About me
I am a Theory PhD student in the Computer Science department of Columbia University, where my adviser is Pr. Rocco Servedio. Prior to that, I received a M.Sc. in Computer Science from the Parisian Master of Research in Computer Science, in Paris, and an engineering degree from one of France's "Grand Schools", the Ecole Centrale Paris.Here is a link to my résumé (updated 09/24/2012).
Research Interests
My main areas of study are Learning Theory, Property Testing and Randomized Algorithms. However, I do also have a strong interest in Online and Approximation Algorithms, as well as Stochastic Processes.Teaching
