Eric Van Horenbeeck
Eric Van Horenbeeck received his PhD in 2008 from the University of Antwerp with a thesis on Topical Facets: Semantic Patterns
between Documents and the Vocabulary. This subject is about unsupervised information discovery in unstructured texts by
a computer program. Eric's experience with algorithms and software in the linguistic domain allows him to support the research demands
of the Inputlog user.
