Short Presentation
I was born in Saint-Etienne in 1987. At the end of my studies, I obtained a Master's degree "Web Intelligence" in Computer Science at the
University of Saint-Étienne in June 2010. I defended my PhD, entitled
Nouvelles Approches Itératives avec Garanties Théoriques pour l'Adaptation de Domaine non Supervisée on the 11th of july 2014.
My supervisors were
Marc Sebban and
Amaury Habrard, and I was a member of the
Machine Learning team of
Hubert Curien Lab. I also was a member of the
PASCAL2 Network.
Research Activities
Brief Introduction
My main research topic is Domain Adaptation from Structured Data, applied on Classification and Regression problems. Domain Adaptation is a subtopic of Machine Learning, consisting in adapting a single learned model on different domains.
Projects
I have been involved in
ANR LAMPADA (Learning Algorithms, Models an sPArse representations for structured DAta), a research project between
Hubert Curien Lab in Saint-Etienne,
INRIA in Lille,
LIF in Marseille and
LIP6 in Paris. LAMPADA mainly focused on high dimensional learning problems with large sets or dynamics of structured data.

Teaching
During my Ph.D thesis and my A.T.E.R. contracts, I have given some courses at the
Faculty of Sciences and Techniques in the
Computer Science Department and in the
Entreprises Administration Institute of the University of Saint-Étienne. For now, I have teached:
- Advanced Internet Techniques
- Databases management
- Functional programming (Caml language)
- Formal languages
- Imperative Programming (C language)
- Introduction to Computer Science
- Introduction to Office
- Object-oriented programming (JAVA language)
- Perl programming
- UNIX programming
