Research Associate

My research in KMi is focused on Semantic Search. Within the context of this research line I investigate: a) methods to enhance traditional IR and QA techniques introducing higher level of conceptualizations in the form of ontologies; b) methods and benchmarks to evaluate semantic search systems and c) How the quality and amount of ontologies influences in the quality and performance of the proposed semantic search methods.

Keys: semantic web, information retrieval, personalization, contextualization
