About Christopher

Laureate of the FINTOC data science competition (automatic document structure understanding) in 2021
Author of the book "Deep learning with Theano" in 2017
15,000 unique visitors on christopher5106 github
Graduate of the "mathematics, computer vision and machine learning" (MVA) master's program from ENS Cachan in the 4th year of Ecole Polytechnique

I have worked on numerous projects and POCs, starting from my expertise in computer vision (pedestrian detection, automatic analysis of invoices, identity documents, license plates, counterfeits, visual search, image-based geolocation, ...) and then in natural language (automatic document analysis, contracts, expense line classification, chatbots, deduplication of legal entity or product databases, ...).

I am available to support you, either as a Python/Machine Learning/AI/data science/data engineer, or in the upstream phase of your projects to discuss feasibility: nothing beats a good study before starting.
