From 2020 to 2023, I conducted my Ph.D. at the University of Bordeaux (France), under the
supervision of Romain BOURQUI ; in close
colaboration with Romain GIOT and David AUBER.
From 1st October 2019 to 31st September 2020, I was Research Engineer in the BKB team of the LaBRI.
I obtained my Master degree in Computer Sciences (Software Engineering) in 2019 at the University of Bordeaux.
Information Visualization, Deep Learning, Graph Visualisation, Automated Evaluation
My research interests are centered around Information Visualization (VIS) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) (Machine Learning [ML] and Deep Learning [DL]) ; more specifically AI applications for VIS (AI4VIS).
With the outbreak of IoT, the amount and complexity of collected data keeps increasing. This makes their
efficient restitution even more important and many visualization techniques that yesterday enabled their
exploration are now outdated. Hence, the VIS community keeps on defining new visualizations and
guidelines that scale to these complex data.
In this context, the objective of my research is to propose new solutions, based on Deep
Learning, to automatically generate and/or evaluate visualizations. For these two tasks,
the heterogeneity of modern data makes it difficult to design efficient algorithms/protocols that can be
generalized to any datum. On the other hand, DL techniques require large amounts of data to train
and become efficient. Leveraging Deep Learning techniques in the context of VIS could enable to
explore more exhaustively the parameters space of visualization techniques ; and define
automated and reproducible criteria for VIS evaluations.
Leveraging the background of the BKB team of LaBRI, most applications of my AI4VIS researches are dedicated to Graph Visualization.
