Submission Deadline:  May 22nd 2022  June 3rd 2022

The theme of CCKS2022 is “Knowledge Graph Empowers Digital Economy”, which aims to explore key technologies of language understanding, knowledge acquisition, knowledge fusion, and knowledge reasoning in the process of digital industrialization and industrial digitalization, and discuss knowledge driven innovative applications, in order to accelerate the digital society construction, create good digital ecosystems and prompt digital China construction. CCKS2022 will include tutorials, keynotes, industry forums, evaluations and competitions, review of top conferences, poster/demo and academic paper presentations. The conference will invite world-renowned scholars at home and abroad to give lectures on the latest research advancement, recent trending and practical experience in related fields. The industry forum will invite key R&D personnel from industrial partners to share their experience and promote the cooperation between industry and academia. 

CCKS 2022 solicits submissions of original research work related to Knowledge Graph. Submissions must be in PDF format, using the style of the Springer Publications format for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS, word template, latex template). Full paper submissions must be no longer than 12 pages. All submissions will be critically reviewed by at least three members of the Program Committee of the conference. To assess submissions, reviewers will judge their relevance to the conference, their originality, technical soundness and depth of their proposed approach, and the readability of the submissions. Specifically, CCKS2022 adopts a double-blind reviewing process, following the principle of conflict of interest. When submitting a manuscript, you should not disclose the author’s information in any place such as the title page, acknowledgments, quotations, main text, footnotes, etc., otherwise it will be rejected without review. 

Accepted English papers will be published in a Springer LNCS proceedings. A small number of the outstanding English papers accepted by CCKS2022 will be recommended to the Journal of Data Intelligence, Journal of Computer Science and Technology (JCST), and AI Open. Accepted Chinese papers will be recommended to the Journal of Chinese Information Processing, the ACTA Scientiarum Naturalium Universitatis Pekinensis, Journal of Shanxi University, Software Guide and Journal of Yanshan University. The journals to which papers are recommended might require an additional reviewing process before being accepted for publication.

All manuscripts (including both English and Chinese papers) should be submitted electronically via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ccks2022
