    Text Mining Position, School of Computer Science, University of
    Manchester and National Centre for Text Mining

     

    One Research Associate is required for 24 months for an EC 6th Framework
    Information Society Technologies collaborative project entitled
    Bootstrapping of Ontologies and Terminologies. The project aims at
    building reusable wide-coverage lexical, conceptual and factual
    knowledge resources for the biology domain, to support text mining. This
    involves both exploiting existing terminological resources and
    automatically acquiring new terms and concepts and associated linguistic
    information from the vast amount of literature.

     

    The successful candidate will be part of the growing team of researchers
    associated with both the National Centre for Text
    Mining(http://www.nactem.ac.uk <http://www.nactem.ac.uk/> ) which is
    hosted by the School of Computer Science and the Manchester
    Interdisciplinary Biocentre (http://www.mib.ac.uk
    <http://www.mib.ac.uk/> ).

     

    Applicants should have a PhD or equivalent research experience in
    Computer Science with emphasis in text mining or a related topic.
    Candidates should preferably also have a good working knowledge of
    natural language processing, machine learning techniques and ontologies.

     

    Informal enquiries should be made to Dr Sophia Ananiadou, on +44
