NMR 2023

21st International Workshop on Nonmonotonic Reasoning

September 2-4, 2023, Rhodes, Greece
Co-located with KR 2023

NMR is the premier forum for results in the area of Nonmonotonic Reasoning. Its aim is to bring together active researchers in this broad field within knowledge representation and reasoning (KR), including belief revision, uncertain reasoning, reasoning about actions, planning, logic programming, preferences, argumentation, causality, and many other related topics including systems and applications. Visit also the general NMR webpage.

NMR has a long history - it started in 1984 and, up until 2020, was held every two years. Recent previous NMR workshops were held in Haifa (2022), Hanoi (virtually) (2021), Rhodes (virtually) (2020), Tempe (2018), Cape Town (2016), Vienna (2014), Rome (2012), Toronto (2010), and Sydney (2008).

NMR 2023 is part of the 20th International Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR 2023).

Inivited Speakers

Diego Calvanese Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy
Juha Kontinen University of Helsinki, Finland

Team-based logics and their applications

Team Semantics is the mathematical basis of modern logics for reasoning about dependence, independence, and imperfect information. During the past decade research on team semantics has flourished with interesting connections to fields such as database theory, statistics, formal linguistics, hyperproperties and causality, just to mention a few examples. I will give a short introduction to first-order team semantics and discuss recent generalizations and applications that might be relevant for the nonmonotonic reasoning community.

Aims and Scope

As in previous editions, NMR 2023 aims to foster connections between the different subareas of nonmonotonic reasoning and provide a forum for emerging topics. We especially invite papers on systems and applications, as well as position papers addressing benchmark issues. The workshop will be structured by topical sessions fitting to the scopes of accepted papers. Workshop activities will include invited talks and presentations of technical papers.

Submission Details

There are two types of submissions:

All submissions should be formatted in CEUR style (2-column style) without enabled header and footer. The author kit can be found at http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip. Papers must be submitted in PDF only.

Submission will be through the EasyChair conference system. Please submit via Easychair to: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=nmr2023

Workshop Proceedings

The accepted papers will be made available electronically in the CEUR Workshop Proceedings series as informal proceedings (http://ceur-ws.org/). The copyright of papers remain with the authors. Full papers will be indexed by dblp.org; but extended abstracts published on CEUR proceedings will not be indexed by dblp.org anymore.

Student Grants

A limited number of student grants for participating in NMR 2023 are available. The grants consist of a fixed amount that can be used to support travel costs and/or registration fees. Grants will be given to students attending the workshop who lack sufficient funding. Preference will be given to students presenting a paper at NMR 2023. To apply for a student grant, please contact one of the chairs of NMR 2023.

Venue

NMR 2023 will be held at Rhodos, Greece. Additional information on the conference location and travel planning can be found at the KR 2023 website.
