  • 28 - 29 November 2024, 6th International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence and fOrmal VERification, Logic, Automata, and sYnthesis (Overlay 2024), Bolzano, Italy

    Date: 28 - 29 November 2024
    Location: Bolzano, Italy
    Deadline: Monday 16 September 2024

    The increasing adoption of Artificial Intelligence techniques in safety-critical systems, employed in real world scenarios, requires the design of reliable, robust, and verifiable methodologies. Artificial Intelligence systems employed in such applications need to provide formal guarantees about their safety, increasing the need for a close interaction between the Artificial Intelligence and Formal Methods scientific communities, and possibly leading to the proposal of novel neurosymbolic approaches. To witness this increasing need, tools and methodologies integrating Formal Methods and Artificial Intelligence, and more broadly symbolic and sub-symbolic solutions, are getting more and more attention, especially considering the wide-range and pervasive applications of machine and deep learning models.

    The workshop is the main official initiative supported by the OVERLAY group. The event aims at establishing a stable, long-term scientific forum on relevant topics connected to the relationships between Artificial Intelligence and Formal Methods, by providing a stimulating environment where researchers can discuss about opportunities and challenges at the border of the two areas. Important goals of the workshop are (i) to encourage the ongoing interaction between the formal methods and artificial intelligence communities, (ii) to identify innovative tools and methodologies, and (iii) to elicit a discussion on open issues and new challenges.

    We accept extended abstracts (5 pages + references) focusing on the interaction between Artificial Intelligence and Formal Methods and on the issue of symbolic/sub-symbolic integration. Contributed papers can present recent results at the border of the two fields, new research directions, challenges and perspectives. Presentation of results recently published in other scientific journals or conferences is also welcome.

    Submitted papers should not exceed five (5) pages plus references. Authors are asked to use the Overlay-specific CEURART LaTeX style. Authors of accepted papers will have the possibility to extend their submissions for the final camera-ready version to eight (8) pages plus references.

  • 21 July - 4 August 2024, Course "Logic as a Tool for Modelling", Amsterdam, The Netherlands

    Date: 21 July - 4 August 2024
    Location: Amsterdam, The Netherlands

    The course "Logic as a tool for modelling" is part of the VU Amsterdam's summer school. The aim of the course is to introduce participants to the study of various types of logic as a versatile tool for elegantly modelling diverse phenomena. The overarching theme in the handling of applications is the notion of categories and categorisation. The course starts by discussing classical logic, through both semantics and syntax, as well as applications in the social sciences, addressing agency, and information flow. Then it focuses on various theories of categorization from Aristotle's classical perspective to modern prototype and exemplar theory and introduces logical formalisms that encompass these various views. The last part delves into formal linguistics, where words are categorized based on their role in sentence formation.

  • 8 - 9 September 2024, 9th Workshop on Connexive Logics, Łódź (Poland)

    Date: 8 - 9 September 2024
    Location: Łódź (Poland)
    Costs: 100 euros

    Connexive logics are orthogonal to classical logic insofar as they validate certain non-theorems of classical logic involving mainly negation and implication. Modern connexive logic started in the 1960s with seminal papers by Richard B. Angell and Storrs McCall. Since then, systems of connexive logic have been motivated by considerations on a content connection between the antecedent and consequent of valid implications, as well as by applications that range from Aristotle's syllogistic to Categorial Grammar and the study of causal implications.

    As interests in topics related to connexive logics are growing, the ninth workshop aims at discussing directions for future research in connexive logics. Keynote speakers: Mateusz Klonowski (NCU, Toruń), Jacek Malinowski (IFiS PAN, Warsaw), Satoru Niki (RUB, Bochum), Grigory Olkhovikov (RUB, Bochum) and Francesco Paoli (UC, Cagliari).  This year, the WCL follows the NCL conference: we encourage you to participate in both events.

  • 17 September 2024, The Fifth International Workshop on Systems and Algorithms for Formal Argumentation (SAFA2024), Hagen, Germany

    Date: Tuesday 17 September 2024
    Location: Hagen, Germany

    Computational models of argumentation are approaches that deal with the representation and interaction of arguments and counterarguments. These models can be applied in all areas that benefit from automatic decision-support such as medicine, accounting, chemistry, and law. Many of these models were inspired by works within the fields of non-monotonic reasoning and logic programming and therefore share the sometimes considerable computational complexity of these approaches.

