Michalis Vazirgiannis is a Professor in the Department of Informatics at the Athens University of Economics and Business (AUEB), specializing in data mining and machine learning with applications in web and social network analysis. His work bridges theoretical algorithms and real-world scalability challenges. Education: Bachelor Degree in Informatics, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 1986 Master (M.Sc.) in Robotics, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 1988 Master (M.Sc.) in Knowledge Based Systems, Heriot Watt University, Edinburgh, 1989 Ph.D. in Informatics, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 1994 Research Focus: Professor Vazirgiannis pioneers clustering algorithms with subjective/objective validation, distributed feature selection for evolving graphs, and temporal link analysis for dynamic page ranking. His research addresses critical gaps in semi-supervised learning for large-scale web and social networks, emphasizing dimensionality reduction and ranking predictability in temporal contexts. Publication Trends: His 2007-dominated publications reveal a strategic shift toward graph-based web mining, with recurring themes of distributed processing (P2P similarity search), clustering validity frameworks, and semantic web personalization. The work consistently targets scalability bottlenecks in real-world network data. Scientific Recognition: ERCIM Post-doctoral Scholarship (2001) Marie Curie European Scholarship (2006) Leadership & Collaboration: As ERASMUS coordinator for AUEB's Informatics Department and editorial board member of Intelligent Data Analysis journal, he bridges academia and industry. His EU project leadership (FP6 SQO-OSS, Marie Curie NGWeMiS) and program committee roles (IEEE/ICDM 2008, ECML/PKDD 2008) highlight his influence in data mining standardization. International collaborations span INRIA, Fraunhofer, Max Planck, and IBM Research. Technical Innovation: His patent contributions and invited lectures at ECML/PKDD 2006/SIAM/SDM 2006 demonstrate applied impact, particularly in web personalization engines (SEWeP) and evolving graph analytics.
