Research interests

  • Expressive speech synthesis
  • Computational complexity
  • Parallel processing


Short bio

I have achieved a DEA (Diplôme d'Etudes Approfondies, equivalent to a Master of Science degree) in Computer Science at the Université des Sciences et Technologies de Lille 1 (Lille, France) in 1996, and a Engineer diploma at ISEN (Institut Supérieur d'Electronique du Nord, Lille, France).

I have defended my PhD in computer science in November, 2000 as a member of the LIFL (Lille, France), working on computational complexity, and anytime algorithms under the supervision of Pr. Max Dauchet (LIFL) and Pr. Philippe Vanheeghe (LAGIS), and the collaboration of Patrick Taillibert, Thalès Detexis.

Now, since September 2001, after one year of temporary teacher cum researcher (ATER), I am assistant professor at IUT de Lannion (Lannion, France) as part of University of Rennes 1. My research activity is done at IRISA, as part of the team Expression since 2014 (previously in the team Cordial from 2001 to 2013).

First, I have focused my research on learning by analogy and its algorithmic problems. Now, my research interests are speech, computational complexity and high speed processing.
