Projects

2018 - 2022 - CheMU: Cheminformatics Elsevier Melbourne Universities (Elsevier). This project, co-funded by Elsevier and the Australian government, with participation of the University of Melbourne and RMIT University, aims at studying deep learning-driven information extraction techniques for chemical patents. Co-Investigator.
2016 - 2018 - KABI: KonfidenzsAbchätzung in Biomedizinischer Informationsextraction (Uni Stuttgart). This project, funded by MWK Baden-Württemberg and University of Stuttgart, aims at studying the problem confidence estimation for biomedical relation extraction. Co-Investigator.
2012 - 2014 - VeriCliG: extraction and Verification of careflows from Clinical Guidelines (FUB). This internally funded project aimed at enhancing medical guideline authoring tools by means of semantic annotation, information extraction and computational logic. Please check the project site for more details. Co-Investigator.
2010 - 2013 - NET²: a NETwork for enabling NETworked knowledge (FP7-247601). This European collaborative project was devoted to the study of semantic technologies. My task was to study their relationships with controlled natural languages and with formal semantics. Please check the project site for more details. Co-Investigator.
2005 - 2008 - TONES: Thinking ONtologiES (FP6-7603). This project was devoted to the development of OWL- and ontology-based data integration systems. My task was to study the feasability of controlled natural language query interfaces to such systems. Please check the project site for more details. Co-Investigator.
2005 - CORDER: COmmunity Relation Discovery by named Entity Recognition (KMi). I studied unsupervised techniques (hierarchical clustering) for automatically learning taxonomies of topics from web pages (specifically, a taxomony of computer science (sub)areas extracted from the universiy of Manchester CS department's website). Please check the project site for more details. Intern.
