Keywords: Deep learning for NLP, fundamental aspects of machine learning
Teaching:
Computer Science Department – Institut Galilée
Location: Villetaneuse Campus – Sorbonne Paris Nord University
The Computer Science department of Institut Galilée contributes in different curricula of the institute:
Bachelor, Master, graduate school, Sup’Galilée engineering school. The recruited person will be part of the Computer Science Department. S/he will give lectures in different areas of computer science at all levels and curricula, particularly in the basic courses.
The department seeks expertise in many domains, more specifically in object oriented programming, data bases and operating systems. The ability to deliver courses in several of these specific areas will be strongly appreciated. It is expected that the hired Professor will be willing to become actively involved in the management of the department by taking on pedagogic responsibilities such as managing curricula and, in the short term, direction of studies at SupGalilée.
In addition, the appointee will be expected to become involved in the various actions that will be developed within the UNINOVIS European alliance (https://uninovis.eu/academic-alliance/).

Research
The research carried out at Laboratoire d’Informatique de Paris-Nord (LIPN – CNRS UMR 7030) is organized around six groups and includes machine learning, combinatorial optimization, design and analysis of combinatorial models at the interface of physics geometry and algorithmics, foundations of computation and formal verification of systems, natural language processing and knowledge representation.
In addition, LIPN is one of the laboratories of the MathSTIC Research Federation, which brings together LIPN, the Mathematics laboratory (LAGA) and the Information Transfer and Processing laboratory (L2TI). Finally, its RCLN group (Representation of Knowledge and Natural Language) contributes to LabEx “Empirical Foundations of Linguistics” (EFL).
LIPN is seeking a Full Professor whose research profile may fit within the following topics, in order of priority: deep learning for natural language processing (RCLN group); foundational aspects of machine learning (A3 group); any existing research topic in one of the other research groups of the lab (AOC, CALIN, logic, verification).
The appointee will be expected to play a leading role in the development of regional, national and international collaborations, both with academic institutions and with industrial research centers.
