*************************************************************************************

The RuleML+RR 9th Doctoral Consortium 2025 (DC) is an initiative of the
RuleML+RR community to attract and promote student research in
Artificial Intelligence, especially research on rule-based formalisms
and reasoning in such formalisms. It offers students a close contact
with leading experts in the field, as well as the opportunity to present
and discuss their ideas in a dynamic and friendly setting.

We invite PhD students at an early or intermediate stage of their PhD
studies, as well as exceptional master's students who are interested in
pursuing a PhD, to submit papers describing their research on any of the
topics of RuleML+RR 2025.

RuleML+RR DC papers range between 8 and 15 pages, are written in
English, will be published as part of CEUR proceedings, and should
follow the CEUR-WS.org style template CEURART (1-column variant). They
are submitted electronically in PDF together with a maximum 2 page-long
CV (the paper and the CV should be submitted together as one PDF file,
but the CV is not counted within the 15 pages limit and is not published
in the proceedings if the paper is accepted).

The submission should cover the following aspects:
* The identification of a significant problem in a research field
relevant to RuleML+RR 2025.
* An outline of the current knowledge in the problem's domain, as well
as an overview of existing solutions.
* A clear formulation of the research question and motivation.
* A presentation of (possibly preliminary) ideas, the proposed
approach, and the results achieved so far.
* A sketch of the applied research methodology and its positioning in
the field.
* A description of the student's contribution to the research.
* A discussion of how the suggested solution is different, new, or
better as compared to the state of the art.
* A research plan and the potential achievements.
