Chief Research Scientist, Docent
I am born in Tournai, Belgium on April 16th, 1972. I got my Master Degree in Mechanical Engineering in the Universite de Louvain-la-Neuve in Belgium in 1997 and a second Master Degree in Control in the same university in 1997. I got my PhD degree in 2003 in Louvain-la-Neuve under the supervision of Prof. Vincent Wertz and Michel Verleysen. I am now a Docent and senior researcher in ICS, HUT.
Machine Learning, Time-Series Prediction, Environmental Modeling, Industrial Applications, Information Security, Variable Selection, GPU, ... Too many things indeed, but luckily I work 50 hours a week :)
I am the instructor of Yu Qi, Yoan Miche, Elia Liitiäinen, Mark van Heeswijk, Emil Eirola, Dusan Sovilj and Antti Sorjamaa. I hope that soon some of them will complete their PhD.
