Assistant Professor position in 2021
Research
Research will take place within the Constraints and Machine Learning team of the Laboratoire d’Informatique Fondamentale d’Orléans (LIFO, EA 4022).
The Constraints and Machine Learning (CA) is a research team working on some specific aspects of Artificial Intelligence (AI). It is structured around 3 complementary axes: (i) Machine Learning and Data Mining (ii) Natural Language Processing and (iii) Constraints.
The recruited person will reinforce one or several themes of the team on axis (i) Machine Learning and Data Mining, in possible interactions with the other axes, on at least one of the following themes:
- the classes of problems studied (supervised, unsupervised or semi-supervised classification, reinforcement learning, pattern mining, etc.),
- the types of data (text data, temporal data, heterogeneous data, ...),
- the explainability or the integration of knowledge into learning mechanisms,
- Machine Learning and NLP,
- Machine Learning and Constraints, declarative approaches (Constraint Programming, SAT, etc.) for Machine Learning and Data Mining.
The research themes of the recruited person should be consistent with the team themes, both from the theoretical and applicative perspectives.

Teaching
The candidate will join the Computer Science department of the Orléans University of technology. Currently, there are three courses of study: the HND in IT, the Special year in IT and the Year 3 Bachelor web and mobile oriented. The second year of the HND as well as the
Bachelor can be followed by apprenticeship. As part of the reform of the BUT, these different courses will evolve towards a single course "BUT", part of which will be offered as an apprenticeship.
The candidate will work in the Computer Science BUT, in particular in the fields of systems and network administration and computer project management. He/she will participate in the pedagogical administration of these courses (responsibility for modules, monitoring of internship projects, supervision of supply teachers, etc.) as well as certain administrative responsibilities among those of the team, including year management, Moodle, support organization, student recruitment, etc.
Specific skills :
- Versatility (Architecture, IT project management, systems and networks, Programming, Analysis, Database),
- Ability to fit into an interdisciplinary framework,
- An opening/watch on societal issues related to IT professions would be a plus.
