Accepting PhD Students

PhD projects

Students interested in doing a PhD in areas related to ontology engineering, knowledge representation and reasoning, knowledge-based AI, automated reasoning, logic, logic-based multi-agent systems and any topics close to my research interests are welcome to contact me to discuss possible projects. I am currently particularly interested in supervising projects on these topics:

- Foundations and Advancement of Subontology Generation for Clinically Relevant Information
- Query answering and query rewriting for ontology-based languages
- Knowledge base extraction using forgetting-based techniques
- Knowledge Sharing Among Communicating Agents

Anybody with a keen interest and some background in (a subset of) ontologies, classical logic, description or modal logic, automated reasoning, knowledge representation and reasoning and symbolic AI will enjoy these projects. The research may be focussed on theoretical work, it may be focussed on enhancing our existing technologies, develop new technology, or it may be application-oriented. Most likely the research will involve a combination of these.

Since every year PhD studentships are awarded on a first come first serve basis and the deadlines for the President's and Faculty awards are normally in December to February it is advisable to apply early in the academic year. Do refer to the PhD application pages on the Department website and contact someone in the admissions team for the most up-to-date information.
