CCC Seminar by Virginia Ramón-Ferrer, PhD student and researcher in the Ontology Engineering Group from the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Department at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid.
Abstract:
The presentation introduces the research activities of the Ontology Engineering Group, outlining its core areas (ontologies, knowledge graphs, NLP/NLG, and open science) and focusing on work in multilingual methods. In particular, it presents contributions on bridging structured data and text through data-to-text generation, multilingual benchmarks (such as Spanish WebNLG), and studies on multilingual and code-switched information retrieval, aiming to support more inclusive AI across languages.
Short Bio:
Virginia Ramón-Ferrer is a PhD student and researcher in the Ontology Engineering Group from the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Department at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, with a background in Computer Engineering, specifically in Computer Vision (CV) and Natural Language Processing (NLP). Her current work focuses on multilingual NLP, with an emphasis on multilingual data-to-text generation and Information Retrieval (IR), specifically in the intersection of structured data and text for IR, exploring how structured representations can better support retrieval and generation in multilingual settings.
