I am a PhD student and research assistant in the Department of Computer Science at Queen Mary University of London, where I am a member of the Information Retrieval group. My PhD is on the Evaluation of Structured Document Retrieval. My supervisor is Mounia Lalmas.

I am interested in most things to do with information retrieval, but in particular, I enjoy working on the development of metrics for the evaluation of content-oriented XML retrieval, building models for structured document retrieval and applying these to XML and MPEG-7 data and the Web, investigating content analysis and knowledge representation techniques for information retrieval, interface design for IR systems, personalisation, recommendation, user modelling and user profile learning, and the combination of information retrieval and databases.
