Sareh Aghaei

Sareh Aghaei serves as a Research Fellow at the Institute of Management Sciences within the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Management at Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien), focusing on knowledge-driven solutions for industrial maintenance and healthcare systems.

Her academic credentials include:

• Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Innsbruck (2023)
• M.Sc. in Computer Science from the University of Isfahan

Dr. Aghaei's research integrates knowledge graphs with natural language processing and machine learning to develop explainable AI systems. Her work spans industrial maintenance optimization, clinical decision support, and tourism information systems, emphasizing ontology engineering and question-answering frameworks that transform unstructured data into actionable knowledge.

Analysis of her 2021-2025 publications reveals a strategic shift toward domain-specific knowledge graph applications, particularly in maintenance management (2022-2025) and health informatics (2023-2024). This evolution demonstrates increasing specialization in medical knowledge representation while maintaining foundational contributions to semantic web technologies established in earlier works like her 2011 Web services architecture research.

Her scholarly recognition includes:

• netidee Grant Call 17: Austria's award for most innovative doctoral theses

Dr. Aghaei's doctoral research was funded through the netidee scholarship. Current documentation indicates no active student supervision or major grant leadership beyond her postdoctoral position at TU Wien.

Within TU Wien's Institute of Management Sciences, she contributes to research bridging production engineering and artificial intelligence, developing knowledge-based systems for predictive maintenance and industrial process optimization through interdisciplinary collaboration.
