Academic Experience
ECARLE Project
2018 - 2021
ECARLE Project
Exploitation of Cultural Assets with computer-assisted Recognition, Labeling and meta-data Enrichment

I have primarily focused my work on semantic indexing in the domain of Greek literature. Specifically, I have placed emphasis on developing a deep learning architecture for text classification, taking Genre/Form terms into account. This endeavor brought forth distinct challenges, largely arising from the use of archaic Greek language and the varying quality of the source text, which was frequently impacted by OCR applied to digital books.

Large Scale Semantic Indexing and Question Answering
2015-2019
Large Scale Semantic Indexing and Question Answering
In collaboration with Atypon Systems, LLC

My primary focus has been on Question Answering within the biomedical field. Specifically, I aimed to refine the conceptualization of QA by conducting an in-depth study of related works in this area. This involved constructing various learning models, creating novel algorithms, and integrating multiple resources.

2016 - 2020
Lab Assistant

Continuous Engineering and Deep Learning for Trustworthy Autonomous Systems
Summer School

Deep learning has developed into a mature technology and it is nowadays an essential part in systems that may include timing and cyber-physical components, such as self-driving cars, autonomous control systems in medical applications and so on. We call these systems learning-enabled autonomous systems and we focus on key challenges in their design and development, which lie in the intersection of the two H2020 research projects that jointly organize this one-week summer school with prominent invited speakers and hands-on sessions on related tools and state-of-the-art industrial technologies.
