About me
Hi, I am a Senior Researcher at Virtual Vehicle Research GmbH (Graz University of Technology, Austria), Europe’s largest research and development center for virtual vehicle technology.
My research interests lie in the broad area of Semantic Web, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Representation, and Semantic Reasoning I am especially interested in Semantic Web Technologies (ontologies, RDF, SPARQL), Semantic Reasoning (SWRL), and the NLP area – Sentiment Analysis and Topic Modelling.
I was born in Serbia. I finished my education there and started my career. I moved to Austria in 2017. I live in Graz with my husband and son.
I am a passionate book reader and history lover. I like to travel. I am dedicated to charity work.
