About Me

Hi! I am Guilhem Fouilhé, a PhD student at IRIT, member of the MELODI team. I am also part of ANITI, one of the French AI “clusters” located in Toulouse.

Research Focus

I am currently focused on explainable AI from an interactive perspective. I explore conversational approaches to explanations, taking inspiration from how humans explain to each other.

Research Interests

I am also interested in the intersection of machine learning / data-driven methods and symbolic / rule-based approaches, which explains why I dedicated an important part of the previous months to study (and try to improve) explainability in planning, within the TUPLES project.

Another strong research interest I have is the in depth study of LLMs - their capabilities and limitations. I believe that this technology is strong enough to guess that it will have a strong impact on many fields, and I consider that we need stronger understanding and guarantees to use it safely in critical applications.

Background

I have a strong background in mathematics and computer science which first guided me towards theoretical aspects of AI. I solved many problems and learned a lot about practical aspects since then, and I am now trying to build increasingly realistic and useful systems.

Personal

I enjoy spending time outdoors in wide open spaces, and I have the chance to live not too far from the Pyrenees. I also travel when I have the chance, to learn more about different cultures and ways of life.
