Software
I contribute to the Python API of the GUDHI library, where I release tools to deal with persistence diagrams (PDs) using Optimal Transport based on algorithms developed by the OT community, adapted to PDs.

Some Material
- I wrote a TDA tutorial. An html preview is available here, and you can download a zip archive here. This material was produced for the AMS-MRC week I co-organized.
- My Ph.D. thesis manuscript can be found here. You can find the corresponding slides there, and a video recording of the defense itself there.
Reviewer activity in conferences and journals
I usually review for main conferences in ML (NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, AISTATS) and computational geometry (SoCG), along with journals on that fields and more broadly in applied mathematics (FoCM, JMLR, Mathematical Programming, JACT, etc.).
I was area chair for ATMCS 2025.
