(AKR³) -Workshop

We are glad to promote another workshop taking place at ESWC 2024 and co-organized by MUHAI partners. The Actionable Knowledge Representation and Reasoning for Robots (AKR3) workshop,.

The workshop is dedicated to Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KRR) in the area of cognitive robotics, with the focus on acquiring knowledge from the Web and making it actionable for robotic applications. Its aim is to bring together the European communities specializing in KRR and robotics to increase collaboration and accelerate advancements in the field.

Papers are welcomed on the following guiding topics, but are open to any related research direction and topic:

-Knowledge Representation for cognitive robotics: The importance of linking object to action and environment information
-Approaches to leverage common sense and task knowledge from existing structured (e.g., common sense knowledge bases) or unstructured (e.g., the Web) sources
-Linking common sense knowledge to perception and execution
-Translation of task requests to body movements and parametrisation of such body movements with Web knowledge
-Novel formalisms and approaches to represent and encode knowledge for robots
-Novel cognitive architectures and paradigms supporting reasoning with Web knowledge
-Use of large language models and prompting to infer action-relevant knowledge
-Natural language processing applied to common sense and task knowledge extraction from unstructured source
