Short bio

Graduated from ESIEE Paris in 2002 in the field of Signal Processing and Telecommunications, Nicolas Boutry has spent over four years in Switzerland at EPFL where he did research on MR images of human brains and on image compression. He joined then a company called MyCO2 to work on pattern recognition. He realized his Ph.D. thesis on well-composed images from 2014 to 2016 at EPITA on the Olena project and at the LIGM at ESIEE Paris. He is now associate professor and co-chief of the Data Science and Artificial Intelligence (SCIA) specialization at EPITA.

My curriculum vitae is available HERE.
