The American Society for Information Science Special Interest
Group on Classification Research (ASIS SIG/CR) announces the
3rd ASIS Classification Research Workshop, to be held at the
55th Annual Meeting of ASIS in Pittsburgh,PA. The workshop
will take place Sunday, October 25th, 1992, 8:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
ASIS `92 continues through Thursday, October 29th.
The CR Workshop is designed to be an exchange of ideas among
active researchers with interests in the creation, development,
management, representation, display, comparison, compatibility,
theory, and application of classification schemes. Emphasis will
be on semantic classification, in contrast to statistically based
schemes. Topics include, but are not limited to:
*Warrant for concepts in classification schemes * Concept
acquisition * Basis for semantic classes * Automated techniques
to assist in creating classification schemes * Statistical
techniques used for developing explicit semantic classes *
Relations and their properties * Inheritance and subsumption *
Knowledge representation schemes * Classification algorithms *
Procedural knowledge in classification schemes * Reasoning
with classification schemes * Software for management of
classification schemes * Interfaces for displaying A * Data
structures and programming languages for classification
schemes * Image classification * Comparison and compatibility
between classification schemes * Applications such as subject
analysis, natural language understanding, information retrieval,
expert systems.
Those participating submitted a short position paper
summarizing substantive work in the above or other areas
related to semantic classification schemes, and a statement
briefly outlining the reason for wanting to participate in
the workshop. Presenters will submit expanded versions of their
position papers and speak to those papers in brief
presentations during the workshop. All position papers (both
expanded and short papers) will be published in proceedings to be
distributed prior to the workshop. The workshop registration fee
is $35.00, which includes lunch and refreshments.
