I am a dedicated computer scientist passionate about Computer Vision. During my Ph.D. at Université Laval in Canada, I focused on developing advanced neural network architectures for Visual Place Recognition and collecting large-scale datasets to train them.

Prior to my doctoral studies, I majored in Software Engineering, where I developed a solid foundation in Problem Solving, Algorithms, and Combinatorial Optimization.
