Olivier Cappé is a CNRS research director at the Department of Computer Science of École Normale Supérieure (ENS), which is part of PSL University. He also serves as associate professor at PSL University and director of the IASD (Artificial Intelligence, Systems, Data) Master's program, a collaborative initiative between University Paris Dauphine, ENS, and Mines Paris. His academic career spans over 25 years with significant contributions across machine learning, statistics, and signal processing. Dr. Cappé's research trajectory has evolved from foundational work in speech and audio processing during the 1990s, through Bayesian methods and Markov Chain Monte Carlo in the 2000s, to his current focus on online learning and multi-armed bandit models. His theoretical contributions to reinforcement learning, particularly regarding exploration-exploitation tradeoffs and non-stationary environments, have established him as a leading figure in the field. His work bridges rigorous statistical theory with practical applications in resource allocation, bidding strategies, and influence maximization. His recent publications demonstrate sustained innovation in machine learning theory with practical relevance. Key research themes include bandit algorithms that adapt to changing environments, theoretical foundations of online optimization, and privacy-preserving machine learning techniques. His work consistently appears in top-tier venues including NeurIPS, ICML, and JMLR, reflecting both theoretical depth and practical impact.

Petropulu and Z. Yang) IEEE SP Society 1995 Young Author Best Paper Award Dr. Cappé has mentored over 20 PhD students and postdoctoral researchers throughout his career, with his advisees securing prestigious positions at institutions including University de Lille, Imperial College London, Twitter, and major research laboratories. His research has been consistently funded through competitive grants including multiple ANR projects (ALICIA, SIMINOLE, MGA, KERNSIG), demonstrating sustained recognition of his research program's significance and quality. He is affiliated with the Centre Sciences des Données (CSD) at ENS and has held significant leadership roles including Deputy Scientific Director of the INS2I Institute of CNRS (2017-2023), director of LTCI laboratory (2013-2016), and head of the STIC department at University of Paris-Saclay (2016-2017). He co-authored the forthcoming illustrated book 'Tout comprendre (ou presque) sur l'intelligence artificielle' published by CNRS éditions in April 2025.
