Experience

Research Projects

Building Chinese Linked Open Data, from Sep 2010 to Sep 2011, a joint project with Baidu. It aimed at extracting semantic data from existing well-known Chinese Web sites (e.g., Baidu Baike, Hudong Baike and Baidu Zhidao) to build Chinese Linked Open Data which can be further integrated with the state of the art Linking Open Data (LOD). I was the project technical leader at the lab side.

Linked Data Driven Information Extraction from Biomedical Literature towards Semantic Search, from May 2010 to May 2011, a joint project with IBM China Research Lab. It aimed at developing scalable open information extraction algorithms for high-quality biomedical knowledge extraction. Then such extracted knowledge can be fed to improve search. I was the project technical leader on the lab side.

Search and Mining Generalized Associated Data on the Web, from June 2009 to June 2010, a joint project with Baidu. It aimed at providing a unified framework to capture semantic relationships between data from Web pages, social networks, and even semantic Web together. Then we tried to extend the existing search and mining algorithms on top of the generalized associated data from heterogeneous sources. I was the project technical leader on the lab side.

Building the Chinese Semantic Search Engine based on UIMA, from Jan 2009 to Jan 2010, a research project awarded by IBM UIMA Innovation. I was the project technical leader on the lab side.

Fast Querying on Large Scale Semantic Data using Cloud Computing, from May 2008 to May 2010, a joint project with IBM China Research Lab. It aimed at building a semantic search engine for fast querying of large scale Semantic Web data using cloud computing. I was the project technical leader on the lab side.

Cleaning and Enriching DBpedia towards Weaving Open Linked Data, from May 2008 to May 2009, a joint project with IBM China Research Lab. It aimed at cleaning and enriching DBpedia to result in high-quality Semantic Web data towards weaving Open Linked Data. I was the project leader on the university side.

SEP (Semantic Enterprise Portal), from Mar 2007 to Mar 2008, a joint project with Intel China Research Lab. It aimed at building a semantic enterprise portal as an intelligent enterprise mashup for easier access, reuse and integration of resources and services. I was the project technical leader on the lab side.

Semantic Search on the Hybrid Web, from Apr 2006 to Apr 2008, a joint project with IBM China Research Lab. It aimed at building a semantic search system for the Hybrid Web that contains ontologies with formal semantics, textual documents, and annotations between them. I was the project technical leader on the lab side.

CoBM (Collaborative Business Modeling) from Mar 2005 to Mar 2006, a joint project with IBM China Research Lab. It aimed at developing an integrated collaborative business modeling environment based on Eclipse by integrating Semantic Web technologies. We won the 2006 International IBM Ecplise Innovation Award. I was the project technical leader on the lab side.
