2nd Workshop on Patent Text Mining and Semantic Technologies at @SIGIR’21

On July 15, 2021 the 2nd Workshop on Patent Text Mining and Semantic Technologies (PatentSemTech) will be held in conjunction with SIGIR’21 - the 44th International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval. The workshop is organized by FIZ Karlsruhe, TU Vienna Informatics, Artificial Researcher, RSA FG Research Studio DSc, Hasso Plattner Institut, Potsdam and Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, USA.

May 18, 2021 — The workshop will provide a platform to present novel research and developments in the areas of text and data mining and the application of semantic technologies to patent data.

With the PatentSemTech2021 workshop we continue our series of workshops launched in 2019, aiming to establish a long-term collaboration and a two-way communication channel between the IP industry and academia from relevant fields such as natural-language processing (NLP), text and data mining (TDM) and semantic technologies (ST). Hereby, we hope to enable the exploration and transfer of new knowledge, methods and technologies for the benefit of industrial applications as well as support research in applied sciences for the IP and neighboring domains. The workshop is designed to showcase high-quality new research in addition to topical technical presentations and expert panel discussions around the topic “Artificial Intelligence & Patent Analytics: Friends or Foes?“.
