Her research output includes 200+ co-authored articles in international journals and proceedings of international conferences, as well as the organization of tutorials and workshops at international conferences, including: AAMAS, ICML and ECML. She is the former chairman of the BNVKI (BeNeLux association for Artificial Intelligence) and was a board member of ECCAI (European Coordinating Committee for Artificial Intelligence, currently named EurAI). Presently, she is a board member of IFAAMAS, The International Foundation for Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems. She studies theoretical aspects of\u00a0reinforcement learning\u00a0as well as applications including planning&amp;scheduling ,\u00a0telecom,\u00a0mechatronics and smart grids. More recently she also investigates how to make machine learning models more transparent and explainable to users.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_191\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/project.inria.fr\/fmai2019\/files\/2019\/04\/francois-schwarzentruber.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-191\" class=\"wp-image-191 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/project.inria.fr\/fmai2019\/files\/2019\/04\/francois-schwarzentruber-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"Fran\u00e7ois Schwarzentruber\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/project.inria.fr\/fmai2019\/files\/2019\/04\/francois-schwarzentruber-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/project.inria.fr\/fmai2019\/files\/2019\/04\/francois-schwarzentruber-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/project.inria.fr\/fmai2019\/files\/2019\/04\/francois-schwarzentruber.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-191\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fran\u00e7ois Schwarzentruber, Associate Professor at ENS Rennes (France), Research team Logica at IRISA<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Fran\u00e7ois Schwarzentruber (<a href=\"http:\/\/people.irisa.fr\/Francois.Schwarzentruber\/hdr\/\">Habilitation defense<\/a>)<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/people.irisa.fr\/Francois.Schwarzentruber\">Fran\u00e7ois Schwarzentruber<\/a> is associate professor at ENS Rennes (France).
