Panagiotis Karras is a Professor at the Department of Computer Science , University of Copenhagen , with a faculty affiliate status at Aarhus University . His research focuses on robust and versatile methods for data access, mining, and representation. Education: MSc in Electrical and Computer Engineering from National Technical University of Athens , PhD in Computer Science from University of Hong Kong Research Interests: Spanning data management systems, graph algorithms, and privacy-preserving data publishing, his work addresses challenges in efficient query processing, influence propagation in networks, and semantic-aware data compression. Notable contributions include adaptive indexing techniques, graph alignment frameworks, and algorithms for fair stable marriage problems. Recent Publications (2024-2025): Focus on graph alignment, subgraph matching, and influence maximization, with applications to knowledge graphs, social networks, and time-series data analytics. Scientific Recognition: 2008 Young Scientist Award from the Hong Kong Institute of Science Keynote invitations at ACM SIGKDD and IEEE ICDE Professor Karras actively seeks motivated PhD students to collaborate on these research directions. His lab maintains a powerful compute cluster and modern facilities for data-intensive research.
