Knowledge Representation

Developing novel approaches to semantic understanding and information processing, creating AI systems that truly understand meaning and context.

Research Overview

Our Knowledge Representation research focuses on developing AI systems that can understand, reason about, and manipulate knowledge in ways that are meaningful to humans. We're working on the fundamental challenge of how to represent and process semantic information in computational systems.

By combining insights from linguistics, cognitive science, and computer science, we're building the foundation for the next generation of AI systems that can truly understand context, meaning, and the relationships between concepts.

Key Research Areas

Semantic Embeddings

Developing advanced embedding techniques that capture not just word similarities, but deep semantic relationships and contextual understanding.

Knowledge Graphs

Building dynamic knowledge graphs that can evolve and learn from new information while maintaining consistency and coherence.

Conceptual Spaces

Creating geometric representations of concepts that preserve semantic relationships and enable intuitive reasoning.

Contextual Understanding

Developing models that can understand and adapt to different contexts, including cultural, temporal, and domain-specific variations.

Multi-Modal Knowledge

Integrating knowledge from text, images, audio, and other modalities to create richer, more comprehensive representations.

Inference and Reasoning

Building systems that can perform logical inference and reasoning over knowledge representations to answer complex questions.

Applications

Natural Language Processing

Our knowledge representation techniques are advancing the state-of-the-art in natural language understanding, enabling more accurate translation, summarization, and question-answering systems.

Semantic Search

We're developing search systems that understand the intent and context behind queries, rather than just matching keywords, leading to more relevant and useful results.

Intelligent Assistants

Our research is enabling the development of AI assistants that can understand complex requests, maintain context across conversations, and provide more helpful responses.

Scientific Discovery

By representing scientific knowledge in structured, computable forms, we're helping researchers discover new connections and insights across different fields.

Recent Publications
