Personal information

I hold a Ph.D. in computational mechanics from the University Paris-Saclay (ENS Paris-Saclay), where I worked at the LMPS (Laboratory of Mechanics Paris-Saclay). You can learn more about my background on my [CV].

My main research interest consists of solving highly non-linear problems using model-order reduction techniques such as the Proper Generalised Decomposition (PGD). I've recently become interested in hybridising classical model-order reduction methods with machine learning approaches. Combining tensor decomposition and interpretable neural networks enables efficient and robust solving of large non-linear problems. The ultimate goal of my research during this postdoctoral position is to achieve individualisation and real-time simulation of a lung model using model-order
reduction techniques thus going from theoretical tools to clinical application for patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
