KR 2026 Special track: KR meets Machine Learning and Explanation
Call for Papers
################################################################
23rd International Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and=
 Reasoning
https://kr.org/KR2026/

Machine learning (ML) has seen groundbreaking advancements across countless=
 tasks in recent years, not least with the ongoing development and widespre=
ad deployment of large language models (LLMs). Concurrently, with this incr=
ease in both power and scope, it has become increasingly important that AI =
models are designed to be supplemented with explanations such that their ou=
tputs can be assessed, understood and modified if necessary. Meanwhile, the=
 field of KR presents an excellent repertoire of technologies for leveragin=
g knowledge in both ML and explanation pipelines. This special track thus a=
ims to focus on the synergistic interactions between KR and these complemen=
tary fields of ML and explanation.

We welcome contributions that extend the state-of-the-art at the intersecti=
on of KR with either of the fields mentioned above. With regards to explana=
tion, contributions that use KR in the explanation of AI models, or that ex=
plain numeric and/or symbolic models themselves, are welcomed. From the ML =
side, these may also include the use of KR methods for solving ML challenge=
s, the use of ML methods for solving KR challenges or the integration of le=
arning and reasoning towards better modelling, solving or explaining in dif=
ferent tasks. Papers focusing on evaluation protocols and benchmarking of t=
hese hybrid solutions will be also welcome.
