Description:

The newly established Unit for Natural Language Processing at the Digital
Enterprise Research Institute (DERI: http://www.deri.ie/) of the National
University of Ireland, Galway invites applications for two Ph.D. positions. 

DERI is a leading research institute in semantic technologies that offers a
stimulating, dynamic and multi-cultural research environment, excellent ties to
research-groups worldwide, close collaboration with industrial partners and
up-to-date infrastructure and resources. 

The DERI Unit for Natural Language Processing (http://nlp.deri.ie/) has a focus
on applied research in ontology-based information extraction, semantic-level
text mining and the use of linguistic and semantic methods in information
retrieval. The unit develops methods for the efficient application of NLP tools
in combination with domain semantics as specified in ontologies, thesauri and
other knowledge organisation systems for relevant use cases. Research is carried
out in close cooperation with the DERI Unit for Information Mining and Retrieval
in the context of the DERI Semantic Information Mining stream (SIM:
http://sim.deri.ie/) as well as with other DERI units.

Candidates should have an excellent university degree in a relevant field of
study, e.g. computer science, computational linguistics, information science,
etc. with an emphasis on natural language processing. Selected candidates are
expected to have the willingness to combine formal scientific work with
application-oriented research and development in projects funded by national and
international (EU) funding agencies. 

Application Deadline: 16-Feb-2009
