Research

I am interested in large network analysis and focused my thesis around community detection. The class of networks I've studied is very broad, from social networks of twitter users or mobile phone communications to picture graphs for image segmentation or video tracking.

If you have any kind of data you want to analyse, there is definitely a network representation that will suit your needs. Don't hesitate to contact me.

I'm currently wrapping all my papers and trying to write down a thesis.
