Intro:

I am a researcher at the University of Geneva since Mai 2003, working in the Geneva Artificial Intelligence Laboratory in the Department of Computer Science.
My main research interests are relational learning, kernel methods and metric learning.

Software:

• relational WEKA

Teaching:

• Data Mining
• Pattern Recognition (Analyse de Donnees et Reconnaissance de Formes)
• Algorithms and Heuristics for Optimization and Learning (Methodes et Heuristiques d'Optimisation et d'Apprentissage)
