Role Summary

This is an exciting opportunity for working at the interface between data management and generative AI at the Neuro-symbolic AI Group at the IDIAP Research Institute (Switzerland).

The project aims to develop new analytical infrastructure paradigms to support semantic querying and inference over heterogeneous and distributed data sources in the context of Pharma. The vision behind the project is to extend the state-of-art in the direction of delivering infrastructures which allows for the creation of data-based digital twins, where end-users (domain experts, analysts) could perform seamless natural language (NL) analytical queries over semantically integrated data sources (with an emphasis on relational, knowledge graph (KG) data sources).

Moreover, the project will develop a declarative/neuro-symbolic inference engine which allows for the implementation of the vision of a digital twin based on the semantically integrated datasets. The project will systematically establish and evaluate the complementary analytical value on the integration of the controlled use of LLMs and ontology/KG-based representations.

This project is developed in close collaboration with the research lab of a large pharmaceutical company near Vevey region, where the PhD candidate will have the opportunity to work closely together with data analysts, software engineers and domain experts and develop MVPs aiming to achieve a Self-Service Insights platform.

All queries related to the advertised position can be sent to Andr Freitas.
