SHORT BIO

Giannis holds an MSc degree in Data Science and Machine Learning from the National Technical University of Athens and an MEng in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the same institution.
He has research experience in machine learning and designing predictive algorithms with medical data. He also has hands-on experience in computer vision and the use of neural networks.
As a student he has been awarded 2nd prize in the 29th Mathematical Olympiad “Archimedes”.

RESEARCH INTERESTS

Giannis’ research interests include computer vision and algorithmic game theory. In particular, his research will focus on areas such as mechanism design and combinatorial auctions.

PhD research on "The Communication Complexity of Combinatorial Auctions in Graphs"
Abstract: We study truthful and non-truthful protocols for combinatorial auctions in which every item can be allocated to one of two agents, or more generally to a fixed number of agents. We show both positive and impossibility results for the communication complexity of approximating the optimal social welfare for general, subadditive, or XOS valuations.
