 4th OPEN Answer Set Programming Competition 2013

  Call for Benchmark Problems

University of Calabria - Vienna University of Technology

 Fall/Winter 2012/2013

 http://aspcomp2013.mat.unical.it/




The 4th Open Answer Set Programming Competition is open to ASP systems and
*any other system* based on a declarative specification paradigm.

The event is currently open and in the Call for Benchmarks stage.


== Call for Benchmark Problems ==

Participants will compete on a selected collection of declarative
specifications of benchmark problems, taken from a variety of domains as
well as real world applications, and instances thereof.

These include, but are not limited to:

- Deductive database tasks on large data-sets
- Sequential and Temporal Planning
- Classic and Applicative graph problems
- Puzzles and Combinatorics
- Scheduling, Timetabling, and other resource allocation problems
- Combinatorial Optimization Problems
- Ontology reasoning
- Automated Theorem Proving and Model Checking
- Reasoning tasks over large propositional instances
- Constraint Programming problems
- Other AI problems

We encourage to provide help by proposing and/or devising new challenging
benchmark problems.

The submission of problems arising from applications of practical impact
are strongly encouraged; problems used in the former ASP Competitions, or
variants thereof, can be re-submitted.

Benchmark authors are expected to produce a problem specification and an
instance set (or a generator thereof). The detailed benchmark problems
submission procedure is available at:

http://www.mat.unical.it/aspcomp2013/BenchmarkSubmission


=== About the ASP Competition Series ===

Answer Set Programming is a well-established paradigm of declarative
programming with close relationship to other declarative modelling
paradigms and languages, such as SAT Modulo Theories, Constraint Handling
Rules, FO(.), PDDL, CASC, and many others.

Since the first informal editions (Dagstuhl 2002 and 2005), ASP systems
compare themselves in the nowadays customary ASP Competition: the 4th ASP
Competition will be run jointly at the University of Calabria (Italy) and
the Vienna University of Technology (Austria), in the first half of 2013.
The event is the sequel to the ASP Competition series, held at the
University of Potsdam (Germany) in 2006-2007, at the University of Leuven
(Belgium) in 2009, and at University of Calabria (Italy) in 2011. The
current competition takes place in cooperation with the 13th International
Conference on Logic Programming and Nonmonotonic Reasoning (LPNMR 2013),
where the results will be announced.

The ASP competition is held as an open tournament. The Model  Solve
competition track fosters the spirit of integration among communities, and
is thus open to all types of solvers: ASP systems, SAT solvers, SMT
solvers, CP systems, FOL theorem provers, Description Logics reasoners,
planning reasoners, or any other. The System competition track is
instead set up on a fixed language based on the answer set semantics.

   ==

 Special edition of the ASP competition series -system track- part of
 the Olympic Games of the Vienna Summer of Logic 2014

 == Important Dates ==

  * March 1st, 2014 : Participant registration opens

  * March 31st, 2014: The competition starts

  * July 22nd, 2014 : Awards are presented at FLoC



Answer Set Programming (ASP) is a well-established paradigm of
declarative programming with close relationship to other declarative
modeling paradigms and languages, such as SAT Modulo Theories,
Constraint Handling Rules, FO(.), PDDL, CASC, and many others.

The ASP Competition is usually a biannual event for evaluating
declarative knowledge representation systems on hard and demanding AI
problems.  Past ASP Competition editions were held at the University of
Potsdam (Germany) in 2007, the University of Leuven (Belgium) in 2009,
the University of Calabria (Italy) in 2011 and the Vienna University of
Technology (Austria) in 2013.

In order to join the Vienna Summer of Logic, which is expected to be
the largest event in the history of logic, we this year depart from the
usual timeline, and the 5th ASP Competition will be run in the first
half of 2014 jointly at Aalto University (Finland), the University of
Calabria (Italy) and the University of Genova (Italy).  Another reason
for having an event only one year after the 4th ASP Competition is that
in 2013 the new ASP-Core-2 language was introduced, but at that time it
was not fully supported by most participant solvers, and/or the
submitters did not have sufficient time to support new language
features in a completely satisfactory way.  Thus, an early event can
be an opportunity to push the usage of the new standard, and draw a
more complete picture about the approaches that can efficiently solve
problems with various features.

== Call for Participant Systems ==

Participants of the Answer Set Programming Competition will compete on
a selected collection of benchmark problems, taken from a variety of
benchmark problem domains as well as real-world applications.  These
include, but are not limited to:

 * Classic and application-oriented graph problems
 * Scheduling, Timetabling, and other resource allocation problems
 * Sequential and Temporal Planning
 * Combinatorial Optimization problems
 * Deductive Database tasks on large data-sets
 * Puzzles and Combinatorics
 * Ontology reasoning
 * Automated Theorem Proving and Model Checking
 * Constraint Programming problems
 * Other AI problems

The competition consists of a System Track (as called in past
competitions), which compares dedicated solvers on ASP benchmarks.
Participants compete with solving systems for the ASP-Core-2 language.
Some more details are given in the following:

- The benchmark domains are taken from past editions.

