日本データベース学会の皆様 NICTの加藤と申します. 先日,人工知能学会全国大会併設の国際ワークショップWorkshop on Information Credibility on the Web (WICOW)の論文募集について案内させて頂 きましたが,期日が近づいて参りましたので,再び案内させて頂きます. ブログやSNSの普及による情報発信コストの低下に伴い,User Generated Contentと呼ばれる情報が大量に流通するようになるなかで,Webで得られる情報 の信頼性の問題はますます重要になってきています.本ワークショップでは, 「情報の信頼性」の問題について様々なアプローチで取り組んでいる内外の研究 者が一堂に会して,議論を深める場に出来ればと考えております. 招待講演として,Microsoft Research AsiaのYunbo Cao博士を招いて,特定のト ピックの専門家を検索するというExpert Searchの研究について講演して頂く予 定にしております. 皆様の投稿をお待ちしております. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ** Apologies if you have already received a copy of this announcement ** ** Please forward to anyone who might be interested ** CALL FOR PAPERS for The 1st Workshop on Information Credibility on the Web (WICOW) in conjunction with The 21st Annual Conference of the Japanese Society for Artificial Intelligence June 18 and/or 19, 2007, Miyazaki, Japan http://kc.nict.go.jp/wicow/ Cohosted by The Japanese Society for Artificial Intelligence and The National Institute of Information and Communications Technology <Description> As computers and computer networks become more sophisticated, a huge amount of text-based information, such as that found in web documents, emails, and business related documents has been accumulated and circulated. Such information gives people a framework for organizing their daily life. Moreover, this information is starting to have a strong influence on governmental policy, and how businesses are managed. A well-functioning society needs technology that can be used to manage this wealth of text-based information. This technology would be able to handle a wide range of tasks: extracting credible information related to a given topic (particularly when the query has returned answers from large documents); organizing this information; clarifying the background, the facts, and the various opinions and the distribution of them, and so on. The aim of this workshop is to provide a forum for discussion on issues related to information credibility criteria. <Areas of Interest> The workshop will focus on how to evaluate the credibility of information. In particular, contributions will be solicited which address, but are not limited to, the following areas of interest: * Information content analysis for credibility evaluation (topic extraction, opinion analysis, etc.). * Identification and characterization of the sender to enable the user to evaluate their credibility. * Information credibility evaluation based on superficial characteristics of information. * Information credibility evaluation based on reputation. * Information credibility evaluation for user-generated content (blogs, SNSs, etc.). * The relationship between information credibility evaluation and the concepts of trust and credibility. * Sociological aspects of information credibility. * Psychological aspects of information credibility. * Utilization of social networks for information credibility evaluation. * Issues concerning credibility of grassroots/citizen journalism. * Establishing information dissemination processes that promote the dissemination of credible information. <Important Dates> * March 30, 2007 Deadline for paper submissions * April 13, 2007 Notification * April 27, 2007 Deadline for camera-ready versions <Workshop Chairs> Sadao Kurohashi Department of Intelligence Science and Technology Kyoto University Sakyo, Kyoto, 606-8501, Japan kuro (at) i.kyoto-u.ac.jp http://nlp.kuee.kyoto-u.ac.jp/~kuro/ Kentaro Inui Graduate School of Information Science Nara Institute of Science and Technology Keihanna, Nara, 630-0192, Japan inui (at) is.aist-nara.ac.jp http://cl.aist-nara.ac.jp/~inui/ Yoshikiyo Kato Knowledge Creating Communication Research Center National Institute of Information and Communications Technology 3-5 Hikaridai, Seika, Soraku, Kyoto 619-0289, Japan ykato (at) nict.go.jp http://kc.nict.go.jp/ykato/ <Program Committee> * Kentaro Inui (Nara Institute of Science and Technology, Japan) * Yoshikiyo Kato (National Institute of Information and Communications Technology, Japan) * Sadao Kurohashi (Kyoto University, Japan) * Hang Li (Microsoft Research Asia) * Yutaka Matsuo (National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, Japan) * Hisashi Miyamori (National Institute of Information and Communications Technology, Japan) * Manabu Okumura (Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan) * Noboru Sonehara (National Institute of Informatics, Japan) * Hideaki Takeda (National Institute of Informatics, Japan) * Katsumi Tanaka (Kyoto University, Japan) (List not yet complete)
