About

Researcher and PhD student at IfIS. Currently interested in the representation of complex events in information systems. Namely:

• Narrative aspects in Event-Centric Knowledge Graphs (ECKGs), also known as viewpoints, journalistic angles, and event framing in the literature,
• innovative query mechanisms for ECKGs (e.g., viewpoint-dependent queries and event analogies), and
• mining and grounding of complex narratives.
