Call For Papers

As usual, MDE Intelligence 2022 is going to be co-located with MODELS 2022 (ACM/IEEE 25th International Conference on Model Driven Engineering Languages and Systems)

Model-driven engineering (MDE) and artificial intelligence (AI) are two separate fields in computer science, which can clearly benefit from cross-pollination and collaboration. There are at least two ways in which such integration—which we call MDE Intelligence—can manifest:

1. Artificial Intelligence for MDE. MDE can benefit from integrating AI concepts and ideas to increase its power: flexibility, user experience, quality, etc. For example, using model transformations through search-based approaches, or by increasing the ability to abstract from partially formed, manual sketches into fully-shaped and formally specified meta-models and editors.
2. MDE for Artificial Intelligence. AI is software, and as such, it can benefit from integrating concepts and ideas from MDE that have been proven to improve software development. For example, using domain-specific languages allows domain experts to directly express and manipulate their problems while providing an auditable conversion pipeline. Together this can improve trust in and safety of AI technologies. Similarly, MDE technologies can contribute to the goal of explainable AI.

OBJECTIVES

This workshop aims to bring together researchers from MDE and AI backgrounds as well as researchers and practitioners from other domains with problems that might be addressed by a combination of such approaches to explore opportunities for cross-pollination, collaboration, and exciting new research avenues. It also provides an opportunity to expand on the main conference's theme “modelling for social good”. Specifically, it has three objectives:

1. Grow a community of researchers and practitioners interested in combining AI and MDE towards “MDE Intelligence”;
2. Highlight recent results in combining AI and MDE techniques; and
3. Collect and collate challenges and case studies to help the community to develop a common set of problems and a shared language.

TOPICS

Topics of interest for the workshop include, but are not limited to:

AI for MDE:

• Application of (meta-heuristic) search to modelling problems;
• ML of (meta-)models, concrete syntax, model transformations, etc.;
• AI planning applied to (meta-)modelling, and model management;
• AI-supported modelling (e.g., bots, recommenders, UI adaptation, etc.)
• Semantic reasoning, knowledge graphs or domain-specific ontologies;
• AI-supported model-based digital twins;
• Data quality and privacy issues in AI for MDE.

MDE for AI:

• Domain-specific modeling approaches for AI planning, machine learning, etc;
• Model-driven processes for AI system development;
• MDE techniques for explainable and fair AI;
• Using models for knowledge representation;
• Code-generation for AI libraries and platforms;
• MDE for federated learning.

General:

• Tools;
• Experience reports, case studies, and empirical studies;
• Challenges.
