Blog: Semantic Web in Austin
My Calendar
I am a Ph.D. Student in the Department of Computer Sciences at the University of Texas at Austin. My research interest is Semantic Web, Ontologies and Databases and my current research involves integrating databases with the Semantic Web. I am an Invited Expert at the W3C RDB2RDF XG. I am a Research Assistant on the Morphester ATOL project My advisor is Dr. Daniel Miranker.
My main research interest is the Semantic Web and Ontologies. My research involves on how to integrate existing data in Relational Databases and expose it to the Semantic Web. I work on what I call "direct mapping", where no external domain ontology is used for mapping. Instead, the relational schema is used to semi-automatically create the ontology. A demo is coming soon!
