Season 1The first season of my research career was on developing methods and tools for text analysis, topic detection and mapping using a mixture of symbolic (Natural Language Processing and Computational Terminology) and numeric approaches (statistical and mathematical models). Applications targeted were text mining, knowledge acquisition, terminology structuring, information Visualisation and Information Retrieval. The keywords of this research strand are:

Season 2In this second season, I stepped back back from the heavily empirical and quantitative applied research to critically examine the theoretical and epistemological underpinnings of the data analysis methods and tools I had developed.
