Dr. Francesco Osborne

Research Fellow

I am Research Fellow at the Knowledge Media institute of the Open University in Milton Keynes, UK, where I lead the Scholarly Knowledge Mining (SKM) team. My research covers Artificial Intelligence, Information Extraction, Knowledge Graphs, Science of Science, Semantic Web, Research Analytics, and Semantic Publishing. I have authored more than eighty peer-reviewed publications in top journals and conferences in my research areas, including the Semantic Web Journal, ISWC, ESWC, WebConf, JCDL, TPDL, UMAP, Data Science, Data Intelligence, and the International Journal of Human-Computer Studies.

The SKM team aims at producing innovative approaches leveraging large-scale data mining, semantic technologies, machine learning and visual analytics for making sense of scholarly data and forecast research dynamics. We collaborate with a number of commercial organizations (e.g., Springer Nature, Elsevier, Microsoft, Digital Science, Figshare), non-profit organizations, and universities.
