Special issue on conceptual structures

This special issue collects fully revised and extended versions of selected contributions presented at the International Conference on Conceptual Structures (ICCS 2020), "Ontologies and Concepts in Mind and Machines" [1], which was held online on September 18-21, 2020.The ICCS conference focuses on the formal analysis and representation of conceptual knowledge, at the crossroads of artificial intelligence, human cognition, computational linguistics, and related areas of computer science and cognitive science.Recently, graph based Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KRR) paradigms are getting more and more attention.With the rise of quasi-autonomous Artificial Intelligence (AI), graph-based representations provide a vehicle for making machine cognition explicit to its human users.Conversely, graphical and graph-based models can provide a rigorous way of expressing intuitive notions in computable frameworks.The aim of the ICCS 2020 conference is to build upon its long-standing expertise in graph-based KRR and focus on providing modeling, formal, and application results of graph-based systems.The special issue welcomes contributions from a modeling, application, and theoretical viewpoint.
