Summary
Albert Meroño-Peñuela is a Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) in Computer Science at King’s College London with 13 years of experience at the intersection of AI, semantic web, and digital humanities. His research specializes in semantics of music, multimodal knowledge graphs, and knowledge representation and reasoning for cultural heritage, informed by a PhD in Artificial Intelligence from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. He led large-scale knowledge graph engineering for CLARIAH and built billion-triple graphs for history and musicology, and his Linked Data API automation (grlc.io) has been adopted by organizations like Elsevier and TNO. Albert blends rigorous academic research with practical engineering—creating tools and pipelines for harmonizing messy tabular data and separating layout from knowledge in digital archives. Based in London, he is known for translating humanities questions into scalable semantic solutions and for making research artifacts broadly reusable across cultural-informatics projects.
