Prof. Dr. Heiko Paulheim is a Professor of Data Science and currently serves as University Vice President at the University of Mannheim. He leads the Data and Web Science Group (DWS), which focuses on Web Data Mining, Knowledge Graphs, and Semantic Web technologies. His research group contributes to open source knowledge graphs like DBpedia and develops new knowledge graphs such as WebIsALOD and DBkWik. As of October 1, 2024, he has limited teaching capacity due to his vice presidential duties. Prof. Paulheim's research interests span Knowledge Graphs, Semantic Web, Web Data Mining, Machine Learning, and Natural Language Processing. His work particularly focuses on knowledge graph refinement, embedding techniques (notably RDF2vec), and applications in various domains including news recommendation, biomedical informatics, and environmental monitoring. His group develops practical tools like the RapidMiner Linked Open Data Extension and RDF2vec for knowledge graph applications. His recent publications demonstrate a strong focus on knowledge graph embeddings, with particular attention to RDF2vec variants, applications in news recommendation systems, biomedical data integration, and spatio-temporal knowledge graphs for environmental monitoring. His work bridges theoretical advances in knowledge representation with practical applications across multiple domains. Among his notable achievements are a nomination for the Best Paper Award at CAiSE 2025 and securing an Open Science Grant for the SpatialBenchRAG project. His research has significant impact in both academic and industrial contexts, with multiple papers accepted at top conferences like ISWC and ESWC. Prof. Paulheim has supervised numerous PhD students including Alexander Brinkmann and Michael Schlechtinger, and has led several research projects including the DFG Project Mine@LOD, State of BW Project SyKoW², and BMBF Project DS4DM. His group maintains strong industry connections with partners like SAP AG, Daimler AG, and IDS.