- Systems of the 2013 edition will be considered.
(Developers will have the chance of submitting up-to-date versions of
 their solvers.)

- Submissions of new solvers are encouraged.

The competition will include sub-tracks not only based on complexity
of problems (as in past events), but also considering language
features.  Our aim is to clearly indicate what (combinations of)
techniques work for a particular (set of) feature(s), and also widening
the participation to teams that cannot (yet) support the full standard.

We welcome the submission of parallel and portfolio systems exploiting
multiple cores or multiple algorithms for solving the given instances.
These solvers will have dedicated tracks, assuming a sufficient number
of submissions in each track.  Of course, we also welcome the
submission of any kind of solvers, e.g., SAT solvers, SMT solvers, CP
systems, FOL theorem provers, Description Logics reasoners, Planning
reasoners, or any other that can be adapted/applied to the evaluation
of logic programs encoded in ASP-Core-2.

== Important Dates ==

As anticipated during the 2013 presentation, in order to join the Vienna

and the 5th ASP Competition will be run in the first half of 2014, jointly
at Aalto University (Finland), University of Calabria (Italy) and
University of Genova (Italy). The event is affiliated with the 30th
International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP). Another reason for
having an event just one year after the 4th ASP Competition is the fact
that the new ASP-Core-2 language standard has been introduced in 2013,
but, unfortunately, it was not fully supported by most participant to the
2013 edition, and/or submitters did not succeed at supporting the new
language features in a completely satisfactory way, due to limited time
resources. Thus, an early event can be an opportunity to push the usage
of the new standard, and draw a more complete picture about the approaches

  the chance of submitting up-to-date versions of their solvers.)

- Submissions of new solvers are encouraged.

The competition will not be limited to sub-tracks based on
complexity of problems (as in past events), but rather will take
into consideration language features: sub-tracks will range from a
basic language, to (by adding features such as aggregates and choice
rules) to the ASP-Core-2 language.  The aim is to clearly indicate what
(combinations of) techniques work for a particular (set of)
feature(s), and also widening the participation to teams that cannot
(yet) support the full standard.  The final sub-track design will depend
on the availability of benchmarks as well as systems.  Participants are
encouraged to inform us about any limitations or requirements of their
systems so that we can take them into account in the sub-track design.

We welcome the submission of parallel and portfolio systems making use of
multiple cores or multiple algorithms for solving the given instances.
These solvers will have dedicated tracks, assuming a sufficient number of
submissions in each track.  Of course, we also welcome the submission of
any kind of solvers, e.g., SAT solvers, SMT solvers, CP systems, FOL

Dear Colleagues,

We warmly encourage you to consider LPNMR 2015 for
work that you might have that you're looking
to publish shortly. Our submission deadline is
a few less than two weeks from now (Apr 30th).

We remind you that two best general appeal papers from LPNMR are
expected to be selected for fast publication in Artificial Intelligence,
and two best papers in the logic programming area will be selected
for fast track publication in TPLP.

Also, for those lucky enough to have papers accepted to IJCAI-15,
we will consider submissions for just oral presentation.

For those not so lucky that have papers rejected from
IJCAI-15, there is a comfortable time window after the notification to
revise your paper and submit it to us for oral presentation
and inclusion in the Springer LNCS proceedings.

we look forward for your submissions!

Best regards,
the LPNMR 2015 PC Chairs

VENUE

 Lexington is a medium size, pleasant and quiet university town. It is
 located in the heart of the so-called Bluegrass Region in Central Kentucky.
 The city is surrounded by beautiful horse farms on green pastures dotted
 with ponds and traditional architecture stables, and small race tracks, and
 bordered by white or black fences. The Horse Museum is as beautifully
 located as it is interesting. Overall, the city has a nice feel that mixes
 well old and new. The conference will be held in the Hilton Lexington
 Downtown hotel.

Main Workshop starts:   November  06, 2023 (may be subject to slight
adjustments, please check the website regularly)
Working Group meeting:  Right after the workshop



= Background =
In the latest years we have been witnessing the ubiquitous application of
Artificial Intelligence in real-world domains; in particular, AI-based
solutions significantly changed the game in the field of medicine and
healthcare in several respects (research, management, clinical practice).
Indeed, applications of AI in the healthcare domain became a major research
topics, that attracts cross-disciplinary research groups.
Medicine and health care require highly complex decision making to ensure
that the trajectory a patient with a disease needs to take for diagnosis,
treatment, recovery, and finally outcome is optimal in some sense. As a
consequence, researchers have to draw methods from the entire field of AI.
On the other hand, healthcare and medicine are built upon a rich and
evolving body of knowledge, e.g., concerning the pathophysiology of
diseases, molecular, genetic, cytological, and histological
characterization of stages of a disease, described by temporal and spatial
patterns. Such knowledge can also act as background knowledge to guide
machine learning. In order to move towards effective and long-lasting
applications of AI in healthcare, it is crucial to elucidate the
relationship between what can be expected from AI methods when applied to
healthcare problems and the role knowledge of healthcare and clinical
medicine can play in developing AI solutions to health-care and clinical
problems.


