Postdoctoral Researcher in Deep Learning Theory

New York University and Flatiron Institute

Biography

I’m a Faculty Fellow in the Center for Data Science at NYU and a Research Fellow in the Center for Computational Neuroscience at the Flatiron Institute. I’m interested in improving our scientific understanding of deep learning, e.g., understand how it escapes the curse of dimensionality, particularly in the context of image generative models.

Between 2019 and 2023, I was completing my PhD at École Normale Supérieure in Paris under the supervision of Pr. Stéphane Mallat, entitled Towards a Mathematical Understanding of Deep Convolutional Neural Networks. You can find my thesis here and the defense slides here.
