Anna Pappa

I am an Associate Professor of Computer Science (Maîtresse de Conférences HDR) at the University of Paris 8. I am a permanent member of the Laboratoire d'Intelligence Artificielle et Sémantique de Données (LIASD) and lead the research team PASTIS. My research lies at the intersection of Natural Language Processing (NLP), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and the engineering of textual data. I focus on the design of structured and semantically annotated corpora, and their use in machine learning models for natural language tasks.
I also develop tools for semantic annotation and explore the creative potential of generative AI, especially in the domains of literature and theatre.
In 2023, I had the pleasure of co-founding the interdisciplinary research group GLAÇON with my colleagues R. Kyriakoglou and A. Millour. I hold a habilitation à diriger des recherches (HDR), which formally qualifies me to supervise doctoral research and affirms my academic leadership in the fields of artificial intelligence and semantic data processing.
Currently, I hold the following positions:

Co-director of the Computer Science degree program (Licence Informatique)

Head of the third year of the Bachelor's program (L3), (you can find all relevant informations about the degree program here

Responsible for apprenticeships and internships.
