In mathematics, LaTeX is the de facto standard to prepare documents, e.g., scientific publications. While some formulae are still developed using pen and paper, more complicated mathematical expressions used more and more often with computer algebra systems. Mathematical expressions are often manually transcribed to computer algebra systems. The goal of my doctoral thesis is to improve the efficiency of this workflow. My envisioned method will automatically semantically enrich mathematical expressions so that they can be imported to computer algebra systems and other systems that can take advantage of the semantics, such as search engines or automatic plagiarism detection systems. These imports should preserve the essential semantic features of the expression.
