معرفی
Marc Tommasi is a Professor in Computer Science at the University of Lille, affiliated with the CRIStAL laboratory where he leads the Magnet research team. Previously, he was a founding member of the Mostrare project team at INRIA Lille. His academic career spans research in machine learning foundations and applications to structured data.
His research focuses on:
- Machine learning theory and algorithms
- Structured prediction for trees and graphs
- Tree automata and set constraints
- Decentralized learning systems
- Sparse representations for structured data
- Natural language processing techniques
- Information extraction from semi-structured data
His publication portfolio demonstrates consistent focus on spectral methods for graph learning, probabilistic tree modeling, and conditional random fields, with applications spanning network analysis, XML processing, and natural language tasks. Recent work emphasizes large-scale network modeling and spectral clustering techniques.
He has supervised 13 PhD students including ongoing work in decentralized machine learning (Mahsa Asadi), privacy-preserving speech recognition (Brij Srivastava), and multilingual dependency parsing (Mathieu Dehouck), with completed theses covering graph construction, spectral clustering, and tree transducer learning.
Significant research projects under his coordination include Pamela (decentralized ML), Lampada (structured data representations), Marmota (statistical ML for trees), Crotal (CRFs for NLP), ATASH (document transformations), and WebContent (information extraction). He maintains active involvement in the Magnet team at CRIStAL focusing on machine learning for graphs and NLP.
