I lead the Intelligent Systems and Data Science research group in KMi, which carries out research in a variety of areas relevant to the development of user-centric, intelligent, data-intensive solutions. These include Data Science, Semantic Web Technologies, Visual Analytics, Robotics, Large-Scale Data Infrastructures, Internet of Things, Machine Learning, Human-Computer Interaction and others. Application domains include (but are not limited to) Smart Cities, Scholarly Data and Digital Humanities.
Current initiatives include a collaboration with Springer Nature in the area of intelligent systems for scholarly publishing; the organization of the first ERL Smart CIty RObotic Challenge (the SciRoc challenge), which will be held in Milton Keynes (UK) from September 16th to September 22nd, 2019; and the CityLabs Innovation Programme, which enables SMEs in our region (South East Midlands) to take advantage of our expertise in Intelligent Systems and Data Science to develop innovative products and services for the digital economy.
