Sérgio Matos received his PhD in Computer Science in 2007 by the University of Leicester (UK) and the Habilitation in Computer Science in 2024 by the University of Aveiro. He is currently Associate Professor in the Department of Electronics, Telecommunications and Informatics, Universidade de Aveiro and researcher in the Biomedical Informatics and Technologies group of the Institute of Electronics and Informatics Engineering of Aveiro, since 2008. He coordinated the creation and was the director of the Master's in Data Science at Universidade de Aveiro during the academic years 2021/22 and 2022/23. His main research interests are in machine learning, data mining, information retrieval, information extraction, and semantic data annotation. S. Matos has published over 100 papers in international journals and conferences, and has been an active participant in several biomedical and clinical shared tasks and community challenges, including Biocreative, i2b2/n2c2, TREC and BioASQ. He is a reviewer for several journals and member of the program committee in the main NLP and IR conferences, namely ACL, EACL, NAACL, EMNLP, ACM SIGIR and ECIR, and has served as evaluator for R&D project proposals at a national level. S. Matos is currently involved in two European research projects, and has participated in five other European projects and eigth national projects, and was member of the Management Committee of an ICT Cost Action from 2013 to 2017. He was the PI of a nationally funded research project (FCT), two exploratory projects in text and data mining, and four advanced computing projects. He has supervised 30 MSc students and 5 PhD theses and is currently supervisor of three PhD students, working in the areas of deep learning, natural language processing, information retrieval and information extraction.

  2. Corpógrafo and NooJ: using linguistic resources to obtain aligned concordances from corpora. In this presentation we will describe the integration of NooJ within the Corpógrafo environment. We will demonstrate how the NooJ corpus processing engine and linguistic resources are used in Corpógrafo for extracting lexical bundles and for obtaining simple concordances from corpora and aligned concordances from parallel corpora, and how we are implementing the search for "parallel" concordances. 2008.
