Dr. Hichem Omrani is currently a research scientist (R3) at the Luxembourg Institute of Socio-Economic Research (LISER). his research group is hosted at the Urban development and Mobility department. He received his Ph.D. in Computer Science in 2007, from the Technology University of Compiegne (UTC-France). Dr. Omrani is also an Adjunct Associate Professor at the University of Concordia (Canada). He conducts research in the framework of several competitive projects supported mainly by the FNR. His research focuses on data science, applied statistics, machine learning, complex system modelling applied in a wide range of applications (environment, mobility, policy evaluation, and individual exposure to the environments, and public heath). He supervised several master/PhD students, young researchers and act as a reviewer for several international journals. During his lastest scientific leave (2016-2017), he served as Senior Visiting Researcher at Purdue University (USA), working jointly with Dr. Bryan Pijanowski, an internationally recognized specialist in the field of environmental science and soundscape. Dr. Omrani is (co-) author of 45+ scientific articles on peer-reviewed international journals, 100+ papers in conferences proceedings, and 2 book chapters in volumes with ISBN. His publications have been cited, so far, 1500 times (source: Google scholar). My Google scholar H-index is 17 (i10-index: 26).
