Research Interests

My research interests include developing Web Information Systems using Web and Semantic Web technologies, Semantic Web query languages, databases and natural language processing, data mining and machine learning, adaptation and personalization, and information visualisation. As application domains, I focus on building intelligent decision support systems for e-commerce, finance, marketing, and cultural heritage.
