Welcome
I’m an assistant professor at the Department of Operations and Decision
Systems of Université Laval. My research focuses on the (joint)
application of optimization and machine learning in decision-making contexts
for the development of state-of-art AI-based decision systems.
My research interests are:
- Optimization and operational research
- Combinatorial, mathematical, and multiobjective optimization
- Heuristics and metaheuristics
- Metasimulation and machine learning
- Big data analytics and decision making
- Interactions between optimization, simulation and machine learning
- Applications
- Humanitarian and industrial applications, business intelligence
My virtual home at the
Faculty of Business Administration of Université Laval is
