Emmanouil (Manos) Kariotakis

Welcome! I am Manos and I am a PhD researcher in STADIUS - ESAT at KU Leuven, in Belgium. Along with my supervisor Prof. Aritra Konar, we are interested in topics related to Graph Machine Learning and Algorithmic Fairness.

Before joining KU Leuven, I was a member of the Signal Processing Laboratory of Institue of Computer Science - FORTH, as a research assistant. There, advised by Prof. Grigorios Tsagkatakis, Prof. Anastasios Kyrillidis and Prof. Panagiotis Tsakalides, we designed and studied a system that leverages sparsity across input and intermediate layers of a neural network that gets trained and operates in a distributed manner by resource-constrained workers.

Before that, I earned my BSc and integrated MEng in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Technical University of Crete (TUC). There, I had the opportunity to work with Prof. Aggelos Bletsas, focusing on efficient probabilistic asynchronous wireless in-network inference.
