Brief Statement of Research Interest

My research focuses on the emerging filed of Web Sciences. Social and Semantic Web research and its implementation in search and recommender systems for context intensive domains. The interaction between Data Science and Semantic Web is a special interest of mine. Currently I am working with Directorate of Archeology and Museums on Cultural Heritage data preservation and representation.


My interest areas include. 

  • Semantic web/ Social Web,
  • Data Science 
  • Recommender Systems, 
  • Digital Heritage and Computing, 
  • Data modeling, 
  • Personalization, 
  • Big Data/ Data Mining 
  • Search Systems
