Biography

I am an active researcher in the areas of real-time IR, machine learning, big data stream processing and evaluation methodologies over streaming data, currently based within the IR Group of the IDA Section of the School of Computing Science at the University of Glasgow. My specialisms are: real-time IR technologies to enable users to efficiently and effectively find information in big data streams; the research and development of automatic (assistive) agents to detect events, extract knowledge and summarize information within big data streams; as well as methodologies to evaluate systems that process such streams.
