Overview of the 17th International Joint Conference on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management
IC3K 2025 (17th International Joint Conference on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management) received 163 paper submissions from 40 countries. To evaluate each submission, a double-blind paper review was performed by the Program Committee. After a stringent selection process, 31 papers were published and presented as full papers, i.e. completed work (12 pages/25' oral presentation), 81 papers were accepted as short papers (54 as oral presentation). The organizing committee included the IC3K Conference Chairs: Ricardo da Silva Torres, Artificial Intelligence Group, Wageningen University & Research, Netherlands and Jorge Bernardino, Polytechnic University of Coimbra, Portugal, and the IC3K 2025 Program Chairs: Le Gruenwald, University of Oklahoma, School of Computer Science, United States, Frans Coenen, University of Liverpool, United Kingdom, Jesualdo Tomรกs Fernรกndez-Breis, University of Murcia, Spain, Lars Nolle, Jade University of Applied Sciences, Germany, Elio Masciari, University of Napoli Federico II, Italy and David Aveiro, University of Madeira, NOVA-LINCS and ARDITI, Portugal.

The U.S. Olympic bobsled team borrowed Honda's wind tunnel for test runs
The U.S. Olympic bobsled team borrowed Honda's wind tunnel for test runs In West Liberty, Ohio, Team USA athletes boarded their bobsleds to gather data on aerodynamics. Honda's Ohio wind tunnel is 110,000 square feet and is typically used to measure vehicle aerodynamics. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. In the daredevil sport of bobsledding, intrepid athletes crammed into a narrow sleigh offer their fates to gravity as they hurl down a banked, twisty ice track. Races can be won or lost in one hundredth of a second. The sleds reach speeds of 90+ miles per hour and the athletes withstand forces up to 5g.
