Area of research:
Computational Geosciences

Research project details:
My project looks at using knowledge graphs for improving geoscience knowledge management in a machine learning approach.

Location:
CSIRO Mineral Resources, ARRC Perth

My expectations from a mentoring partnership:

I would like to be in touch with my mentor every two weeks to exchange ideas on my project’s subject.
My preferred method of communicating is by email and Webex.
Ideally, my mentor would hold a PhD in Computer Science or a related STEM field. Experience with programming, ML, artificial intelligence, data science, linguistics, knowledge engineering, and NLP is desirable.

More about me:

My research work is currently focused in developing knowledge management applied to Geoscience. Previously I have worked in geological hazards assessment, Geomorphology, Earth observation technologies, hazards impacts associated with extremes events and forecasting of landslides, flood and debris flow risk. I have plenty of experience in disaster management as well as fieldwork and hazard forecast using numerical modelling.
