After poursuing a very French engeeniring cursus with "classes preparatoires" and Ecole polytechnique, I am finishing a Master in Computer Science at EPFL. For my master thesis, I am curently working at Unity Grenoble on layered materials.
I am currently doing my master thesis at Unity Grenoble. I work on the rendering of layered materials with lambertian interfaces. Indeed, Unity Grenoble has developed an approximate BSDF model for layered materials (such as in coated paints), in the paper Efficient Rendering of Layered Materials usingan Atomic Decomposition with Statistical Operators by Laurent Belcour. The goal here is to extend the BSDf model to handle Lambertian interfaces in the same framework.

DUrong my studies at EPFL I worked in Wenzel Jakob's lab. I focused on extending the Specular Manifold Sampling method; this method is used for the rendering of caustics and glints. I worked on two project: firstly, adding Multi Importance Sampling in the framework. Secondly, I studied multi-bounce caustic paths, exploring projection methods for a better convergence.

Ouster is an American lidar technology company headquartered in San Francisco, California.
It builds high-resolution 3D lidar sensors for use in autonomous vehicles, robotics, drones, mapping, defense, and security systems.
I worked on the visualization of lidar's data.
Specializing in Computer Graphics: Rendering, Computational Geometry, Virtual Reality, Computer Vision and Image Processing. Studying also general subjects: Machine Learning, Optimization, Algorithmics
Studied in the top-ranking university-level school in science and engineering. Specialized in Computer Sciences: Computer Graphics, Computer Vision and Machine Learning.
Studied for three years in an intensive program in science to prepare for nationwide competitive exams. Main subjects: Mathematics and Physics.
During the course given by Wenzel Jakob at EPFL, I Implemented some features in a physically-based renderer. Here is my final rendered image, on the theme “Dreams”. I was selected as a runner-up of the EPFL Rendering Competition 2020.

This project was based on the paper Projective
dynamics:
Projective
dynamics: Fusing constraint projections for fast
simulation.
The Projective Dynamics framework computes a local optimization, with a trade-off between Momentum and Elastic Energy. Here, the goal was to extend it to add collision.
A deformable sphere mesh was used, surrounded by constraints: the pool table and the other (rigid) balls.Friction is added to make the mesh ball roll, a billiard game scene is then created, then texturing is added to improve the overall appearance of the scene.
After a seminar on Expressive modeling, I implemented a modeling system for flying machines in JavaScript, using Three.js.
The chosen base machine was the one for the Miyasaki movie Castle in the Sky. It is designed such that the user can draw the two profiles of the top balloon, which is then automatically
created. Then the cabin, rudder and wings can then be created by deformation of a polygon, and a tool enable the user to add propellers at any places.
The flying machine is then animated and one prototype was 3D printed.
