Résumé de carrière

• From 2009 I am an associate professor in the Centre for Language Sciences and Communication at Lebanese University.
• Between 2008-2009 I was a research fellow "Tools for dynamic representation of research activities of Institut Mines-Télécom of France" at the Telecom Bretagne.
• Between 2006 and 2008 I was affiliated with Orleans University where I worked as Lecturer.
• In 2007 I completed my Ph.D. at the University of Tours.
• In 2003 I received a master's degree from the University of La Rochelle and in 2001 a bachelor's degree in Computer Science from the Lebanese University.

• I have worked on various topics in Semantic Web, Information Retrieval and Natural Language Processing.
• During my my PhD thesis I explored semantic information carried by hypertext links and proposed methods to formalize and automate its extraction.
• After my PhD thesis I'm interested in computational linguistics, especially in Machine Learning methods and their applications in text
• I am the developer of this website.
