About Me

I graduated from the Engineering Department from the Ghent University in 2003. Following up on my studies in computer science, I achieved a PhD in computer science engineering at the Department of Information Technology at the same university. After being a postdoctoral research engineer at the Department of Information Technology, I started as lecturer ICT and ICT research coordinator at the University College West-Flanders. Currently, I am associate professor semantic intelligence at IDLab, Ghent University-imec. My research focuses on combining machine learning and semantic technologies for predictive maintenance and predictive healthcare. For more info, please visit my team website.
