[DMANET] PhD position

****************************
Dear colleagues,

One PhD position is opened at Université Sorbonne Paris
Nord, France (thèse CIFRE). The position is in collaboration with
Horizontal Sofware (https://www.horizontalsoftware.com/).


Horizontal Software (HSW), created in 2010, is a publisher of SaaS and App
solutions, specialized in management and optimized planning of human
resources. The E-OPTIM solution provided by HSW is intended for the
planning and optimization of human resources, taking into account
heterogeneous constraints: legal, organizational and social.
A company's performance is closely linked to well-being at work. It is
therefore very important to take into account employee preferences in the
development of schedules. The goal of the PhD thesis is to develop
heuristic algorithms that take into account employee preferences in
addition to the standard constraints (legal, organizational and
social). This additional requirement poses a severe challenge as it
complicates a problem that is already difficult to solve. To overcome this
challenge the candidate will use the most advanced techniques in the field
of mathematical optimization and artificial intelligence.

Required competences

-Good experience with mathematica optimization
-Knowledge in machine learning and deep learning is considered as a plus.
-Excellent programming skills.


To apply or to have more information, please contact Roberto Wolfler Calvo (
