I am a Professor (HDR) in the ORAILIX team of the Data Analytics and Machine Learning pôle of the Computer Science Laboratory (LIX) at École Polytechnique, of the Institut Polytechnique de Paris.
My current research interests involves multi-label and probabilistic inference, explainabile and robust methods, and methods for learning from data streams and sequential data, including reinforcement learning (alongside other topics), including applications in medicine, energy, and transport.
Prior to becoming Professor (HDR 2017) I was Assistant Professor (also at LIX, Ecole Polytechnique), following postdoc research at INFRES Télécom Paris (2016), Aalto University, Finland (2013-2016) and the Dept. TSC at the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain (2010-2013). I obtained my PhD in 2010 from the University of Waikato, New Zealand. My Bachelor of Computing and Mathematical Sciences (Hons.) degree is also from Waikato.
