About Me

Computer Vision and Deep Learning Engineer — ESIR, Université de Rennes.

I build intelligent systems that understand, reconstruct, and analyze visual data. My work focuses on image processing, computer vision, information theory, and deep learning — with strong interests in visual reconstruction, inverse problems, and generative models.

What drives me: bridging theory and practice by combining mathematical modeling, research-driven experimentation, and scalable high-performance implementation.

Currently seeking a PhD or full-time position in computer vision, image processing, and machine learning.

Outside of work: basketball, football, and following the latest in AI research.

Research Interests

My work sits at the intersection of mathematics, signal processing, and deep learning. Here are the areas I think about most deeply.

Computer Vision

Visual understanding, recognition, and reconstruction — from classical geometry to modern deep learning pipelines.

Generative Models & Diffusion

Exploring score-based models, diffusion processes, and VAEs for image synthesis and inverse problem solving.

Information Theory

Rate-distortion theory, entropy coding, and the mathematical foundations of image and video compression.

Image & Video Processing

Neural video compression, codec design (JPEG, H.264, HEVC), and real-time processing pipelines.

3D Reconstruction & Multi-view Geometry

Learning-based and geometry-based methods for recovering 3D structure from 2D observations.

Inverse Problems

Denoising, deblurring, super-resolution — using optimization and deep priors to recover signals from degraded observations.

GPU Computing & Optimization

CUDA kernels, parallel algorithms, and high-performance pipelines for compute-intensive visual workloads.

Medical Image Analysis

Segmentation, classification, and computer-aided diagnosis applied to clinical imaging datasets.
