Recent advances in Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) and Large Language Models (LLMs) have transformed the AI landscape, enabling systems to generate multimodal content and perform increasingly complex reasoning and decision-making tasks. Despite these advances, generative models still face important challenges, including hallucinations, limited interpretability, and difficulties in grounding outputs in reliable domain knowledge. Knowledge Graphs (KGs) provide a principled framework for representing structured and interconnected knowledge through entities, relations, and formal ontologies. They enable interpretability, reasoning, and the integration of domain expertise, making them an important component for building reliable and trustworthy AI systems. At the same time, LLM-based agents are emerging as a powerful paradigm for building autonomous systems capable of planning, tool use, and long-term task execution, often requiring structured representations of knowledge and memory.
The interaction between generative models, agentic systems, and knowledge graphs is therefore becoming an important research direction in contemporary AI. This workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from AI, NLP, Knowledge Graphs, Semantic Web, and Hybrid AI to explore methods, systems, and applications that combine these paradigms.
This edition represents a joint workshop, bringing together the communities of GenAIK (Generative AI and Knowledge Graphs) and NORA (Knowledge Graphs and Agentic Systems Interplay) to foster collaboration across these complementary research areas.
NFDI4DataScience (NFDI4DS) is a national research data infrastructure for Data Science and AI project.
The overarching objective of the project is the development, establishment, and sustainment of a national research data infrastructure (NFDI) for the
Data Science and Artificial Intelligence community in Germany. The vision of NFDI4DS is to support all steps of the complex and interdisciplinary
research data lifecycle, including collecting/creating, processing, analyzing, publishing, archiving, and reusing resources in Data Science and Artificial
Intelligence. NFDI4ds is offering a total of €2000 in travel grants (€1000 each) to two selected students who will attend and present their work at
GenAIK-NORA 2026! To be considered, submit your paper to the workshop, and if your paper is accepted, you’ll be eligible for a chance to receive one of the
two grants.
Grant applications will open after paper notifications—stay tuned!
