Novel tools and ontologies for data interpretation and visualization;
- Deep learning and semantic technologies;
- Real-world ontology-based applications;
- Methods and tools for the FAIRification of datasets;
- Artificial intelligence techniques for the Semantic Web;
- Ontologies and semantic web for decision support;
- Semantic technologies and AI explainability;
- Ontology summarization.
