ISWC 2025: Extended Deadline for Challenge Proposals
ISWC 2025 extends the deadline for challenge proposals to March 4, 2025. Propose challenges in various Semantic Web topics to advance the field.
The 24th International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2025) is extending the deadline for challenge proposals to March 4, 2025. The conference, held in Nara, Japan from November 2-6, 2025, invites proposals for challenges that advance the state of the art in the Semantic Web domain.
Topics for challenge proposals include:
- Ontology and knowledge graph alignment
- Ontology and knowledge graph quality assurance (QA)
- Knowledge graph construction and refinement
- Graph embeddings and graph neural networks
- Query and reasoning scalability
- Open information extraction
- Neurosymbolic reasoning
- Semantic Web and data mining
- Semantic Web, machine learning, and neuro-symbolic AI
- Link prediction
- Question answering
- Stream processing and reasoning
- Semantic table understanding
- Agents (especially using neuro-symbolic methods) and agentic workflows
- Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG)
To propose a challenge, you must:
- Specify a task to be addressed
- Provide an evaluation dataset
- Define evaluation measures to compare the performance of participating systems
