To: Gerson Zaverucha <[email protected]>


Dear Gerson,

Please find below a second call for paper and the latest news.

There will be three best papers awards:
- A best paper award, for a regular paper,, sponsored by Springer
- A best student award for a regular paper and a second best student award
for late-breaking paper sponsored by Machine Learning Journal. In each
case, the first author must be a student at the time paper is submitted.

Our invited speakers are:
- Marc Boulle, Orange Labs France
- Alan Bundy, University of Edinburgh U.K.
- Jennifer Neville, Purdue University U.S.A.
- Mathias Niepert, NEC Labs Europe Germany

Best regards,

  Christel and Nicolas

CALL FOR PAPERS

The 27th International Conference on Inductive Logic Programming (ILP 2017)
will be held in Orléans, France, September 4th - 6th.

https://ilp2017.sciencesconf.org

Originally focused on induction of logic programs, ILP has broadened its
scope and attracted a lot of attention and interest in recent years.

Invited speakers are:
- Marc Boulle, Orange Labs France
- Alan Bundy, University of Edinburgh U.K.
- Jennifer Neville, Purdue University U.S.A.
- Mathias Niepert, NEC Labs Europe Germany

Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original results on all
aspects of learning in logic, multi-relational learning and data mining,
statistical relational learning, graph and tree mining, relational
reinforcement learning, connections with other learning paradigms, and
learning in other logic-based knowledge representation frameworks.

Typical, but not exclusive, topics of interest for submissions include:

- Theoretical aspects: logical foundations, probabilistic logic-based
learning, computational and/or statistical learning theories, theories on
abduction, data/model representation, …

- Representations and languages for logic-based learning: subsets of
first-order logic (datalog, description logics for instance),  higher-order
logic, probabilistic logical representations, links between alternative
representations.

- Algorithms and systems:
  - supervised/unsupervised/semi-supervised relational learning, relational
reinforcement learning, abductive learning, inductive databases
  - learning from structured data (e.g., labeled graphs, tree patterns) and
semi-structured data (e.g., XML documents),
  - logical, probabilistic and statistical approaches ; distance and
kernel-based methods; propositionalization; predicate invention;
  - systems that implement inductive logic programming algorithms with
special emphasis on issues like efficiency and scalability.

- Applications of ILP:
  - bioinformatics, cheminformatics, medical informatics, robotics,
engineering
  - natural language processing: computational linguistics, text/web mining
  - social science, art and humanities, games, social networks

We solicit three kinds of papers:

1) Regular papers describing original mature work representing a
self-contained theoretical contribution and/or containing appropriate
experimental evaluation. These papers will be reviewed by at least 3
members of the program committee. Each accepted paper will be given a
standard time slot for presentation and will be invited to submit a final
version to the Springer LNAI post-conference proceedings without further
reviews.

In case the paper is not accepted as a long paper, it may be accepted as a
work-in-progress paper, in which case it will be assigned a reduced time
slot for presentation, and the authors have the opportunity to submit a
revised version that will be reviewed after the conference for possible
inclusion in the Springer LNAI post-conference proceedings.

Long papers must not exceed 12 pages (including references).

2) Late-breaking papers describing original work in progress, brief
accounts of original ideas without conclusive experimental evaluation, and
other relevant work of potentially high scientific interest but not yet
qualifying for the long paper category. Late-breaking papers will be
accepted/rejected by PC chairs on the grounds of relevance. Authors of
accepted late-breaking papers will be assigned a reduced time slot for
presentation.

Each late-breaking paper will then be reviewed by at least 3 members of the
program committee taking also into account the oral presentation. Based on
these reviews, the authors may be given the opportunity to submit a long
version for the Springer LNAI post-conference proceedings. In this case,
the long paper will be reviewed again by the assigned PC members of the
short paper and be finally accepted if satisfactorily addressing the
reviewer's requirements.

Late-breaking papers must not exceed 6 pages (including references).

3) Papers relevant to the conference topics and recently published or
accepted for publication by a first-class conference such as ECML/ PKDD,
ICML, KDD, ICDM, AAAI, IJCAI, etc. or journal such as MLJ, DMKD, JMLR etc.
The PC chairs will accept/reject such papers on the grounds of relevance
and quality of the original publication venue. Authors of accepted papers
will be assigned a reduced time slot for presentation. These papers will
not appear in the Springer LNAI post-conference proceedings.

AWARDS:

There will be a best paper award and two best student paper awards,
respectively sponsored by Springer and by the Machine Learning Journal.

SUBMISSION:

Submissions in category 1 or 2 must not have been published or be under
review for a journal or for another conference. They should be submitted in
the Springer LNCS format, following Springer LNCS author instructions,
http://www.springer.com/comp/lncs/Authors.html.

Long (late-breaking) papers must not exceed 12 (6) pages, including title
page, references and figures.

Papers in category 3 should be submitted in their original format and the
authors should indicate the original publication venue.

All Paper submissions will be electronic through the ILP 2017 easychair
site:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ilp2017

A special issue of a journal is planned following the conference. It will
be opened to everyone. This special issue welcomes conference submissions
from all the three categories above, which should be significantly revised
and extended to meet the journal criteria. They will be reviewed by the
Program Committee.

DATES
Abstract registration (long paper): 28 April 2017
Long paper submission: 5 May 2017
Long paper notification: 9 June 2017
Late-breaking and previously published paper submission: 28 June 2017
Late-breaking and previously published paper notification: 3 July 2017
