Laboratoire de Mécanique des Structures et des Systèmes Couplés
I am a full professor at CNAM Paris, working within the AVA Team (Acoustics, Vibrations, and Audio) at the Laboratory of Structural Mechanics and Coupled Systems .
To date, I have supervised or co-supervised 10 doctoral theses (8 defended, 2 in progress), and have led the ANR Deeplomatics project until June 2022.
I defended my HDR in December 2019. My habilitation thesis has been deposited on HAL , and I have made available a video with chapters of the defense as well as the slides in html format.
My research activities focus on deep learning for acoustics and audio, inverse problems in acoustics, and multichannel signal processing.