    Algorithmic aspects of computational models of argumentation are an important area, as witnessed by the popularity of the International Competition on Computational Models of Argumentation (ICCMA). This workshop aims at complementing the competition by providing a forum to present and discuss both systems and algorithms dealing with all aspects of computational argumentation, in particular those approaches addressing the tracks of the competition.

  • 18 - 20 September 2024, 10th International Conference on Computational Models of Argument (COMMA 2024), Hagen, Germany

  • 24 September 2024, 10th Workshop on Formal and Cognitive Reasoning (FCR 2024), Würzburg (Germany)

    Date: Tuesday 24 September 2024
    Location: Würzburg (Germany)

    In real-life AI applications, information is usually pervaded by uncertainty and subject to change, and thus requires non-classical systems. At the same time, psychological findings indicate that human reasoning cannot be completely described by classical logical systems. Sources of explanations are incomplete knowledge, incorrect beliefs, or inconsistencies. A wide range of reasoning mechanisms has to be considered, such as analogical or defeasible reasoning, possibly in combination with machine learning methods. The field of knowledge representation and reasoning offers a rich palette of methods for uncertain reasoning both to describe human reasoning and to model AI approaches.

    The aim of this series of workshops is to address recent challenges and to present novel approaches to uncertain reasoning and belief change in their broad senses, and in particular provide a forum for research work linking different paradigms of reasoning. A special focus is on papers that provide a base for connecting formal-logical models of knowledge representation and cognitive models of reasoning and learning, addressing formal and experimental or heuristic issues. FCR'24 will be co-located with the 47th German Conference on Artificial Intelligence (KI 2024).

  • 27 - 28 September 2024, Workshop on Truth, Definability and Quantification into Sentence Position, Vienna (Austria)

    Date: 27 - 28 September 2024
    Location: Vienna (Austria)

    Can truth be defined? Frege argued that it couldn't. Ramsey argued that defining it would be easy if only we had an analysis of judgement. Today Horwich claims that truth cannot be defined explicitly because doing so would require quantification into sentence position and such quantification is not coherent. Instead he proposes a “minimal theory” of truth, which comprises all the unproblematic instances of the equivalence schema. Künne, by contrast, argues that quantification into sentence position is coherent and may actually be part of some natural languages. Künne uses such quantification to define truth explicitly: ∀x (x is true iff ∃p ((x is the proposition that p) & p)). Or in English: a representation (belief, assertion etc) is true just if things are as it represents them as being.

    Is truth definable? Is propositional quantification coherent? Do natural languages involve propositional quantification, and in what sense? What do the answers to these questions mean for philosophical attempts to define or explain truth? Is truth redundant if explicitly definable? Not redundant if not explicitly definable? We are interested in these and related questions (broadly conceived).

    Confirmed speakers are: Peter Fritz (Australian Catholic University), Paul Horwich (New York University), Wolfgang Künne (University of Hamburg), Poppy Mankowitz (University of Bristol)  and Cheryl Misak (University of Toronto).

  • 30 September - 4 October 2024, Workshop Continuity, Computability, Constructivity - From Logic to Algorithms (CCC2024), Nice, France

    Date: 30 September - 4 October 2024
    Location: Nice, France

    CCC is a workshop series that brings together researchers applying logical methods to the development of algorithms, with a particular focus on computation with infinite data, where issues of continuity, computability and constructivity play major roles. Specific topics include exact real number computation, computable analysis, effective descriptive set theory, constructive analysis, and related areas. The overall aim is to apply logical methods in these disciplines to provide a sound foundation for obtaining exact and provably correct algorithms for computations with real numbers and other continuous data, which are of increasing importance in safety critical applications and scientific computation.

    Invited Speakers (confirmed): Micaela Mayero (University Sorbonne Paris Nord) and Jean-Michel Muller (ENS Lyon). With other names to be announced.
