14th International Conference on Conceptual Structures
Conceptual Structures: Inspiration and Application

July 16 - 21, Aalborg University, Denmark

The International Conferences on Conceptual Structures (ICCS) has been held annually in Europe, Australia, or North America since 1993. The central focus is the formal representation and analysis of conceptual knowledge with research and business applications focusing on artificial intelligence, computational linguistics, and related areas of computer science.

Historically, a group of researchers working on the theory and applications of Conceptual Graphs founded the ICCS. Over the years, they have broadened the scope to include a wider range of theories, among them Formal Concept Analysis, Description Logics, Semantic Web, Ontologies, and related techniques.

The theme of ICCS 2006 - Conceptual Structures: Inspiration and Application - points to a dual focus of interest. We intend to focus on inspirational sources that have led to the current status of research in our community as well as on ways in which these legacies can be employed to further advance theory and practice in the field of knowledge representation and processing.
