Neurips 2024 - Symmetries in Overparametrized Neural Networks: A Mean Field View

December 13, 2024

Conference Talk, NeurIPS Conference (online), Vancouver, Canada

As a spotlight paper at NeurIPS, we presented our work in a 5 min video which was available through the conference website, as well as a poster in one of the main poster sessions. The talk outlined the different elements of our paper (together with Joaquín Fontbona) on the effect of data-symmetries in neural-network training at the Mean Field level.

Probability Seminar - Symmetries in Overparametrized Neural Networks: A Mean Field View

November 06, 2024

Talk, Universidad de Chile, Mathematical Engineering Department, Santiago, Chile

I presented the contents of our accepted Neurips paper on the Probability Seminar from the FCFM at Universidad de Chile. It was a ~50 minute talk in which I outlined all the different elements and the main results from the paper. The slides are available here, and the full presentation is available here.

AAMAS 2023 - A Hotelling-Downs Game for Strategic Candidacy with Binary Issues

June 02, 2023

Conference Talk, AAMAS Conference, London, United Kingdom

In this talk I presented the work we developed with Vincent Mousseau and Anaëlle Wilczynski on the study of strategic candidacy on a Hotelling-Downs Game for elections which model voters as having binary preferences over a given set of issues. The slides of the talk can be found here.

Fête de la Science 2021 - Les maths et la prise de décision

October 07, 2021

Tutorial, Collège Roland Garros, Saint-Germain-lès-Arpajon, France

As part of the Parcours Recherche program, I participated in the “Fête de la Science 2021” together with a team consisting of Jean-Baptiste Dubois, Clément Mosser, Pedro Sotomayor and myself. We presented a tutorial to the 4th grade students from Collège Roland Garros on the topic of “Mathematics for Decision-Making” (“Les maths et la prise de décision”), and included a didactic game to illustrate the phenomenon of strategic voting. We also showed a video in which some of the key concepts were explained; the video can be found here (it’s in French).
