Biography

I come from Nkongsamba, a farming town in Cameroon (Africa).
I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Univeristy of Conocordia and at Mila under the supervision of PhD student in Machine Learning at the University of Namur under the supervision of Prof. Eugene Belilovsky. We work on robustness of interpretability methods and debiasing mechanisms of models/data.
Previously, I obtained my PhD (in Belguim) in November 2022 under the supervision of Benoît Frénay and Paul Temple. My PhD focused on the enforcement of constraints on machine learning models to make them more easily explainable and trustworthy.

Interests
  • Constraint for interpretability, explainability and trustworthiness
  • Statistical guarantees in machine learning
  • Optimisation for machine learning
