I am a senior fellow at the Jozef Stefan Institute, Department of
Knowledge Technologies.  I got my Ph.D. in Computer Science in 1988
from University of Ljubljana.  I was a Fulbright scholar at the
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, visiting profesor at
George Mason University (VA) and at the Technical University of
Vienna and senior research fellow at the Austrian Research Institute
for Artificial Intelligence.
My main research interests are in machine learning,
logic-based knowledge representation and model-based reasoning.
Currently, my research focus is in improving machine learning and
data/text/web mining techniques by using deep, common sense knowledge.

A web rule language with declarative as well as procedural
(operational) semantics. Further, the language should cover not only
manually created rules, but machine generated ones as well.

At JSI we have extensive experience in large scale text and web
mining.  I expect to convey the importance of automatically extracted
relations, rules, ontologies,... from the web data, and hope to
influence the language design to include the necessary expressivity.
