Qitong WANG

BDA Best PhD Thesis Award 2024 (Lipade)

Our former LIPADE (computer science) PhD student, Qitong Wang, supervised by Prof Themis Palpanas, won the prestigious BDA Best PhD Thesis Award 2024, for
his innovative work on Data Series Indexes that Learn.

Qitong developed novel machine learning methods that render high-d vector similarity search (a very important and challenging problem) more efficient and scalable.

Qitong is now continuing his career as a researcher at Harvard
University (USA).

This is the 3nd time that a LIPADE graduate wins this award that recognizes the best PhD PhD Thesis in France in the area of data management. The previous two recipients were Paul Boniol  in 2022, and Michele Linardi in 2019.
