Short Biography
Dr. Amelie Gyrard is post-doc researcher at Kno.e.sis - Ohio Center of Excellence in Knowledge-enabled Computing, Ohio, USA.
Previously, she was working at MINES Saint-Etienne, France, working within the Connected Intelligence - Knowledge Representation and Reasoning team.
She was also a post-doc at Insight Center for Data Analytics, National University of Galway and actively working in the scientific development and coordination of the FIESTA-IoT (Federated Interoperable Semantic IoT/Cloud Testbeds and Applications) EU H2020 project.
She has co-organized tutorials, workshops, and hackathons on the Semantic Web of Things related topics at ISWC 2016, ISWC 2017 and WWW 2017.
Her research interests are Software engineering for Semantic Web of Things and Internet of Things (IoT), semantic web best practices and methodologies, ontology engineering, reasoning and interoperability of IoT data.
She holds a Ph.D. from Eurecom since 2015 where she designed and implemented the Machine-to-Machine Measurement (M3) framework.
The title of her dissertation is "Designing Cross-Domain Semantic Web of Things Applications". An entire workflow to semantically annotate heterogeneous IoT data, a necessary step to reason on data to infer high-level abstractions and querying enriched data. This framework hides the complexity of using semantic web technologies to the developers by providing a package with the domain knowledge required to produce the entire workflow. Moreover, it shows the importance to combine heterogeneous applicative domains.
She already co-organized tutorials, workshops, and challenges on the Semantic Web of Things related topics. Her work is published in conferences, journals, and book chapters. She also disseminated her work in standardizations such as ETSI M2M, oneM2M, and W3C Web of Things. She is also a reviewer for IoT, Semantic Web related journals, and conferences.

Semantic Web of Things Research Projects (2012 - 2018)
Semantic Web of Things Framework (M3)
Machine-to-Machine Measurement (M3) is a framework to semantically annotate and easily interpret Internet of Things (IoT) data. M3 enables designing interoperable domain-specific or cross-domain Semantic Web of Things (SWoT) applications. Our main goals are to help developers for fast-prototyping of IoT applications and reducing the learning curve of integrating semantic web technologies. We mainly address semantic interoperability on sensor data, ontologies, reasoning on data to build Web of Things applications.
Ontology Catalogue for Internet of Things (LOV4IoT)
LOV4IoT (Linked Open Vocabularies for Internet of Things) references numerous ontology-based IoT projects:
- Almost 400 ontology-based projects for IoT, smart cities, etc.
- Almost 20 domains relevant to IoT referenced such as building, smart grid, smart agriculture, smart transportation, healthcare, etc.
- We provide the LOV4IoT ontology catalogue as an HTML view.
- We also provide the LOV4IoT RDF dataset.
- LOV4IoT is an extension of the LOV (linked Open Vocabularies) catalogue.
Semantic Web Best Practices (PerfectO)
PerfectO references, classifies and provides tools to encourage Semantic Web Best Practices to achieve Semantic Interoperability by focusing on ontology improvement.
Sensor-based Linked Open Rules (S-LOR)
S-LOR (Sensor-based Linked Open Rules) is a rule-based reasoning engine and an approach for sharing and reusing interoperable rules to deduce meaningful knowledge from sensor measurements.
Unifying IoT Data & Domain Knowledge (M3 Language)
Unifying IoT Data & Domain Knowledge with the M3 language
Securing IoT application (STAC)
The STAC (Security Toolbox: Attack & Countermeasure) application assists users in:
- Designing secured applications or architectures.
- Be aware of main security threats.
- Exploring security in various technologies such as sensor, cellular (2G, 3G, 4G), wireless networks (Wi-Fi, Wimax, Zigbee, Bluetooth), Mesh/M2M/Manet, network management, web applications, cryptography, attacks & countermeasures, security properties (e.g., authentication), etc.
