About me

I have recently obtained my PhD from Télécom Paris under the supervision of Florence d'Alché-Buc and Pierre Laforgue.
My work focuses on leveraging random projections to scale kernel methods up to large datasets and combine them with deep neural networks to solve structured prediction.

Previously, I jointly graduated from Mines Saint-Etienne and Master M2 MVA at ENS Paris-Saclay.

Research Interests

I'm globally interested in Machine Learning, and for the moment focus my attention on

  • Kernel Methods and Sketching Algorithms

  • Structured Prediction

  • Statistical Learning Theory

  • Deep Learning

My list of publications is available here.
