3rd International Joint Conference on Learning and Reasoning (IJCLR 2023)
13-15 November 2023, Bari, Italy
https://ijclr2023.di.uniba.it/
The rapid progress in machine learning has been the primary reason for a fresh look
in the transformative potential of AI as a whole during the past decade.
A crucial milestone for taking full advantage of this potential is the endowment of
algorithms that learn from experience with the ability to consult existing
knowledge and reason with what has already been learned.
Integrating learning and reasoning constitutes one of the key open questions in AI,
and holds the potential of addressing many of the shortcomings of contemporary AI
approaches, including the black-box nature and the brittleness of deep learning,
and the difficulty to adapt knowledge representation models in the light of new
data.
Integrating learning and reasoning calls for approaches that combine knowledge
representation and machine reasoning techniques with learning algorithms from the
fields of neural, statistical and relational learning.
Three international conferences and workshops addressing such research topics join
forces in the 3rd International Conference on Learning & Reasoning (IJCLR 2023):
– The 32nd International Conference on Inductive Logic Programming (ILP)
– The 13th International Workshop on Approaches and Applications of Inductive
Programming (AAIP)
– The 1st International Workshop on Cognitive AI (CogAI)
IJCLR aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners working on various
aspects of learning & reasoning, via presentation of cutting-edge research on
topics of special interest to the participating conferences/workshops. In addition
to each of the three events' individual programs, which will be held in parallel,
IJCLR aims to promote collaboration and cross-fertilization between different
approaches and methodologies to integrating learning & reasoning, via joint plenary
keynotes/invited talks, panel discussions and poster sessions.
IJCLR 2023 sincerely invite your paper submissions to one of the following tracks:

IEEE NorCAS 2023 Call for Papers (etc.)
June 27th, 2023 Daniela Lopez de Luise
The 2023 IEEE Nordic Circuits and Systems Conference (NorCAS) will take place in
Aalborg, Denmark on October 31 – November 1, 2023. The conference is co-sponsored
by the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society and Tampere University, and the accepted and
presented papers will be submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore database.
In addition to the regular tracks of Analog, Digital, and System-on-Chip papers, we
have this year special sessions on:
- Approximate Computing Circuits and Systems
- Circuits and Systems in AI and Neuromorphic Computing
- Digital Design and Verification using Chisel
- Materials and Devices for Future Circuits and Systems
Special Session papers will undergo similar reviews as any other papers submitted to the
conference, and presented papers will also be submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore database.
The submission deadline for all papers is August 15, 2023. The papers shall be submitted
via the https://www.conftool.pro/norcas2023/ submission site.
We will also host half-day tutorials at 13-17 on Monday October 30, on the following topics:
- Design of Integrated Power Amplifiers for Mobile Communication Systems
- Network on Chip (NoC)-based Deep Neural Network Design Framework: From Algorithms to Architectures
- Advanced Topics in 5G Networks Across Industry and Cross border Corridors
For more details on IEEE NorCAS 2023, see https://events.tuni.fi/norcas2023. Participant registration to
the event will open in August, a link for that will be provided on the website.

*************************
*** Call for papers
Biometrics and forensics are two fields that can benefit from each other in several ways. Biometric technologies can aid forensic investigations by providing reliable identification of individuals involved in criminal activities, which can help link suspects to crimes. On the other hand, forensic science can contribute to the development of biometric technologies by providing insights into the unique physiological and behavioural characteristics that can be used for identification. Additionally, forensic science can also provide valuable insights into the accuracy and reliability of biometric technologies, which can aid in their improvement. The aim of this special session is thus to facilitate synergies and bring together researchers working on the areas of forensic science and biometrics. Topics of interest of this special session include (but are not limited to):
- Biometric analysis of crime scenes
- Biometric-based cybercrime investigation
- Attacks to biometric systems
- Mobile, behavioural and soft-biometrics
- Biometric data anonymization/de-identification
- Multimedia Forensics
- Deep fakes detection
- Surveillance
- Multi-biometrics
- Explainable AI for Biometrics and Forensics
- Ethical, societal or privacy implications
- Case studies of the aforementioned topics
*** Paper formatting and submission
Paper submitted to the special session should follow the same instructions and templates provided for the main conference submissions, posted here:
