Education and Researcher for the University of New Caledonia
Countries of Work Experience: France, Austria, Germany, New Caledonia
Description: Funded by French Minister of overseas this project aims at discovering and modeling the dynamic of dengue epidemics. This study focuses
on New Caledonia and Nouméa city.
Description: Funded by CNRT (National Center of Technological research), this project studies quantification of upstream flows and their impact on downstream
transport of solid matter in different geomorphoclimatic contexts.
Description: Funded by French National Research Agency (ANR), this project aims at providing to geologists a semi--automatic and complete process for monitoring soil erosion. This process will be based on multi--temporal very high
resolutions satellite images coupled with digital elevation model (DEM), sensor data and/or expert knowledge. The project will focus more precisely on two important aspects of this process: segmentation of satellite images based on collaborative methods, and construction of descriptive (patterns, clustering, …) and predictive (decision trees, …) spatio-- temporal models. New methods, algorithms and softwares on environmental data will be proposed to assist
experts in their knowledge discovery.
Collaboration in the dry forest program with Agronomic Institute of New Caledonia
Description: This project funded by KNS (Koniambo Nickel SAS) is a preliminary project on environmental data warehousing and knowledge discovery. It aims at investigating spatial and temporal data warehouses (SOLAP: Spatial On-Line Analytical Processing) solutions on an hydrological and marine databases. It involves the implementation of a data warehouse in order to cross thematic data: hydrogeological data, marine data etc.
