20th International Conference on

Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning, KR 2023

September 2 - September 8, 2023, Rhodes, Greece

First Call for Papers

Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR) is a well-established and 
lively field of research within Artificial Intelligence. KR  builds on 
the fundamental thesis that knowledge can be  represented in an explicit 
declarative form, suitable for processing by dedicated symbolic 
reasoning engines. This enables the exploitation of  knowledge that 
would otherwise be implicit through semantically grounded inference 
mechanisms. Consequently, KR has contributed to the theory and practice 
of various areas in AI, including agents, automated planning and natural 
language processing, and to fields beyond AI, including data management, 
semantic web, verification, software engineering, robotics, 
computational biology, and cyber security.


The KR conference series is the leading forum for timely in-depth 
presentation of progress in the theory and principles underlying the 
representation and computational management of knowledge.


KR 2023 will consist of a number of tracks and events: the Main Track, 
the Applications & Systems Track, the special session on KR & ML, the 
special session on KR, Robotics & Planning, the Recently Published 
Research (RPR) Track, the Tutorials & Workshops, the Doctoral 
Consortium, and the Diversity and Inclusion Session. Details about all 
these events will be made available later (possibly in separate calls).


Contributions to the Main Track, the Applications & Systems Track, the 
special session on KR & ML, and the special session on KR, Robotics & 
Planning will take the form of papers that will be published in the 
proceedings of KR 2023. We solicit papers presenting novel results on 
the principles of KR that clearly contribute to the formal foundations 
of relevant problems or show the applicability of results to implemented 
or implementable systems. We also welcome papers from other areas that 
show clear use of, or contributions to, the principles or practice of 
KR. We also encourage "reports from the field" of applications, 
experiments, developments, and tests. Further details about the 
submission guidelines and the selection criteria to be considered for 
the Applications & Systems Track, the special session on KR & ML, and 
the special session on KR, Robotics & Planning will be given later 
(possibly in separate calls).


Submission Guidelines

The Main Track, the Applications & Systems Track, as well as the special 
session on KR & ML and the special session on KR, Robotics & Planning 
will allow contributions of both regular papers (up to 9 pages) and 
short papers (up to 4 pages), including abstract, figures, and 
appendices (if any) but excluding references and acknowledgements, 
prepared and submitted according to the authors guidelines provided in 
the submission page.


Both full and short papers must describe original, previously 
unpublished research, and must not simultaneously be submitted for 
publication elsewhere. These restrictions do not apply to previously 
accepted workshop papers with a limited audience and/or without archival 
proceedings, or to papers uploaded at public repositories (e.g., arXiv).


Papers must be written in English and formatted using the style files 
provided in the submission page. Submissions are not anonymous (i.e., 
reviewing will be single-blind) and must be submitted in PDF format, 
through the EasyChair conference system: 
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=kr2023


The paper title, author names, contact details, and a brief abstract 
must be submitted electronically through the EasyChair conference system 
by the abstract submission deadline. It will be possible to make minor 
edits to the title and abstract until the full paper submission 
deadline. Submissions with "placeholder" abstracts will be removed 
without consideration.


Full papers must be submitted through the same site by the paper 
submission deadline. The list of author names provided at submission 
time is final. Authors may not be added to, or removed from, papers 
following submission.


Authors may optionally submit a separate PDF containing additional 
information that substantiates the claims made in their paper, such as 
proof details, additional experimental results, further details on 
experimental design, etc. If authors wish to make such material 
available to reviewers, they should do so by submitting a file through 
EasyChair, rather than by including links or references in their paper. 
The main paper must be self contained, as the supplementary material 
will not be published. Reviewers will have the option, but not the 
obligation, to consult the supplementary
