Research Interests and Activities
This research activity is fully aligned with the objectives of the ReGarD theme, which focuses on enhancing the capacity of computational systems to interpret, structure, and exploit human-produced data. The overarching goal is to design explainable and context-aware methodological frameworks capable of addressing heterogeneous and complex information environments.
Research Areas
-
Extraction, preprocessing, and transformation of data originating from semi-structured documents;
-
Application of large language models for information extraction, semantic enrichment, and structural normalization of textual content;
-
Multimodal data fusion leveraging heterogeneous inputs such as text, images, and graph-based knowledge representations;
-
Design of intelligent information systems integrating symbolic representations (knowledge graphs, ontologies) with deep learning paradigms (neural architectures, large language models) within hybrid computational frameworks.
Scientific Contributions
-
Development and evaluation of machine-learning-based approaches for anomaly detection in textual corpora;
-
Analysis and implementation of hybrid architectures combining neural models, language models, and graph-structured knowledge to improve robustness, interpretability, and generalization.
The activity also includes involvement in the supervision of Master's-level research projects addressing data representation challenges and explainable multimodal fusion methodologies.
