Marc Plantevit

Marc Plantevit is a Full Professor at EPITA, member of the Laboratoire LRDE (LRDE). Previously, he served as an Associate Professor at University Claude Bernard Lyon 1 (2010–2021), leading the Data Mining & Machine Learning group at LIRIS lab. He holds a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Montpellier (2008), supervised by Maguelonne Teisseire and Anne Laurent at LIRMM Lab. His research focuses on foundational data mining, graph mining, subgroup discovery, and explainable AI. He is an editorial board member of Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery Journal and has held roles such as CAPES NSI jury member and former head of the Data Mining & Machine Learning group at LIRIS.

Research Interests: Data Mining, Machine Learning, Explainable AI, Graph Mining, Subgroup Discovery, Exceptional Model Mining, Constraint-based Pattern Mining, and applications in neuroscience and energy systems. His work explores interpretable AI, GNN explainability, and interdisciplinary applications like odor perception modeling and electricity price forecasting.

Key Contributions:

• Best Paper Award at EGC'22 for work on GNN representations.
• Active in program committees for ECMLPKDD, IJCAI, and IEEE ICDM.
• Supervised PhD students working on GNN explainability, electricity forecasting, and machine learning in exposome studies.

Labs & Teams: LRDE (EPITA), previously involved with LIRIS (UMR CNRS 5205) and collaborative projects with institutions like INSA Lyon and ISGlobal (Barcelona).
