About the Workshop

LNGAI 2022 is the second installment of a series of annual international workshops associated with the national key project "Research on Logics for New Generation Artificial Intelligence" (2021–2025), supported by the National Social Science Foundation of China.

The main objectives of this project are to develop theories and techniques of non-monotonic logics and formal argumentation, and apply them to causal reasoning, knowledge graph reasoning, and reasoning about norms and values, in an open, dynamic and real environment.

The workshop aims to enable efficient communication and collaboration between members of the project as well as other researchers interested in these topics. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, LNGAI 2022 is held in hybrid format.

"Developing the logical foundations for AI systems that reason, argue, and operate in complex, real-world environments." — LNGAI Research Mission
