#iswc2025 — Public Fediverse posts

I was very excited (as folks could tell) and honored about having given the keynote at @iswc_conf this year in Nara, Japan. Thanks everyone for their very kind reception of the talk! Thanks for inviting me!

I was talking about Wikipedia and the Semantic Web - 20 years of co-development and the future, sketching out how the two have and keep influencing each other.

The presentation will be online on Video Lectures in the next few weeks.

We had a blast at #ISWC2025 – plenty of great insights and amazing people. We also brought a contribution of our own!

📝 Our CTO Piotr Sowiński presented a poster on Jelly-Patch – a super-fast format for recording changes in RDF datasets. It's one of the crucial pieces for our upcoming streaming neurosymbolic AI platform. Poster and paper linked in a comment below.

The order of presentations for the "S15: KGs and LLMs" session has been changed. The first presentation was changed to a video presentation and then moved to the last.

In her keynote at #ISWC2025, Yuko Harayama, Secretary General of Global Partnership on AI Tokyo Expert Support Center, is discussing the challenges of #AI on Human Society, suggesting a shift from originally tech-driven to human-centered paradigm, addressing key questions related to #ethics, #law, #economy, #society, #education, and R&D

👻 💥 Happy to bring some madness into the minute madness at #ISWC2025 and even happier to have presented our work on the NFDI4Culture ontology, the KG and exploration methods during the poster session. Thank you everyone for the inspiring discussions! 🍿 ⭐

Denny Vrandencic is guiding us through the long history of Wikipedia and the Semantic Web in his brilliant keynote at #ISWC2025 from Aristotle to Wikifunctions, enabling an automatically generated (multilingual) Wikipedia also in lesser represented languages

Kouji Kozaki and Anna Lisa Gentile are opening #ISWC2025 with almost 400 participants this year. Despite the popularity of generative #Ai the largest topic here is still knowledge representation and readoning

I am one of the local organizing committee members of #ISWC2025 and today's Karaoke Party!
We have received many more requests to participate in the karaoke party than we expected, so we may need to split into multiple venues if one location cannot accommodate everyone.
Additionally, at the karaoke venue, we will need to divide everyone into groups of approximately 8 people and split them across multiple rooms.
Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Today, our colleague @sourisnumerique is presenting her PhD research work in the #ISWC2025 doctoral consortium on "Viewsari: Enabling New Perspectives on the Renaissance with a Knowledge Graph of Giorgio Vasari’s The Lives" which focusses on the analysis of this important art historical text including, as e.g. artwork recognition & identification, etc.

Next contributiuon by our team member @enorouzi on "Semantic Representation of Processes with Ontology Design Patterns" at the #SeMatS2025 workshop on Semantic Materials Science presenting the results of a survey & analysis of MSE related ontologies for identifying design patterns. This is joint work with Sven Hertling, @joerg & @lysander07
