Timeline

[2022-now] - Jellysmack

Research scientist

Designed, prototyped and put into production an engine with artificial intelligence to summarize a video.
Internal consultant for the description of images in sentences, tags and other descriptors.

[2018-2021] - Paris Descartes University

PhD in Computer Science

Thesis title : Image time series analysis involving spatial and temporal information

New constellations of satellites acquire images with a high spatial, spectral and temporal resolution around the world leading to Satellite Image Time Series (SITS). During my thesis, our objective is to analyse the image time serie in order to extract features that enrich the orginal data and perform an application, such as a classification, by maximazing the accuracy