= The Workshop =
Following the success of the first edition, the HC@AIxIA workshop aims at
gathering researchers from academia, industry and medical centers for
presenting and discussing the latest research results and ongoing works
related to the application and impact of AI in the healthcare domain, to
the larger extent, thus aiming at covering a wide spectrum of topics,
including theoretical and practical aspects, methodologies, technologies,
and systems.

Topics include, ***but are not limited to***:
 - Machine learning methods, data mining and statistical methods for
clinical decision support
 - Probabilistic graphical models for clinical decision-making and causal
networks
 - Learning, representation and reasoning with time
 - Knowledge representation, reasoning and formal argumentation in
healthcare:
 - Methods for diagnosis, treatment selection, treatment planning, and
prognosis
 - Monitoring patients in healthcare
 - Ontologies and medical vocabularies
 - Personalized medicine
 - Computer-interpretable clinical guidelines
 - Support for natural language generation/understanding in connection
electronic patient records
 - Tools for supporting authoring, execution and maintenance of clinical
protocols and guidelines
 - Tools for building and deployment of clinical decision-support systems


= Contributions =
The workshop will feature presentations of refereed contributions; four
types of submissions are invited:
 - full papers;
 - short papers, which are particularly suitable for presenting work in
progress, software prototypes, extended abstracts of doctoral theses, or
general overviews of research projects;

Artificial Intelligence in real-world domains; in particular, AI-based
solutions significantly changed the game in the field of medicine and
healthcare in several respects (research, management, clinical practice).
Indeed, applications of AI in the healthcare domain became a major research
topics, that attracts cross-disciplinary research groups.
Medicine and health care require highly complex decision making to ensure
that the trajectory a patient with a disease needs to take for diagnosis,
treatment, recovery, and finally outcome is optimal in some sense. As a
consequence, researchers have to draw methods from the entire field of AI.
On the other hand, healthcare and medicine are built upon a rich and
evolving body of knowledge, e.g., concerning the pathophysiology of
diseases, molecular, genetic, cytological, and histological
characterization of stages of a disease, described by temporal and spatial
patterns. Such knowledge can also act as background knowledge to guide
machine learning. In order to move towards effective and long-lasting
applications of AI in healthcare, it is crucial to elucidate the
relationship between what can be expected from AI methods when applied to
healthcare problems and the role knowledge of healthcare and clinical
medicine can play in developing AI solutions to health-care and clinical
problems.


= The Workshop =
The HX@AIxIA workshop aims at gathering researchers from academia, industry
and medical centers for presenting and discussing the latest research
results and ongoing works related to the application and impact of AI in
the healthcare domain, to the larger extent, thus aiming at covering a wide
spectrum of topics, including theoretical and practical aspects,
methodologies, technologies, and systems.

= Contributions =
The workshop will feature presentations of refereed contributions; two
types of submissions are invited:
 - full papers, possibly already submitted to other conferences or journals
 - short papers, which are particularly suitable for presenting work in
progress, software prototypes, extended abstracts of doctoral theses, or
general overviews of research projects.

In particular, we also invite submissions of systems or prototype software
descriptions; systems of both research and industrial character are
welcome. Submissions must include a brief description, prepared according
to the guidelines given for short papers, and a specification of the
required hardware and software equipment.
Besides demos, some contributions might be invited to be presented as
posters.


= Submission Instructions =
Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts in PDF via the EasyChair
system at the link:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hcaixia2022

Articles must not exceed 15 pages for full papers and 8 pages for short
papers, respectively.
Manuscripts should be formatted using the Springer LNCS style.
To ease the reviewing process, the authors of regular papers may add an
appendix (although reviewers are not required to consider it in their
evaluation).

All contributions must be written in English.

For each accepted contribution, at least one of the authors is required to
attend the conference and present the paper. The event is organized by
AIxIA.

= Proceedings and Journal Special Issue =
All accepted original contributions (both full and short) will be published
on CEUR-WS.org. Non-original communications will be given visibility on the
workshop web site, including a link to the original publication, if already
published.

The organizers are considering the possibility of having workshop
post-proceedings appearing in a special issue of an international journal,
provided that a sufficient amount of quality papers is collected. In such a
case, authors of accepted papers will be invited to submit extended and
revised versions of their papers. Extensions of accepted non-original
contributions, if not published in a journal yet, might be included in the
issue. A second review formal process will be run in order to meet the
expected quality of a journal.


= NOTE: WORKING GROUP KICK-OFF MEETING =
All authors of accepted papers are invited to participate in the Kick-Off
meeting of the AI and Healthcare Working Group of AIxIA (
https://aixia.it/en/gruppi/hc/), that will be held on November 30rd, 2022
right after the workshop.
