About me

I am Isseïnie Sinouvassane (formerly Calviac), a PhD student in computer science at IRISA, in Rennes, France. I am supervised by Luis Galárraga and Alexandre Termier in the LACODAM team. My PhD is about How-Provenance Polynomials for Efficient and Greener Rule Mining.

I was formely a student at the École Normale Supérieure de Rennes, where I obtained my Master's and my Magistère Degree in Computer Science. Prior to that, I studied in preparatory classes (mathematics and physics specialization, computer science option) and I obtained my Bachelor's Degree at the ENS Rennes.

Research

I am interested in algorithmics, machine learning and data mining. I also like to study complexity theory.

Currently, I am working on rule mining in knowledge graphs.
