The theme of the workshop includes a variety of interdisciplinary challenges related to analysis, interaction with and interpretation of vast amounts of event-centric textual, semantic and visual information in multiple languages originating from different communities. The goal of the interdisciplinary CLEOPATRA workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners from the fields of Semantic Web, the Web, NLP, IR, Human Computation, Visual Analytics and Digital Humanities to discuss and evaluate methods and solutions for effective and efficient analytics of event-centric multilingual information spread across heterogeneous sources. This will support the delivery of analytical results in ways meaningful to users, helping them to cross language barriers and better understand event representations and their context in other languages.
