Call for Papers
PKAW 2002: The 2002 Pacific Rim Knowledge Acquisition Workshop
in conjunction with PRICAI 2002
August 18-19, 2002
National Center of Sciences, Tokyo, Japan
The objective of this workshop is to assemble theoreticians and
practitioners concerned with developing methods and systems that
assist the knowledge acquisition process and assessing the suitability
of such methods. Thus, the workshop includes all aspects of eliciting,
acquiring, discovering, modeling and managing knowledge, and their
role in the construction of knowledge-intensive systems. Knowledge
acquisition still remains the bottleneck for building a
knowledge-based system. Reuse and sharing of knowledge bases are major
issues and no satisfactory solutions have been agreed upon yet. There
is a wide range of research. Much of the work in this field has been
knowledge acquisition from human experts. The advent of the age of
digital information has brought the problem of data overload. Our
ability to analyze and understand massive datasets lags far behind our
ability to gather and store the data. A new generation of
computational techniques and tools are required to support the
acquisition of useful knowledge from the rapidly growing volume of
data. All of these are to be discussed in this workshop.
