Research of Interest
My research of interest is Cognitive Computing for Semantic Computing. Meaning, investigating the theoretical and computational models involved in cognitive-based processes of semantic learning, representation and growth from sources of natural language (English, in our case). Cognitive semantic models are mainly for the semantic memory.
This direction of research is mainly based on the fundamental hypothesis of as the semantic tasks performed by/for the semantic memory are not disjoint from the cognition. In fact, strong claims have been made about cognitive semantics, such as: "to study semantics of natural language is to study cognitive psychology (Jackendoff, 1983)." This way to mimic the human cognition for semantic learning , representation and growth and reduce it into process-based algorithmic models for building more intelligent computer (text-mining) agents, which to be capable of understanding then consuming the sources of human natural language, such as text corpora and texts from social media platforms.
