Overview<\/h3>\n

The ESWC organizers are glad to announce that the Challenges Track will be included again in the program of ESWC 2018!<\/p>\n

Five challenges were held last year [1]<\/a> and allowed the ESWC2017 conference to attract a broader audience beyond the Semantic Web community, also spanning across disciplines such as Recommender Systems or Knowledge Extraction.<\/p>\n

For the 2018 edition, a call for challenges is open in order to allow the selection of challenges to be held at the conference.<\/p>\n

The purpose of challenges is to showcase the maturity of state of the art methods and tools on tasks common to the Semantic Web community and adjacent disciplines, in a controlled setting involving rigorous evaluation.<\/p>\n

Semantic Web Challenges are an official track of the conference, ensuring significant visibility for the challenges as well as participants. Challenge participants are asked to present their submissions as well as provide a paper describing their work. These papers must undergo a peer-review by experts relevant to the challenge task, and will be published in the challenge proceedings.<\/p>\n

Next to the publication of proceedings, challenges at ESWC2018 will benefit from high visibility and direct access to the ESWC audience and community.<\/p>\n
