research and data science. The PhD is in collaboration with Padam
(www.padam.io <http://www.padam.io/>), a company working on a turnkey
platform and developing simulation tools for on-demand transportation
systems.
At the interface of 2 hot and trend topics, the project will be oriented 
on the following aspects:
- The design of exact and heuristics algorithms for routing problems to 
efficiently tackle instance of the company
- The use of original data science and probabilistic methods to improve 
routing decisions
To achieve this goal, the candidate will have to suggest novel 
algorithms combining advanced optimization techniques (e.g. mathematical 
programming models, hyper- and meta- heuristics) with robust and 
data-driven optimization techniques.
Applicants should have (or be about to finish) a relevant master degree. 
Good knowledge of operations research techniques (integer linear 
programming, graphs etc.) and data science/machine learning tools are 
strongly recommended. The applicant should also have good programming 
skills in any programming language. Expertise in working with a 
unix-like system (e.g. ubuntu) and knowledge in database models will be 
appreciated.
The PhD thesis will take place in 2 locations:
- Paris XIII University - 99, av. Jean-Baptiste Clément - 93430 
Villetaneuse
- Padam - 34 boulevard Sebastopol  - 75001  Paris
