In the era of big data, massive amounts of information and data have dramatically changed human civilization. The broad availability of information provides more opportunities for people, but a new challenge is rising: how can we obtain useful knowledge from numerous information sources. A knowledge entity is a relatively independent and integral knowledge module in a special discipline or a research domain [1]. As a crucial medium for knowledge transmission, scientific documents that contain a large number of knowledge entities attract the attention of scholars [2]. Complementarily, informetrics, known as the study of quantitative aspects of information, has gained great benefits from artificial intelligence (AI), with its capacities in analyzing unstructured scalable data and streams, understanding uncertain semantics, and developing robust and repeatable models. Incorporating informetrics with AI techniques has demonstrated enormous success in turning big data into big value and impact. For example, deep learning approaches enlighten studies of pattern recognition and further leverage time series to track technological change. However, how to effectively cohere the power of AI and informetrics to create cross-disciplinary solutions is still elusive from neither theoretical nor practical perspectives.
This workshop aims to engage related communities in open problems in the extraction and evaluation of knowledge entities from scientific documents and AI + Informetrics. Specifically, knowledge entities in scientific documents may include method entities, tasks, dataset and metrics, software and tools, etc [3]. Knowledge entity application includes the construction of a knowledge entity graph and roadmap, modeling functions of knowledge entity citations, etc. There are some online platforms based on knowledge entities, e.g., SAGE Research Methods and ‘SOTA’ project. In parallel, this workshop also targets certain unsolved issues in AI + Informetrics and a wide range of its practical scenarios including: Cohering AI and informetrics to fulfill cross-disciplinary gaps from either theoretical or practical perspectives; elaborating AI-empowered informetric models with enhanced capabilities in robustness, adaptability, and effectiveness, and leveraging knowledge, concepts, and models in information management to strengthen the interpretability of AI + Informetrics to adapt to empirical needs in real-world cases [4].
This joint workshop entitles these two cutting-edge and cross-disciplinary directions as:
This workshop is primarily designed for academic researchers in broad information and library sciences, science of science, artificial intelligence, and will also be of interest to librarians, ST&I administrators and policymakers, and practitioners in any related sectors.
We invite stimulating research on topics including, but not limited to, methods of knowledge entity extraction and applications of knowledge entity. Specific examples of fields of interest include:
Abstract: This keynote concerns the emergence of large language models, most recently and popularly embodied ChatGPT. These models have been trained using deep learning algorithms on a massive corpus of text data collected from sources across the web. These models demand a fundamental change in the conduct of scientometric research. In this speech I describe why I think such changes are necessary, and how such research changes may be enacted.

Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have changed AI and in many ways determine what AI is and can do. Though there have been many applications and uses of LLMs, we will discuss what LLMs mean for information retrieval and extraction. Already an LLM is used in Google ranking. How else can LLMs be used in these areas and what can and can’t they do.

Proceedings can be accessed at http://ceur-ws.org/. We have organized three special issues on the topic of extraction and evaluation of knowledge entities in the Journal of Data and Information Science, Data and Information Management, Aslib Journal of Information Management and Scientometrics respectively. The first AII workshop was held at iConference2021 and the second was held at IP&MC 2022 Annual Conference. We have organized two special issues on the topic of AI + Informetrics in the Scientometrcis and Information Processing and Managerment respectively.
