Biography
Dr. Ioana Hulpus is a postdoctoral researcher in the Data and Web Science Group at the University of Mannheim, working with Prof. Dr. Heiner Stuckenschmidt and Prof. Dr. Simone Paolo Ponzetto on various topics at the border between text mining and structured knowledge representation. Before joining the Data and Web Science Group at Uni Mannheim, she worked as a post-doctoral researcher at Insight Centre, NUI-Galway, where she contributed to research projects involving partners like Elsevier, RTE and Irish Times. She received her Ph.D in 2014 from the National Insight Centre under the supervision of Dr. Conor Hayes, with a thesis on unsupervised word-sense disambiguation and topic labelling with knowledge graphs.
