Hello, I'm Julien Romero
AI, Knowledge Graphs, and Responsible Machine Learning
Associate Professor at Télécom SudParis (Institut Polytechnique de Paris).
I work on AI systems that combine knowledge graphs, LLMs, and graph learning, with a focus on responsible and open research.
About my work
I am an Associate Professor at Télécom SudParis, part of the Institut Polytechnique de Paris. My work sits at the crossroads of artificial intelligence, knowledge graphs, graph learning, and large language models (LLMs).
Before joining Télécom SudParis, I completed my PhD at Télécom Paris in the DIG team, under the supervision of Fabian Suchanek and Nicoleta Preda. I then joined the Max Planck Institute for Informatics (D5: Databases and Information Systems group) for a postdoc with Gerhard Weikum and Simon Razniewski.
I co-direct the DataAI Master’s program at IP Paris and direct the MAIA apprenticeship Master at Télécom SudParis, where I help design programs that bridge strong theoretical foundations with real-world applications. I care deeply about educational innovation and preparing students to work responsibly with AI.
My research interests include commonsense and knowledge-based reasoning, graph-based learning, LLMs and NLP, intelligent information systems, and responsible AI. More broadly, I am interested in how technology, science, and society interact.
