I am an internal PhD student at the
Department of Cybertentics and Artificial Intelligence. We are part of the Technical University of Kosice. My research interests is mostly on semantic web, browsing and navigation. In the past I did work with
Magpie - a tool for Semantic Web , better to say I developed system for generating Magpie lexicon from ontology. Since then, I've obviously moved to more challenging problems. Well, the focus of my research at this time is visualization of ontologies and semantic web technologies. In order to construct semantic web it is necessary to provide an approach for quick and simple exploration of ontologies. Main goal of my work is to develop a system for support of decision-making by means of visualization. My work is in connection with NeOn project. I have recently finished my internship at Knowledge Media Instituke, where I worked as visiting researcher, being involved in Watson-based application developers. My internship at KMi was based on accord interests of mine and KMi. I am also a teacher at the
Department of Cybertentics and Artificial Intelligence. My supervisor is
Marian Mach, M.S., Ph.D and co-supervisors are
Kristina Machova, Ph.D and
Martin Dzbor, Ph.D.
