Bojan Božić is a lecturer and researcher with 11 years of experience applying AI, machine learning, NLP and Semantic Web technologies to problems like time-series prediction and multimedia retrieval. He combines academic rigor—holding a PhD in Computer Science—with practical software engineering roots from roles at Philips and the Austrian Institute of Technology, bridging research and production systems. At Technological University Dublin he teaches and researches ontology mapping, annotation of cultural resources and metadata-driven retrieval, while contributing front-end improvements to inclusive open-source projects such as the NumFOCUS DISCOVER Cookbook. His background in distributed systems and sensor/semantic projects gives him a rare cross-domain perspective on interoperable knowledge engineering and real-world data pipelines. Colleagues value him for turning complex semantic models into usable tools and interfaces that help cultural heritage and analytics projects scale.
