Hi there and welcome! I am currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Inria Grenoble-Rhône-Alpes where I am very fortunate to be mentored by Senior Researcher Florence Forbes, Senior Lecturer Hien Duy Nguyen, and Associate Researcher Julyan Arbel. I finished my Ph.D. Degree in Statistics and Data Science at Normandie Univ, UNICAEN, CNRS, LMNO, Caen, France in December 2021 where I am very fortunate to be advised by Professor Faicel Chamroukhi and Senior Lecturer Hien Duy Nguyen. During my Ph.D. research, I am also very fortunate to collaborate with Professor Geoff McLachlan focusing in mixture models. I received a Visiting PhD Fellowship at the Inria Grenoble-Rhône-Alpes Research Centre, working with Senior Researcher Florence Forbes and Associate Researcher Julyan Arbel in the Statify team under a project LANDER (from September 2020 to January 2021).
A central theme of my research focuses on Data Science, at the interface of:

Description: IELTS – the International English Language Testing System – is the world’s most popular English language test. It is developed by some of the world’s leading experts in language assessment and evaluates all of your English skills — reading, writing, listening and speaking. The test reflects how you’ll use English to study, work and live in an English speaking environment. You can take the test at any of our official test centres across the world.
Total Score: $795/990$ (Listening: $410/495$ + Reading: $385/495$).
Description: The TOEIC Listening and Reading Test measures listening and reading skills for beginner to advanced levels of English.
Instructor: Andrew Ng. (Stanford University).
Description: Machine learning is the science of getting computers to act without being explicitly programmed. In the past decade, machine learning has given us self-driving cars, practical speech recognition, effective web search, and a vastly improved understanding of the human genome. Machine learning is so pervasive today that you probably use it dozens of times a day without knowing it. Many researchers also think it is the best way to make progress towards human-level AI. In this class, you will learn about the most effective machine learning techniques, and gain practice implementing them and getting them to work for yourself. More importantly, you’ll learn about not only the theoretical underpinnings of learning, but also gain the practical know-how needed to quickly and powerfully apply these techniques to new problems. Finally, you’ll learn about some of Silicon Valley’s best practices in innovation as it pertains to machine learning and AI. This course provides a broad introduction to machine learning, datamining, and statistical pattern recognition. The course will also draw from numerous case studies and applications, so that you’ll also learn how to apply learning algorithms to building smart robots (perception, control), text understanding (web search, anti-spam), computer vision, medical informatics, audio, database mining, and other areas.
Topics include:
(i) Supervised learning (parametric or non-parametric algorithms, support vector machines, kernels, neural networks).
(ii) Unsupervised learning (clustering, dimensionality reduction, recommender systems, deep learning).
(iii) Best practices in machine learning (bias/variance theory; innovation process in machine learning and AI).
