It originated from the Chinese Knowledge Graph Symposium (CKGS) and the Chinese Semantic Web and Web Science Conference (CSWS). In 2016, the two conferences were merged. From 2016 to 2024, CCKS has been successfully held in Beijing, Chengdu, Tianjin, Hangzhou, Nanchang, Guangzhou (online), Qinhuangdao, Shenyang, Chongqing, and Fuzhou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CCKS has become the core academic conference in China in the fields of knowledge graph and semantic technology, attracting researchers and professionals from related areas such as knowledge representation and reasoning, natural language understanding and knowledge acquisition, graph data management and graph computing, and intelligent question answering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CCKS 2026<\/strong> will be held in <strong>Xi\u2019an from August 21 to 23, 2026<\/strong>. The theme of this year\u2019s conference is \u201c<strong>Knowledge, Memory, and Cognitive Reasoning<\/strong>\u201d, aiming to explore the deep integration and synergistic evolution between knowledge memory mechanisms and cognitive reasoning. The conference will focus on key technologies in knowledge graphs and large models, such as knowledge representation, knowledge storage, knowledge mining, knowledge fusion, knowledge reasoning, explainability, memory enhancement, and cognitive computing. The goal is to guide breakthroughs in knowledge-driven theories and technologies for the next generation of cognitive intelligence and to promote the advancement of its industrial applications. The program will feature tutorials, keynote talks, frontiers and trends forum, industry forum, young scholar forum, evaluations and competitions, paper presentations, posters, and system demonstrations. Distinguished scholars and industry leaders will be invited to share the latest developments and foster academic-industry collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>2. Evaluation Tasks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>CCKS 2026 will organize evaluation competitions related to knowledge graphs and semantic computing to provide a platform for researchers to test technologies, algorithms and systems, and to promote research progress and industrial application in combining knowledge graphs with large models. The evaluation tasks in CCKS 2025 comprised eight competitions covering the topics such as knowledge editing, knowledge extraction, and complex question answering, attracting more than 2,100 teams and nearly 3,000 participants and offering a total prize pool of 150,000 RMB, creating significant impact in industry and academia. For CCKS 2026, task organizers may select the platform and evaluation scheme according to the characteristics of their tasks. We now publicly solicit evaluation task proposals for CCKS 2026 from researchers, research institutions, and enterprises in related fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Important Dates<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Submission deadline for task proposals: April 10<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Notification of review results: April 12<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Release of evaluation tasks: April 18<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Registration period: April 18\u2013July 3<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Release of training and validation data: May 15<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Release of test data: July 3<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Submission of test results: July 10<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Notification of evaluation rankings: July 17<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Submission of evaluation papers: August 3<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>CCKS 2026 conference dates (evaluation reports and awards): August 21\u201323<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Evaluation Chairs:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Jingping Liu<\/strong>, Sun Yat\u2011sen University (liujp68@mail.sysu.edu.cn)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sheng Bi<\/strong>, Southeast University (bisheng@seu.edu.cn)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Please send evaluation task proposals to the evaluation chairs by email.
