About me
I am a CNRS research scientist (“chargé de recherche”), based at the Laboratoire d'Informatique Gaspard-Monge.
Before joining CNRS, I was a postdoctoral researcher working with Lorenzo Rosasco at Università di Genova, Italy.
I hold a PhD in Statistics from CREST (Center for Research in Economics and Statistics) and Institut Polytechnique de Paris, where I was supervised by Arnak Dalalyan and Victor-Emmanuel Brunel.
My PhD dissertation is available here.
I have primarily worked on fairness in machine learning from a statistical learning perspective. More broadly, I am interested in designing and analyzing learning algorithms that incorporate key aspects such as fairness, robustness, and privacy.
