Education

EPITECH - European Institute of Technology
2009 - 2014Engineer’s Degree Computer ScienceEpitech is a DIY school where the 200+ projects you have to do throughout the years matter more than lectures (which occurs after the project has been announced giving you time to think for yourself for a while). The projects I found the most interesting were:Eternity II: Where the goal was to try to solve the Eternity II puzzle (10661 possibilities + 2 million cash prize). Still unresolved, the closest solution found was 467 matching tiles over 480, in 2008.

This is a project I’m likely to try again.Clustering: This project’s goal was to extracts layers from an image using clustering’s techniques. We tried an original approach (i.e. not k-means) by using the mean-shift algorithm.Bistromathique: (out of nostalgia) which was the first project we had on the 4th week of school, after learning C. The point was to make a calculator to handle very large number, store in strings. Voir moins

Stockholms universitet
2012 - 2013Computer ScienceThe exchange year at Stockholm's University was a truly amazing experience, allowing me to meet people from around Europe and the world. Never a year has been so diverse in topics to learn, both cultural and technical. This helped make me realize there were much more out there and triggered the urge to always push the boundaries of my knowledge and to always want learning more.Courses:Programming paradigmsMultimodal interactionsSecurity and ForensicsCognitive Psychology
