About the Project

The School of Computing at Robert Gordon University is offering 5 exciting industry-lead PhD studentships for September 2022 (please see other listings). Successful candidates will be joining the top modern university in Scotland (GUG 2022) and a school (School of Computing) that was listed as the top modern in Scotland for Computer Science (GUG 2022).

The computing school is internationally recognised for research in AI & Reasoning, Computational Intelligence, Immersive Tech and Machine Vision. We have a thriving research environment supported by national and international funding to bring together early-career and early-stage researchers across all areas to carry out leading-edge applied computer science research with high industrial and societal impact. You will be joining a lively, friendly and supportive research and teaching community within the school.

Machine Learning for Process Mapping of Multi-Investment Platforms - Dr Kyle Martin

Multi-investment platforms allow financial experts to recommend multiple avenues for investment to customers. These platforms are multi-featured and tightly bound by strict regulation and legislation. Process mapping is a regulatory process to create a sequential map of every rule and dependency tied to each process in an investment platform. This requires substantial input from domain experts. We believe machine learning can streamline this endeavour, and highlight there is potential in Knowledge Graphs (KGs) and Case Based Planning (CBP). In this project, you will investigate KGs to represent process maps, allowing development of a CBP system for specific tasks such as process map validation and generation.
