Pavlos Moraitis
Professor
LIPADE/UPC
I am a Professor of Computer Science in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Paris City University (France). I have been director of the Laboratory of Informatics Paris Descartes (LIPADE) for the period 2009-2019. I am head of the Distributed Artificial Intelligence Group and director of the Distributed Artificial Intelligence (DAI) Master degree. My academic degrees include a Diploma in Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens, Greece (or National Metsovion Polytechnic), a M.Sc. in Computer Science, a Ph.D. in Artificial Intelligence and an Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches (Habilitation for Research Supervising) in Artificial Intelligence, all from the Paris Dauphine University (France). Before starting my academic career I held a consulting engineer position with Capgemini, a leading software advisory company. I was scientific responsible of the work involving agent technology in several European and industrial projects and I have collaborated for several years with software (SingularLogic-Greece) and industrial (THALES-France) companies on the application of agent technology in real world applications. Since May 2019 I am co-founder and CEO of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) startup ARGUMENT THEORY (AT) supported by ERGANEO, a French investment company that specializes in disruptive innovations. ARGUMENT THEORY offers the rAIson platform, a no-code symbolic artificial intelligence (AI) development platform specializing in the modeling and development of automated decision-making systems. The technology behind the rAIson platform is based on computational argumentation, a modern approach to (Symbolic) Artificial Intelligence, an AI with reasoning and behavioral capabilities similar to that of a human. Argument Theory will open the rAIson platform to the public soon... I was an elected member of the Board of Directors of the European Association for Multi-Agent Systems (EURAMAS) (2012-2018), co-founder of the International Workshop Series on “Argumentation in Multi-Agent Systems” (and co-chair of the 1st, 2nd, 5th and 12th edition of this Workshop), general chair and co-organizer of the 8th European Conference on Multi-Agent Systems (EUMAS'10) and finance chair of the 13th International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems (AAMAS'14). I also served as program committee member in numerous international conferences and as reviewer in several international journals.
