Bashir Belaid

Dr. Mohamed-Bachir Belaid serves as a researcher at NILU based at Kjeller, Norway.

He earned his master’s degree in computer science and optimization in 2016 at USTO university in Oran, Algeria.

He then continued his studies at the University of Montpellier, south of France, where he earned his PhD in Constraint reasoning and Data mining. His PhD work was implemented as part of a library in the Choco constraint solver.

Before joining NILU, he worked as postdoc at Simula and at OsloMet. At Simula, he worked on constraint acquisition and qualitative constraints reasoning. At OsloMet, he worked on learning automata and Tsetlin Machine.

His expertise involves computer science, optimization, data mining, constraint reasoning, concept learning, qualitative constraints, and learning automata.

He also currently works on implementing AI and ML models on earth observation and various environmental applications.

Mohamed-Bachir Belaid has 7 publications at NILU:
