Christophe Roche is a French researcher born on 23 August 1956. As a university professor, he is one of the first to have shown the value of ontology[1] for terminology at the origin of its conceptual renewal in the early 2000s.
Biography
Christophe Roche, PhD in artificial intelligence (1984, Grenoble Polytechnic Institute, France), joined the University of Savoie as one of the first full Professors in artificial intelligence in France (1988) at the age of 32. Since 2009 he is also an associate researcher at the Nova University of Lisbon where he has been teaching terminology and ontology. Since 2015 he is also a special appointment professor at the Liaocheng University (Shandong province, China).
Christophe Roche spent several years in private research companies in artificial intelligence and has been a professor in Switzerland (Neuchâtel) in charge of a post-graduate course in AI. In 1991 he set up the Software Engineering Laboratory of Savoie (LGIS n°950191, French Ministry of Research) in charge of the first bachelor’s and master’s degrees in computer science at the University of Savoie. In 2003, he launched the Condillac research team in knowledge engineering (ERT n°20032288, French Ministry of Research), now dedicated to terminology and ontology. In 2017, he launched a new laboratory at the University of Liaocheng dedicated to knowledge engineering and terminology (KETRC) in the framework of a memorandum between the University of Savoie-Mont-Blanc and the University of Liaocheng and of a Talent project that he won the same year.
In 2007, Christophe Roche initiated the TOTh International Conferences (Terminology & Ontology: Theories and applications) he organizes every year at the University of Savoie and has been leading the scientific committee since. He is also the chairman of the AFNOR X03A Standardization Commission "Terminology - Principles and Coordination" (mirror committee of the ISO TC37)[2]. ISO expert, he was the project leader of the last version of the international standard ISO 1087 on " Terminology work and terminology science - Vocabulary"[3].
Christophe Roche has participated in several international and European projects: H2020 Elexis, FP7 (AthenaPlus, Linked Heritage, Siera), Tempus (Pal-Gov), InterReg (IV: Ontoreverse, III: Gicom, II: Mapping), Eureka (PVS98), Xu Guangqi (China), Talent (Shandong province, National), Paulif (Portugal), etc.
Finally, within the Condillac research team, he has established privileged collaboration[4] in the field of terminology and ontology with the Nova University of Lisbon and the University of Lia[4]ocheng (Shandong province, China).
Domain of Research
Christophe Roche's research focuses on relationships between human knowledge and languages, either natural or formal, with a particular interest in terminology as a scientific discipline (E. Wüster's General Theory of Terminology, ISO international standards on terminology). He was one of the first to show the value of ontology from knowledge engineering for so-called "classical" terminology[5], thus authorising their operationalisation for information processing purposes (1st prize for information technologies from the Rhône-Alpes Futur Foundation in 2001).
Christophe Roche is at the heart of the conceptual renewal of terminology after the linguistic turn it underwent at the end of the 20th century. In 2007, he proposed a new paradigm, that of ontoterminology[6][7], a terminology whose conceptual system is a formal ontology[8].
Christophe Roche is working on a new theory of concepts for terminology in the context of the revision of the ISO 1087 and ISO 704 standards[9], to meet the challenges of the digital society that led to the revision of these two standards[10].
Since 2011 (European projects FP7 "Linked Heritage" and "AthenaPlus") his main domain of application is digital humanities[11][12].
