I am a PhD student in the Machine Learning for Integrative Genomics team at Institut Pasteur and the Pinello Lab at Harvard Medical School. Co-supervised by Laura Cantini and Luca Pinello, my research focuses on developping methods based on probability, statistics and machine learning to infer Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs) from temporal single-cell data. I hold a Master’s degree in Mathematics, Vision, and Learning (Master MVA) from ENS Paris-Saclay and an engineering degree from ENSC Bordeaux INP. I also have research experience in applied mathematics and machine learning through internships at Inria and Ubisoft La Forge.
Master MVA (Mathematics, Vision, Learning) - 18.2/20The MVA (Mathematics, Vision, Learning) is a Master 2 Research program created in 1996 by Robert Azencott. It is run by the Mathematics Department of ENS Paris-Saclay, co-accredited with the Institut Polytechnique de Paris, and shared with the École Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées and Université Paris Cité.

Ubisoft La Forge is an open research and development initiative that brings together researchers and experts to bridge the gap between academic research and innovation in the video game world.
Inria is the French national research institute for digital science and technology. I joined the project-team ASTRAL which is mainly focused on advanced statistical and probabilistic methods for the analysis and the control of complex stochastic systems.
Pollen Robotics is a Startup working on Reachy, an expressive open-source humanoid robot programmable with Python and ROS. Developed with state-of-the-art AI & Robotics technologies, this robot can also be remotely teleoperated with VR.
Smartmoov is a Startup that enhances learning to drive using an application linked to an in-vehicle camera. The application automatically detects the student’s mistakes and creates statistics on the driving lesson.
IRISA is a research center of excellence with scientific priorities such as bioinformatics, systems security, new software architectures, virtual reality, big data analysis and artificial intelligence.
Theoretical and empirical study of the use of Weak Optimal Transport in generative modeling.
In depth analysis of the 3DGS method from a conceptual and experimental point of view to understand its limitations and potential improvements.
Conducted a theoretical and experimental analysis of the latent space in Variational Autoencoders using Riemannian geometry.
Explored a texture synthesis model that applies local transformations to Gaussian random fields by solving a semi-discrete optimal transport problem on patch space.
Explored limitations and extensions of a clustering method for multivariate time series based on the Common Principal Component Analysis (CPCA) method.
Neural network library with automatic differentiation made from scratch in Julia.
In depth study of the mathematical foundations of conditional diffusion models (see the post on this website). We also started a PyTorch implementation, which is not complete.
R package that allows to perform variable selection with a thresholded version of the Sliced Inverse Regression (SIR) method. (paper in progress)
