Biography
Dr Marco Palomino's research lies on the field of natural language processing and, particularly, sentiment analysis, the process of computationally identifying and categorising opinions expressed in text.
Previously, I have carried out work on the following areas:
- Social robots: Technology has the potential to support the ageing in place of healthy older adults. I have investigated how home automation could enable older people to live independently for longer, while exploring the engagement of older adults with technology.
- Web-based horizon scanning: My research focused on the acquisition of real-time, web-based information on emerging trends, opportunities and constraints that might affect the probability of achieving management goals and objectives. At the time, my worked allowed for better preparedness and the incorporation of mitigation and exploitation into the policy making process.
- Web crawling: Search engines make use of large indices of word occurrences on Web pages to cross-reference Web sites to keywords. Such indices are maintained by crawlers, a special kind of computer program that browses the Web autonomously. I reviewed several alternatives to split a crawler's work into multiple processes and examined their weaknesses and strengths experimentally.
