Evangelos Kanoulas’s research focuses on building artificial intelligence agents to process, analyse, mine and understand the natural language in texts, and serve users with the right information at the right time.

As professor at the UvA, Kanoulas will focus on data-driven decision making, by effectively automating laborious and error-prone manual work on text processing.
