An AKBC Workshop/Conference is an academic workshop focused on the development and research of [ automated knowledge base construction.
- Context:
- It can (typically) focus on methodologies for gathering, representing, and reasoning over large-scale knowledge bases, which are essential for various AI applications.
- It can (often) feature research on natural language processing (NLP) techniques such as entity extraction, semantic parsing, and information integration.
- It can range from exploring supervised and unsupervised machine learning methods for knowledge base construction to discussing the integration of multi-modal data sources, including text, images, and videos.
- It can include sessions on the practical applications of knowledge bases in fields like search, question-answering, and semantic web technologies.
- It can promote discussions on the ethical aspects of knowledge base construction, such as fairness, accountability, transparency, and handling misinformation.
- It can serve as a collaborative platform for both academia and industry professionals to share their latest findings and innovations in the field.
- Example(s):
- The AKBC-2016 / 5th Workshop on Automated Knowledge Base Construction was held in San Diego, CA, USA, as part of the NAACL-HLT conference, featuring discussions on coreference resolution, semantic parsing, and knowledge graph completion.
- The AKBC-2017 / 6th Workshop on Automated Knowledge Base Construction took place at NIPS in Long Beach, CA, USA, focusing on deep learning methods for knowledge extraction and representation.
- The AKBC-2019 / 1st Conference on Automated Knowledge Base Construction in Amherst, MA, USA, marked the transition from a workshop to a full conference, with broader topics including information extraction, machine reading, and multi-modal knowledge bases.
- The AKBC-2022 / 4th Conference on Automated Knowledge Base Construction held in London, UK, and online, emphasized the integration of knowledge bases with NLP techniques, ethical considerations, and applications in real-world scenarios.

- Counter-Example(s):
- The TextGraphs Workshop, which focuses specifically on the intersection of graph theory and natural language processing, rather than the broader scope of automated knowledge base construction.
- The CIKM Conference, which addresses a wider range of topics in information and knowledge management, including but not limited to knowledge base construction.
