'There is a great deal of implicit connections between pieces of information in different datasources. Making these implicit connections explicit enables us to deal with a more enriched data in exploratory search. My research lies on exploiting machine learning approaches to establish and follow connections between content of the digitized cultural heritage data and the Linked Open Data cloud. The resulting collection will have unprecedented power, with a wealth of information in semantic annotation and links which helps a searcher explore this rich content.'
