Hi. I'm Pablo Barrio.

Something about me...

Since February 2016, I have been a Software Engineer at Google in the Local Search and Maps team. I obtained my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from Columbia University, at the Computer Science Department, where I worked with Professor Luis Gravano and was part of the database group. My interests cover different aspects of information extraction from natural language text, focusing on efficiency and scalability. I got my undergraduate degree in Software Engineering at Universidad del Centro de la Provincia de Buenos Aires (UNICEN), in Argentina.

As a good Argentine, I am a big fan of fútbol (soccer in the US). My favorite team is San Lorenzo de Almagro (CASLA), the Pope's team!.  

Here’s some stuff I've worked on recently.

You can see them in a more traditional way on DBLP or Google Scholar
