  Knowledge from Heterogeneous Massive Data". This five-day
  summer school follows the successful tradition of previous EDBT
  schools: stimulating lectures by leading researchers in the
  field, competitive research challenges to build upon and extend
  the lectures, and a lively scientific and social program.
* Speakers and lecture topics:
  - “Mining Temporal Networks”.
    Aristides Gionis, with Polina Rozenshtein. Aalto University - Finland.
  - “Data Curation and Machine Learning”.
    Ihab Ilyas. University of Waterloo - Canada.
  - “Information extraction ​with document spanners and
     Big data analytics with logical formalisms”.
    Benny Kimelfeld. Technion - Israel.
  - “Working with Knowledge Graphs.”.
    Markus Krötzsch. University of Dresden - Germany.
  - “Data Curation and Integration at the time of Open Data”.

* We invite advanced graduate students, postdocs, and other
  academic and industrial researchers interested in an intensive
  study of the state-of-the-art techniques for managing data
  heterogeneity and extracting knowledge from such data to
  participate in the summer school. Application and registration
  details can be found on the school website.:
