Research Assistant

Biography

Currently, I work as a Research Assistant in the Department of Computer Science in the University of Oxford, and my research is funded by the ExODA project.

Previously, I was a PhD student in Griffith University, Australia, under the supervision of Prof. Kewen Wang, Prof. Rodney Topor, and Prof. Grigoris Antoniou (external supervisor). In my doctoral research work, I developed mechanisms and techniques to modify ontologies based on description logics.

My research interests are in knowledge representation and ontology-based technologies. In particular, I have been working on developing ontology evolution techniques, algorithms and tools. I am also interested in automated reasoning and non-monotonic reasoning.
