About Théo

I am a Research Engineer specializing in Scientific Machine Learning (Scientific ML) and Urban Computing. I partner with Deep Tech companies, Smart City stakeholders, and research laboratories facing complex technical bottlenecks that demand rigorous methodology and advanced algorithmic design.

Positioned at the intersection of fundamental research and software engineering, my core approach consists of building robust, explainable AI models that directly integrate physical laws or domain-specific mathematical constraints, effectively overcoming the limitations of traditional "black-box" neural networks.

Experience

  • University of California, Berkeley
    Visiting researcher
    TECH
    March 2025 - October 2025 (7 months)
    Berkeley, CA, USA
    Visiting Student Researcher
    – Developed an end-to-end ML pipeline for city-scale human mobility prediction, inferring hourly origin-destination (OD) flows from heterogeneous spatial datasets across the Bay Area, Boston, and Los Angeles. – Designed a Graph Attention Network (GAT) with embedded physical constraints (gravity laws, distance decay) for robust spatiotemporal forecasting of OD flows. – Explored purpose-decomposed OD flow prediction using the TimeGeo activity-based dataset, yielding promising preliminary results on temporal dynamics of work, home and shopping trips. – Developed reproducible experiment workflows, ablation studies and evaluation pipelines; contributed to publication-grade research deliverables under Prof. Marta C. González and Prof. Maria Laura Delle Monache.
