Konstantinos Bougiatiotis

I develop efficient methods for learning and reasoning over graphs, with applications in biomedical discovery and financial document analysis.

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science and a research associate at the Institute of Informatics and Telecommunications, NCSR “Demokritos”. I am part of the Document Intelligence Centre of Excellence (DICE), working with Dr. Georgios Paliouras.

My research spans multi-relational graph representations, tensor rank estimation, and the use of graph-based tools to support small language models.

News

Aug 30, 2026	FastRank is now available in the AISTATS 2026 proceedings. Explore the method and code for fast tensor rank estimation.
Jul 14, 2026	Two preprints explore graph-based tools for small language models: molecular property prediction and knowledge graph grounding for reasoning. Both were presented at Causal NeSy @ ESWC 2026.
Apr 16, 2026	Our work on identifying drug repurposing candidates for rare neuro-muscular disorders is published in JAMIA Open, connecting biomedical knowledge graphs with machine learning.
