Research Interests
machine learning, knowledge discovery, artificial intelligence, personalization, user modelling, information filtering, information extraction, event recognition, ontology learning, grammar learning, Web mining
Current and Recent Activities
We are coordinating the BioASQ project, which will intitiate a challenge on large-scale biomedical semantic indexing and question answering.
In cooperation with Scify, we are offering our generic personalization server PServer for free.
We developed a text analytics service for public consultations; we call it gov.insight (in Greek). gov.insight in the Greek news (Epikaira, Naftemporiki).
Check the results of the PASCAL Large Scale Hierarchical Text Classification challenge.
We have recently organised the ECML/PKDD 2012, Discovery Challenge Workshop.
We are also participating in the PASCAL2 network of excellence.
The projects SYNC3, PRONTO, CASAM and SERVIVE have been completed.
Undergrad and postgrad theses by the division of Intelligent Information Systems (in Greek).
Serving in the editorial boards of Real-Time Business Insights, UMUAI and COIN.
