Research that crosses representation and action.

I am an engineering student in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence at INSA Rouen Normandy and a Master's student in Machine Learning for Artificial Intelligence at the University of Rouen Normandy.

At InterDigital, I researched learned decoder-side filter selection for VVC (H.266) to reduce compression and quantization artifacts, and authored and filed more than 10 patent applications. At Enedis, my part-time capstone project combines synthetic customer load profiles with measured substation data to build a grid digital twin, with ongoing work on spatial and temporal profile adjustments.

Seeking a six-month research internship starting in April 2027

Geometry-Aware Joint-Embedding EEG

Hackathon finalist · Top 5/25 teams

Selected as one of 100 participants from 650+ applicants for a Yann LeCun-sponsored, 24-hour hackathon on JEPAs and world models. Our team finished among the top five of 25 teams. Built a model that learns from unlabeled EEG recordings. Explored whether training that respects the curved geometry of covariance matrices leads to more structured representations.
