I am a research engineer in the data analysis laboratory of the CEA-Saclay LIST. I did my PhD at CEA Saclay in the CosmoStat Laboratory under the supervision of Jean-Luc Starck from 2013 to 2016. My PhD subject was “Advanced methods and algorithms for high precision astronomical imaging”.
Research Interests
During my thesis, I worked on PSFs field estimation and galaxy shape measurements for weak lensing, given the time and spatial dependency of a telescope PSF, and the undersampling issues.
My main interests are: signal processing, sparsity, manifold learning, optimization, numerical optimal transport, low complexity signals, statistics and data mining.
Education
I graduated from Télécom Bretagne in 2013, with an engineering degree in information processing and a master of research in image processing. During my studies, I had the opportunity to participate to the Programme First of the Fondation Télécom.
Software
- SPRITE: super-resolution C++ code for PSF and compact sources images.
- RCA: joint super-resolution and dimension reduction python code for PSF and compact sources images.

Activities
- I have worked for the Center of research and Interdisciplinarity (CRI) as a science tutor from 2013 to 2015. My mission was to design and conduct weekly scientific worshops for two primary school students groups. Our project on the Curiosity Rover has been awarded the 2nd prize at the Concours SF2A Découvrir l'Univers , edition 2014. More details can be found here .
