Our current research efforts include:
- EMail and
Speech --
This project strives to help users make sense of large digital
eMail and speech data collections by formulating and applying
innovative ideas and software solutions.
Project lead:
Doug Oard
-
Probabalistic
Linkage and Activity Inference -- This project focuses on
probabilistic method useage with respect to Entity Resolution,
Probabilistic Ontologies, Probabilistic Ontology Browsers, and
Spatio-Temporal Activity Identification.
Project Lead: V.S. Subrahmanian
-
Annotation and Evaluation --
This project explores data source "ground truthing" which, in-turn, allows
researchers to measure their approach efficacy against known criteria.
It also probes new ground truthing tool approaches and mechanisms for
maintaining and serving knowledge base annotations.

Other efforts include:
-
Bio Generation.
-
eMail content analysis --
UMBC's Institute for Language and Information Technologies
(ILIT)
contributes to the e-mail analysis project by
generating formal specifications of the meaning (the content)
of the e-mails. It also contributes to the activity reference
project by extracting from text knowledge about timed events,
entity reference resolution and in general creating from text
fact repositories that can be used to support automatic reasoning.
Project Lead: Sergei Nirenburg
