I am a professor in the Computer Science department at Ecole Polytechnique in France. I am a member of the GeomeriX group, joint between the LIX research laboratory at Ecole Polytechnique and INRIA. My current research is mainly supported by my ERC Starting Grant: EXPROTEA.
My research is primarily related to geometric (3D) shape analysis with emphasis on Deep Learning for non-rigid shape comparison and processing. In the past, I have worked on topics including shape classification and retrieval, non-rigid shape-matching, comparison, denoising and symmetry detection especially on 3D point cloud and triangle mesh data. I'm also very interested in image processing, Computer Graphics and Computer Vision in general. You can find some of my work on the Publications page.
