Dr. Diana Inkpen is a Professor at the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Ottawa, ON, Canada. She obtained her Ph.D. in 2003 from the University of Toronto, Department of Computer Science. She obtained her B. Eng. and M.Sc. from the Department of Computer Science, at the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania, in 1994 and 1995, respectively. Her research interests and expertise are in natural language processing and artificial intelligence, particularly lexical semantics as applied to near synonyms and nuances of meaning, word and text similarity, classification of texts by emotion and mood, information retrieval from spontaneous speech, information extraction, and detecting signs of mental health problems from social media. Dr. Inkpen was an invited speaker for the Applied NLP track at the 29th Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Society Conference (FLAIRS 2016, Key Largo, FL, May 2016), for the 28th Canadian Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AI 2015, Halifax, NS, June 2015), and International Symposium on Information Management and Big Data (SimBig 2015, Cuzco, Peru, September 2015). She was Program Committee co-chair for the 25th Canadian Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AI 2012, Toronto, Canada, May 2012), for the 7th IEEE International Conference on Natural Language Processing and Knowledge Engineering (IEEE NLP-KE'11, Tokushima, Japan, November 2011), and for the 6th IEEE International Conference on Natural Language Processing and Knowledge Engineering (IEEE NLP-KE'10, Beijing, China, August 2010). She was named Visiting Professor of Computational Linguistics at the University of Wolverhampton, UK, from September 2010 to August 2013. She led and continues to lead many research projects with funding from Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC), and Ontario Centres of Excellence (OCE). The projects include industrial collaborations with companies from Ottawa, Toronto, and Montreal. She has published more than 30 journal papers, 100 conference papers, and 9 book chapters. She served on the program committees of many conferences in her field, as a reviewer for many journals, and as an associate editor of the Computational Intelligence journal and the Natural Language Engineering journal.
