Hi! My name is Fanny Jourdan.

I’m a researcher in the DEEL team at the Technological Research Institut (IRT) Saint Exupery in Toulouse. 🔍 My research topics are explainability (XAI), robustness and logic in Natural Language Processing (NLP) algorithms.

I am currently finishing my PhD in mathematics and computer science at the Institut de Recherche en Informatique de Toulouse (IRIT) and the Artificial and Natural Intelligence Toulouse Institute (ANITI) under the supervision of Nicholas Asher and Laurent Risser.

Previously I did a master’s in mathematics and data sciences at École polytechnique, where I co-founded the Artificial Intelligence Alumni Association (AlumnIA). Then I did another master’s in digital economics and innovation at Paris-Dauphine University.

I’m committed to the fight against gender inequality in STEM 🤖 (see: ANITI’s diversity commission and women and mathematics association). In my spare time, I practice crossfit and weightlifting. I also danced ballet for over 17 years before that.
