Short bio

I graduated my PhD in Statistics and Machine Learning [CV] at

• INRIA Bordeaux - Sud-Ouest, in ALEA and CQFD teams
• Institut de Mathématiques de Bordeaux (IMB), CNRS UMR 5251
• Université de Bordeaux

My advisors were François Caron (U. Oxford) and Marie Chavent (U. Bordeaux, INRIA).

From Nov. 2009 to Jun. 2013, I was R&D engineer at INRIA Bordeaux in ALEA team.

I completed my Master’s degree in Mathematical Modeling at the french INSA engineering school.

Research interests

• Bayesian (nonparametric) modeling and inference
• Probabilistic low-rank modeling
• Statistical machine learning
• Recommender systems, collaborative filtering
• Monte Carlo methods: MCMC, SMC

I co-organized the Statistical Machine Learning Reading Group in Bordeaux.

I was member of the ANR project BNPSI.
