LS2N, Nantes Université
Since 2011, I am Ass. Professor of Computer Science at Nantes Université, Polytech Nantes. I am the head of the Data Science Master program since 2017. Before that, I obtained my PhD in 2009, University of La Rochelle, France. I obtained the HDR in 2024 at Nantes Université.
I am doing my research with the LS2N lab, and more specifically with the DUKe research team.
My general research area is applied machine learning for comparing and learning representation of complex data, with an emphasis on graphs. I am also interested in the general thematic of equity, fairness, transparency and explainability of AI models being used : graph neural networks, graph transformers, reinforcement learning. Applications particularly include Open Educationnal Ressources : recommendation, question-answering, difficulty assessment, curricula …
