Semantic Newsfeed Aggregation

Participant : Christophe Desclaux.

Christophe was this year in his last year of engineering school at Polytech UNS in the KIS speciality. During his end of course project he worked on the RSS feed aggregation using Named Entities Recognition. He presented his research project to the student contest Boost Your Code organized by Inria. The aim of the contest is to offer to a junior engineer a one year full time contract to work on an innovating OpenSource project. Christophe won the contest and is now part of the Wimmics team since november 2012. The ZONE project (http://zone-project.org ) provides a specialized tool for monitoring domain. ZONE semantically increases news for a better classification for the user. Christophe will work in collaboration with the team on documents clustering, natural language processing and RDF datastores.
