Abstract will follow…..
Anna Fensel is a Full Professor in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science at Wageningen University & Research, Wageningen, the Netherlands. Previously, she was an Associate Professor and Senior Assistant Professor at Semantic Technology Institute (STI) Innsbruck, Department of Computer Science, University of Innsbruck, Austria, and prior to this worked as a Senior Researcher at FTW – Telecommunications Research Center Vienna, Austria, and a Research Fellow at the University of Surrey, UK, and as a project employee at DERI Innsbruck, University of Innsbruck, Austria. Anna has earned her habilitation (2018) and her doctoral degree (2006) in Computer Science at the University of Innsbruck. Prior to that, she has received a diploma in Mathematics and Computer Science equivalent to the Master degree (2003) from Novosibirsk State University, Russia. Her research focus is on semantic technology, linked data and knowledge graphs, and their application and adoption in various domains (e.g. sustainability, energy efficiency, production, food and health, social sciences), as well as across them. Anna has been extensively involved in EU and national third-party funded projects, being a consortium coordinator of several projects, as well as a principal investigator in further more than 20 projects. She has been a co-organizer or a Program Committee member of more than 100 scientific events, including being in chair roles at major events (e.g. RuleML+RR, SEMANTiCS, and ESWC), an editor and reviewer for numerous journals (e.g. as an editorial board member of Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence) and a project proposals evaluator for numerous EU and national funding agencies. She has co-authored ca. 150 refereed publications, and received several best paper awards.
